So I've been working on setting a value to round to the nearest 5 or to the nearest 10 of another value and thought I'd share what I ended up with.

Here's how I did it in a trigger:

Code: Select all

$roundContact = ceil((@#textVar003) / 5) * 5;
@@textVar004=$roundContact;

Here's how I did in in Javascript:

Code: Select all

function roundUp() {
$("#textVar003").setValue(Math.ceil(Number($("#country").getValue()) /5)*5);
}
$("#country").setOnchange(roundUp); // on change
roundUp($('#country').getValue(), ''); // on Load

You can also add numbers before rounding but for me it was tricky so I'll add examples of those too:

Trigger:

Code: Select all

$roundContact = ceil((@#textVar003 + 3) / 5) * 5;
@@textVar004=$roundContact;

Javascript:

Code: Select all

function roundUp() {
$("#textVar003").setValue(Math.ceil((Number($("#country").getValue()) + 2.5)/5)*5);
}
$("#country").setOnchange(roundUp); // on change
roundUp($('#country').getValue(), ''); // on Load

If anyone has a cleaner way of doing this, please feel free to share. I'm a super newbie so I make no guarantees.

If you need it to round to the nearest 10, just change the 5s with 10s.

Hopefully this helps someone in the future trying to do the same.
