Round and truncate option in query for the calibration report
Jun 9 2008, 11:17 AM EDT
Customer requested that the query selection for the calibration report have a round or truncate option to select, that will only affect the data on the report and not permanently in the database, and that is in addition to the round or truncate in the channel setup.

"Customer requested that the query selection for the calibration report have a round or truncate option to select, that will only affect the data on the report and not permanently in the database, and that is in addition to the round or truncate in the channel setup."Would they need the cal report round/truncate differentiated from the round/truncate applied in the other reports? Right now, the R/T is only applied at report time, but would be applied equally for all the reports. Do you find this valuable? |

"Would they need the cal report round/truncate differentiated from the round/truncate applied in the other reports? Right now, the R/T is only applied at report time, but would be applied equally for all the reports."Customers response to your question: The round truncate function for cal reports should be differentiated from the other reports. This situation occurs for ozone. The data values are usually truncated. Calibration data for these channels is usually rounded. So, hourly data would be truncated and instrument responses recorded during calibration events would be rounded. I believe applying the round at the cal report time would be the place to apply it. Right now we go in, as you suggested, and change the truncate to round before we produce the cal report. When we are finished we go back and change the round to truncate, so that when we run all other data reports the values are truncated. I believe this is a change that someone could easily forget to go back and make, then data could be reported incorrectly. Do you find this valuable? |

That's a global setting in E-DAS, we'll make that a system config setting.
