Error in the evaluation of mathematical expressions

If I create a variable in the Report Builder with the following expression 278 * (1-0 / 100) +28, Report Builder writes a wrong result (8062). If I write the expression in this way 278 * (1- (0/100)) + 28, Report Builder writes the correct result (306).

  • Hi Jeroen,

    We're still researching it and will post a follow up here. For now, I recommend using parentheses ( ) to specify precedence.
