Parameter: COUNTER_ROUNDING_MODE

Definition

The method for rounding counter values

Description

This parameter specifies the method for rounding the values of the counters stored in the provider contracts and in the subscriptions for the end customers. It is used if the precision defined by the COUNTER_PRECISION parameter was modified.

Syntax

The possible values are:

NEAREST: Rounds towards the nearest neighbor. If the discarded fraction is >= .5, then raise, otherwise truncate.
TRUNCATE : Truncates the amount. The fraction is discarded.
RAISE : Increments the digit prior to a non zero discarded fraction.

Caution

Set up the same value to this parameter for each rater instance of the system to avoid inconsistency in computed data.
