    I have a Total calculated field that has other calculated fields in its formula. I have all the calculated fields prec function to one decimal. The Total calculation isn’t correct based on the other calculated fields. It appears there is a rounding issue with the calculated fields.

    Can you help?

    For example, let’s say I have a total calculated fieldname6 that utilizes a calculated fieldname3. If fieldname3 is 1.6 then the form is rounding it to 2. Since fieldname6 is using 2 instead of 1.6, my calculated total for fieldname6 is highly distorted (I’m multiplying by very large numbers).

    Why does the form round fieldname3 to a whole number? I can’t use fieldname3 in other calculations!

    Thanks,
    Rick

    Hi Rick,

    Yes, the calculated fields can be used as part of other calculations.

    That rounding that you are experiencing should be applied due to other code on the form. Could you open a private ticket (it’s free) at http://wordpress.dwbooster.com/support and provide access to the form to check it in detail?

    Thank you!
