Limiting to 2 decimal points

  • The total quantity(sum(woitem.qtytarget) as total) result set is showing more than 6 numbers after the decimal point (example:442.2565485). How can I limit it to 2. (example:442.25)

    select wo.num, sysuser.username,sum(woitem.qtytarget) as total

    from woitem

    join wo

    ON wo.id = woitem.woid

    Join moitem

    on moitem.id = woitem.moitemid

    Join mo

    ON mo.id = moitem.moid

    LEFT JOIN SYSUSER ON mo.userid = sysuser.id

    group by sysuser.username, num

    ORDER BY CAST( REPLACE( wo.num, ':', '.') as decimal(12, 3))

    Just simply change your query to something like the following in order to convert it to a data type with only two decimals. Ensure that you make it big enough to hold the highest value that you would see from the sum.

    select wo.num, sysuser.username,CONVERT(DECIMAL(12,2), sum(woitem.qtytarget)) as total

    from woitem

    join wo

    ON wo.id = woitem.woid

    Join moitem

    on moitem.id = woitem.moitemid

    Join mo

    ON mo.id = moitem.moid

    LEFT JOIN SYSUSER ON mo.userid = sysuser.id

    group by sysuser.username, num

    ORDER BY CAST( REPLACE( wo.num, ':', '.') as decimal(12, 3))
