Hi Lars, Thanks for this. Can this also be applied to the data entry screen and data set reports? If you consider a use case that deals with data ranging from 0 - 1. rounding up or down makes the difference quite significant.
This would be a very useful function and would like to request extending beyond just the pivot table.
