Strange Hyperion Planning data form bug...

GeoCMay 17 2013 — edited May 17 2013

Hi all,

I'm having a very strange problem on a data form in Hyperion planning. When trying to input a number against a percentage type member, after pressing enter it sometimes displays as the number I put in - 0.00000000000000001 !!

So, for example, I input 0.47%, hit enter, and it changes to 0.469999999999999999 in the form. Even after I save the form, it continues to display this way. This only seems to happen for specific numbers - i.e. if I input 0.46%, press enter, it displays correctly as 0.46%. But I have this problem with 0.47% and other specific numbers, across all data forms, regardless of the member intersection where they're entered.

A retrieve in smartview shows it correctly as 0.0047, so I suspect it is not a problem with how the data in being input, but rather how it is being displayed by Planning.

Has anyone ever come across this or anything similar before? Any solutions that come to mind?

I'm using EPM 11.1.2.2. Have tested with Mozilla and IE - problem occurs with both.

Thanks.
