Losing Decimal Precision
I’m losing the decimal digits out of a variable for Duration (Hours) when creating a Timebill record. Here is the code snippett:
for ( var i = 0; searchstudents != null && i < searchstudents.length; i++ )
{
var searchstudent = searchstudents[ i ];
if (editts != "T") // Must be Create
{
var hours = searchimport.getValue('custrecord7'); //Get hours
// alert('Custom Hours' + " " + hours);
var classdate = searchimport.getValue('custrecord6'); //Get Date
var instrid = searchinstr.getId( ); //Get instr id
var classid = searchclass.getId( ); //Get class id
recordCreated = nlapiCreateRecord('timebill');
recordCreated.setFieldValue('employee', instrid);
recordCreated.setFieldValue('hours', hours);
The alert will show the variable "hours" has 3.3 hours however when Timebill is created, Duration show 3.0. Custrecord7 is a Decimal field in the custom record. Any ideas?
