Using the floor smart value in an math expression - need proper syntax

[Lopes_ Bonnie]

I have this math equation and it is working great, except that I am getting back a 2 decimal place and I only want the whole number

{{#=} {{varDoneCount.asNumber}}/{{varTotalCountSmart.asNumber}}* 100 {{/}}

I am not sure where and how to add the floor option as the documentation I read have it as a .Floor and that does not appear to work

I have been referencing:

https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-math-expressions/

but there is no example when you have the * 100 result that you want to eliminate the decimals

Would I need to do another calc where I take the field value returned from this, then apply the .floor to that?

Hi @Lopes_ Bonnie 

There are two formats for many of the math functions: inline and long-format.

The inline ones can produce unexpected results because the chaining usually preserves the first value's typing, leading to integer division, etc.

For your scenario, I recommend using the long-format of FLOOR(), and as a side benefit the conversion of the variables to numbers is automagic:

{{#=}} FLOOR( {{varDoneCount}} / {{varTotalCountSmart}} * 100 ) {{/}}

If that does not help, please post images of your complete rule, the action where that expression is used, and the audit log details for more context.

Kind regards,
Bill
