Consider the following numbers.
7870.2
8220.0
I need to remove decimal points if the value ends with .0. If it ends with .2 then it should keep the value as it is.
I have used ceiling but it removes all the values after decimal.
How can I write a select query in which I can add some condition for this?
Generally speaking you should not do this in your dB. This is an app or reporting side operation. The dB is made to store and query information. It is not made to format/string manipulate information.
use right within a case statement and:
DECLARE #val decimal(5,1)
SET #val = 7870.0
Select
Case
When right(#val,1)<> '0' then
cast(#val as varchar)
else
cast(cast(#val as int) as varchar)
End
output: 7870
EDIT: I could write :
Case
When right(#val,1)<> '0' then
#val
else
cast(#val as int) -- or floor(#val)
End
but because return type of case statement is the highest precedence type from the set of given types, so the output for second version is: 7870.0 not 7870, that's why I convert it to i.e varchar in when clauses, and it can be converted outside of case statement, I mean cast ((case when...then...else... end) as datatype)
Cast the number as a float, using float(24) to increase precision:
DECLARE #t table(number decimal(10,1))
INSERT #t values(7870.2),(8220.0)
SELECT cast(number as float(24))
FROM #t
Result:
7870,2
8220
Here below goes a sample:
declare #1 decimal(4,3)
select #1 = 2.9
select case when SUBSTRING (PARSENAME(#1,1), 1, 1) = 0 then FLOOR(#1) else #1 end
Change the #1 in the select statement with your database field name.

The solution seems to be simple:
SELECT CONVERT (FLOAT, PAYLOAD)
I have the following query that gives a rounded result. How can I modify this to
Stop rounding
Display to 2 decimal places. E.g 3.456 -> 3.45
SELECT SUM(Invoice_Details.Amount) AS TotalNet_C FROM Invoice_Details WHERE Invoice_Details.Invoice_Number = ||InvNo||
To format it to 2 digits you can e.g. convert it to currency.
SELECT CAST(SUM(Invoice_Details.Amount) AS money) AS TotalNet_C
FROM Invoice_Details
WHERE Invoice_Details.Invoice_Number = ||InvNo||
For be more specific you can use CONVERT.
Check this for details: http://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/ms187928.aspx
About rounding: You want to crop the digits, not round them:
SELECT CAST(CAST(3.456 * 100 AS int) as float)/100
This will do it. Your case then
SELECT CAST(CAST(CAST(SUM(Invoice_Details.Amount) * 100 AS int) as float)/100 AS money) AS TotalNet_C
FROM Invoice_Details
WHERE Invoice_Details.Invoice_Number = ||InvNo||
you can simply do this for rounding your value
Str(ColumnName, 10, 2)
10-- this is for total length of your value.
2-- this is for how many decimal you want
declare #Num decimal(6,3)
set #Num = 3.456
select LEFT(round(#Num, 2, 1),4)
OR
select CAST(round(#Num, 2, 1)AS MONEY)
I think u should to convert value before sum_function and u can use parameters of the numeric/decimal, just like this:
select SUM(TRY_CONVERT(decimal(18,2), value) from TestTable ...
I am getting result as decimal in stored procedure. If I am getting result as 123.45,
I want to split it into 123 and 45. Can anybody help?
use SQL function FLOOR() for getting integer part
and subtract that from the original for the decimal part
You can also make use of ROUND instead of FLOOR.
See section C. Using ROUND to truncate for trucate, and then subtract that from the original.
Be aware that using FLOOR on negative numbers might not give you the required result.
Have a look at this example
DECLARE #Dec DECIMAL(12,8)
SET #Dec = -123.45
SELECT FLOOR(#DEc)
select round(#Dec, 0, 1)
try this;
DECLARE #result DECIMAL(8,2) = 123.45
SELECT CAST(round(#result,0) AS FLOAT)
SELECT REPLACE(#result % 1 ,'0.','')
OR
DECLARE #result decimal(8,2) = 123.45
select PARSENAME(#result, 2) AS LeftSideValue, PARSENAME(#result, 1) AS RightSideValue
I need to return two fields from a database concatenated as 'field1-field2'. The second field is an int, but needs to be returned as a fixed length of 5 with leading 0's. The method i'm using is:
SELECT Field1 + '-' + RIGHT('0000' + CAST(Field2 AS varchar),5) FROM ...
Is there a more efficient way to do this?
That is pretty much the way: Adding Leading Zeros To Integer Values
So, to save following the link, the query looks like this, where #Numbers is the table and Num is the column:
SELECT RIGHT('000000000' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(8),Num), 8) FROM #Numbers
for negative or positive values
declare #v varchar(6)
select #v = -5
SELECT case when #v < 0
then '-' else '' end + RIGHT('00000' + replace(#v,'-',''), 5)
Another way (without CAST or CONVERT):
SELECT RIGHT(REPLACE(STR(#NUM),' ','0'),5)
If you can afford/want to have a function in your database you could use something like:
CREATE FUNCTION LEFTPAD
(#SourceString VARCHAR(MAX),
#FinalLength INT,
#PadChar CHAR(1))
RETURNS VARCHAR(MAX)
AS
BEGIN
RETURN
(SELECT Replicate(#PadChar, #FinalLength - Len(#SourceString)) + #SourceString)
END
I would do it like this.
SELECT RIGHT(REPLICATE('0', 5) + CAST(Field2 AS VARCHAR(5),5)
Not necessarily all that "Easier", or more efficient, but better to read. Could be optimized to remove the need for "RIGHT"
If you want to get a consistent number of total strings in the final result by adding different number of zeros, here is a little bit modification (for vsql)
SELECT
CONCAT(
REPEAT('0', 9-length(TO_CHAR(var1))),
CAST(var1 AS VARCHAR(9))
) as var1
You can replace 9 by any number for your need!

I'm trying to determine the best way to truncate or drop extra decimal places in SQL without rounding. For example:
declare #value decimal(18,2)
set #value = 123.456
This will automatically round #value to be 123.46, which is good in most cases. However, for this project, I don't need that. Is there a simple way to truncate the decimals I don't need? I know I can use the left() function and convert back to a decimal. Are there any other ways?
ROUND ( 123.456 , 2 , 1 )
When the third parameter != 0 it truncates rather than rounds.
Syntax
ROUND ( numeric_expression , length [ ,function ] )
Arguments
numeric_expression
Is an expression of the exact numeric or approximate numeric data
type category, except for the bit data type.
length
Is the precision to which numeric_expression is to be rounded. length must be an expression of type tinyint, smallint, or int. When length is a positive number, numeric_expression is rounded to the number of decimal positions specified by length. When length is a negative number, numeric_expression is rounded on the left side of the decimal point, as specified by length.
function
Is the type of operation to perform. function must be tinyint, smallint, or int. When function is omitted or has a value of 0 (default), numeric_expression is rounded. When a value other than 0 is specified, numeric_expression is truncated.
select round(123.456, 2, 1)
SELECT Cast(Round(123.456,2,1) as decimal(18,2))
Here's the way I was able to truncate and not round:
select 100.0019-(100.0019%.001)
returns 100.0010
And your example:
select 123.456-(123.456%.001)
returns 123.450
Now if you want to get rid of the ending zero, simply cast it:
select cast((123.456-(123.456%.001)) as decimal (18,2))
returns 123.45
Actually whatever the third parameter is, 0 or 1 or 2, it will not round your value.
CAST(ROUND(10.0055,2,0) AS NUMERIC(10,2))
Do you want the decimal or not?
If not, use
select ceiling(#value),floor(#value)
If you do it with 0 then do a round:
select round(#value,2)
Another truncate with no rounding solution and example.
Convert 71.950005666 to a single decimal place number (71.9)
1) 71.950005666 * 10.0 = 719.50005666
2) Floor(719.50005666) = 719.0
3) 719.0 / 10.0 = 71.9
select Floor(71.950005666 * 10.0) / 10.0
Round has an optional parameter
Select round(123.456, 2, 1) will = 123.45
Select round(123.456, 2, 0) will = 123.46
ROUND(number, decimals, operation)
number => Required. The number to be rounded
decimals => Required. The number of decimal places to round number to
operation => Optional. If 0, it rounds the result to the number of decimal. If another value than 0, it truncates the result to the number of decimals. Default value is 0
SELECT ROUND(235.415, 2, 1)
will give you 235.410
SELECT ROUND(235.415, 0, 1)
will give you 235.000
But now trimming0 you can use cast
SELECT CAST(ROUND(235.415, 0, 1) AS INT)
will give you 235
This will remove the decimal part of any number
SELECT ROUND(#val,0,1)
SELECT CAST(Value as Decimal(10,2)) FROM TABLE_NAME;
Would give you 2 values after the decimal point. (MS SQL SERVER)
Another way is ODBC TRUNCATE function:
DECLARE #value DECIMAL(18,3) =123.456;
SELECT #value AS val, {fn TRUNCATE(#value, 2)} AS result
LiveDemo
Output:
╔═════════╦═════════╗
║ val ║ result ║
╠═════════╬═════════╣
║ 123,456 ║ 123,450 ║
╚═════════╩═════════╝
Remark:
I recommend using built-in ROUND function with 3rd parameter set to 1.
I know this is pretty late but I don't see it as an answer and have been using this trick for years.
Simply subtract .005 from your value and use Round(#num,2).
Your example:
declare #num decimal(9,5) = 123.456
select round(#num-.005,2)
returns 123.45
It will automatically adjust the rounding to the correct value you are looking for.
By the way, are you recreating the program from the movie Office Space?
Try like this:
SELECT cast(round(123.456,2,1) as decimal(18,2))
If you desire to take some number like 89.0904987 and turn it into 89.09 by simply omitting the undesired decimal places, simply use the following:
select cast(yourColumnName as decimal(18,2))
The following screenshot is from W3Schools SQL Data Types section, which describes what decimal(18,2) is doing:
Therefore,
select cast(89.0904987 as decimal(18,2))
gives you: 89.09
Please try to use this code for converting 3 decimal values after a point into 2 decimal places:
declare #val decimal (8, 2)
select #val = 123.456
select #val = #val
select #val
The output is 123.46
I think you want only the decimal value,
in this case you can use the following:
declare #val decimal (8, 3)
SET #val = 123.456
SELECT #val - ROUND(#val,0,1)
I know this question is really old but nobody used sub-strings to round. This as advantage the ability to round really long numbers (limit of your string in SQL server which is usually 8000 characters):
SUBSTRING('123.456', 1, CHARINDEX('.', '123.456') + 2)
I think we can go much easier with simpler example solution found in Hackerrank:
Problem statement: Query the greatest value of the Northern Latitudes
(LAT_N) from STATION that is less than 137.2345. Truncate your answer
to 4 decimal places.
SELECT TRUNCATE(MAX(LAT_N),4)
FROM STATION
WHERE LAT_N < 137.23453;
Solution Above gives you idea how to simply make value limited to 4 decimal points. If you want to lower or upper the numbers after decimal, just change 4 to whatever you want.
Mod(x,1) is the easiest way I think.
select convert(int,#value)
