Hi All, In PB2017 I have set the editmask property of a decimal field as ###.00 in my data object. Also I have set the format as ###.00 for that field in the data object. But when some value such as 461.50 is coming for that field , somehow it is getting rounded off and instead of displaying 461.50 , 462 is getting displayed. Please help me in resolving the issue. I want to display the exact 461.50 decimal value.
