Okay Lungo, I understand. The issue is that in most cases, 1 decimal is appropriate. Then, some people want no decimals and some want no rounding at all.
I assume your use-case is that you save a pivot table (report table) as a favorite, then use it as source for a financial standard report designed in ireport. I propose this: We introduce a new option in pivot table module (and in analytics api) called "Skip rounding of values". When ticket, we do not round off the values at all, providing full precision for values (we are using double<http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Double.html>as value type in the api). Then, you can select this option for your table and leave it to ireport to round off to the appropriate number of decimals (use the number format). How does that sound to you?
