Documentation

Definition

Specifies a numerical value as the increment between the lower and upper limits of a value to be rounded.

Use

You require the following to round a value:

  1. Lower limit: Value that results from rounding down
  2. Upper limit: Value that results from rounding up
  3. Threshold value: Amount equal to the total of lower limit plus half of the rounding unit. From the threshold value, the system uses 5/4 rounding.

Dependencies

Even if you selected 5/4 rounding as the rounding type, the system still determines the upper and lower limits. The rounding type defines the value to be calculated by the function module FIMA_NUMERICAL_VALUE_ROUND.

Example

  • You must round an interest amount of EUR 6.1386 to three decimal places.
    Rounding unit: 0.001
    Rounding type: 5/4 rounding
    => Result: EUR 6.139.
  • You must round CHF 23.03 using 5/4 rounding. The smallest denomination of Swiss francs are 5 Rappen, which means that the rounding unit must be 0.05 if it is to be possible to pay the amount in cash.
    Rounding unit: 0.05
    Rounding type: 5/4 rounding
    => Result: CHF 23.05.
  • A variable, formula-based interest rate is calculated as 5.3468%. This is to be rounded to 1/8th of one percent using 5/4 rounding.
    Rounding unit: 0.125
    Rounding type: 5/4 rounding
    => Result: 5.375%.
  • A variable, formula-based interest rate is calculated as 5.3468%. This is to be rounded down to 1/8th of one percent.
    Rounding unit: 0.125
    Rounding type: Round down
    => Result: 5.250%.
