I’m not sure that I understand your formula, but you could take its result and plug it in to this. Way less elegant than I hoped I could put together quickly. Someone else might come along and really embarrass me :slightly_smiling_face:

Your formula or field name = YFF

IF(YFF,ROUNDUP(YFF,0)-IF(YFF-ROUNDDOWN(YFF,0)>0.5,0,0.5),0)

Check the formatting tab in the formula field to make sure it is set to decimal with the correct number of places.
