  • Hi @CCOLMANT,

    One way you could do this would be to divide whatever number you're referring to by 5, round the result to the nearest number, then multiply by 5.

    Effectively: ROUND(Value/5,0) * 5

  • Consider using the Anaplan function MROUND, you may find more info in Anapedia

    The function is similar to Excel's, except with an added flexibility to add a rounding direction too

  • @derektslim Good point! I actually discovered that formula soon after responding to the original post. :)
