Dear all,

 

I get error PCHG != (AVAL - BASE)/BASE * 100 for following values:

  AVAL  = 0.049473684200

  BASE  = 0.049484536100

  PCHG = -0.021929881200

In the report I get following details: PCHG, AVAL, BASE : -0.02192988, 0.04947368, 0.04948454.

Is it possible that the validator first rounds AVAL and BASE to 8 decimals before determining PCHG?

Why is this rounding done? It causes false errors in the report. 

 

Thanks for looking into this.

Jeroen

Hi Jeroen, 

This is a value rounding issue. Each system has different settings.

For example, as a test I used Windows Calculator and got "-0.02193008336988". MS Excel produced "-0.021929881".

P21 validation engine is still not smart enough to handle such cases. We are working on tuning it. Meanwhile, consider this as a false-positive message.

Sorry for inconvenience,

Regards, 

Sergiy
