How to:

FLOOR returns the largest integer value that is less than or equal to a number.

Syntax: How to Return the Largest Integer Less Than or Equal to a Number 

FLOOR(number)

where:

number

Numeric

Is the number whose floor will be returned. The output data type is the same as the input data type.

Example: Returning the Floor of a Number

In the following request, FLOOR returns the largest integer less than or equal to the GROSS_PROFIT_US value. 

DEFINE FILE WFLITE
FLOOR1/D7.2= FLOOR(GROSS_PROFIT_US);
END
TABLE FILE WFLITE
PRINT GROSS_PROFIT_US/D9.2  FLOOR1
ON TABLE SET PAGE NOPAGE
END

Partial output follows. Note that even though the value returned is an integer, it is returned with the same format as the FLOOR1 field (D7.2):
