[askspepsi]

hi everyone,

I have an data output in my sql table in number format, when trying to calcuate the differentiate output comes in number format but output required is below.

11.35 to 11:21 and should rounddown to 11:00

11.65 to 11:39 and should rounddown to 11:30

12:00 to 12:00 and should not rounddown to 12:00

Hello @askspepsi ,

If I got your logic correctly, try the following forms in new columns:

Half hour = 
ROUND('Table'[Value] / 24 * 48,0) / 48 

Desired Output = 
IF(
    MINUTE('Table'[Value] / 24) <= 30 , 
    ROUND('Table'[Value] , 0 ) / 24 , 
    ROUND('Table'[Value] / 24 * 48 , 0 ) / 48
)
