Data server rounding issue

Answered
brian mulh asked on January 30, 2024

I have noticed that the floating point numbers coming from the data server that are summed will be something like 0.000000001 rather than 0. I found some tickets mentioning using "maxDecimalPlaces" to format the value which I tried. The value displayed in the pivot table is in fact rounded correctly but we have some javascript code that accesses the value and it is not rounded even with something like "maxDecimalPlaces" = 2.  An example of the code is:
```
var cell = pivot.getCell(data.rowIndex, data.rows.length);
var cellValue = cell.value;
// cellValue == 0.000000001
```
Is there another setting we need to support rounding the data coming from the data server?

Hello,

Thank you for reporting the issue.

We will research the possible solutions and provide the results with our minor release with the ETA February 19th. As a workaround, you can use the cell.label property instead of cell.value to get a 0 value.

You are welcome to contact us in case other questions arise.

Kind regards,
Nadia
