Solved Calculate and Store Number-Doubles with two Decimal places Only

[Sha]

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to create Sales and Collection System. I have number fields stored as Double. Most of these are calculated in the form level.
In the after update event of the Gross Sales, Taxable Sales, Vat , Withholding Tax and Net of EWT are calculated but I want it to store only the value rounded to two decimal places instead of the exact calculated number.

Gross Sales: Input

Calculations:

Taxable Sales: Gross Sales/(1.12)
Vat: Taxable Sales * 12%
EWT: Taxable Sales * Tax Rate
Net of EWT: Gross Sales - EWT

Hope you could help me with this. Thank you !

Silly me, I forgot the round function Now it's all good.

Just remember that the ROUND function uses Banker's Rounding. Look up here:

You shouldn't store calculated values. From all the fields you listed above only [Gross Sales] and [Tax Rate] should be fields in tables. The rest should live in a query where you do all those calculations and apply the Round() function.
