How can you ensure a result displays as an integer instead of a decimal?

Using the ROUND formula ensures that a result displays as an integer instead of a decimal by rounding a number to a specified number of decimal places. When you apply the ROUND function in your calculations, you can control how many decimal places the resulting value will have. If you set it to round to zero decimal places, the output will be a whole number, effectively transforming any decimal into an integer.

For example, if you have a calculation that results in the number 7.9, applying the ROUND function would convert this to 8, which is an integer. It's a straightforward method for handling numerical data when a whole number representation is required.

While changing the format setting can change how numbers are visually represented in the interface, it might not actually convert the underlying data format. Applying a filter is typically used to narrow down results rather than modifying the data format or presentation. Similarly, while SQL queries can be programmed to return integer results, this option does not directly pertain to the specific context of changing the data display format in SuiteAnalytics.
