The decimals attribute value must not cause non-zero digits to be interpreted as zero.

If the decimals attribute of a numeric fact is not equal to 'INF', then the value is interpreted as if certain digits were zero. Interactive Data documents must not contain usage that results in such truncations. The examples below illustrate correct and incorrect use:

Fact text Decimals value Interpreted value Result
-2345.67 INF -2,345.67
-2345.67 2 -2,345.67
-2345.67 0 -2,345.00 Error
-2345.67 -2 -2,300.00 Error
-2345.67 -3 -2000.00 Error
-2345.67 -6 0000.00 Error

For further information and guidance using the decimals attribute, see 6.6.32 below.
