justin.watts Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Hello,I have a division formulat that is causing some discrepancies in the final calculation. Here is the formula:$V{GroupByAdvAcadCount}.divide($V{LocationStuCount},5,RoundingMode.HALF_UP).multiply(new BigDecimal(100))I'm basically getting the percentage a group at each row. For 2 distinct groups (2 different rows in the report) I have 284 for $V{LocationStuCount} and 49 for $V{GroupByAdvAcadCount} for both rows/groups. However, the final calculation brings back 17.75% for one group and 17.25% for the other group. How is this possible if the numerator and the denominator are the same for both groups? Both should be 17.25%. Does the formula need to be adjusted in any way?I've had this happen a few times whenever I'm using division with 2 different groups and the reset types are for different groups. Is there any way around this? It only happens when I have multiple rows for a group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
