How to round decimal field value to two decimals in business rule

[kchorny]

I'm working on a way to properly bill customers for work done after hours and on holidays.   In my table, I have a field of decimal type - u_hours_worked.   When I look at a record in this table, I see the Hours Worked with 2 decimal places, but the actual value can contain many decimal points.   When I try to display this field in a message, all decimal points are displayed - I want to round to 2 there as well.  

I tried this but it is returning undefined and I've been unable to find another solution.

var myHours = current.u_hours_worked;

myHours = myHours.toFixed(2);

TIA!

Hi Karla,

You might want to ensure it is a floating point number first.

var myHours = parseFloat(current.u_hours_worked);

myHours = myHours.toFixed(2);
