Round

Use the Round transformation in Infobridge

Use the Round transformation to simplify numeric values by reducing the number of decimal places displayed in a measure. This transformation improves report readability while preserving the underlying data for analysis.

The Round transformation provides three rounding methods:

• Round rounds values to the nearest value based on the specified precision.

• Round Up rounds values by using the Round Up method.

• Round Down rounds values by using the Round Down method.

You can find the Round transformation on the Transform tab.
