ROUND, ROUNDUP and ROUNDDOWN
Round the stored value, not just the display, so totals match what people see, and round up, down or to the nearest hundred or thousand.
In this lesson
- A number format only changes how a number looks.
ROUNDUPalways goes up (cases, boxes, people needed).- Round where a number becomes a price or quantity someone sees, then calculate from the rounded value.
