I’ll show you a work around to get number formats in pivot tables to default to whatever number of decimal places you want using the ROUND formula.FREE Shortcuts Cheat Sheet »» http://www.up4excel.co.uk/shortcuts

If you've ever had to mess around with the number format on a pivot table to get rid of random numbers of decimal places then you'll know what a pain that can be. You probably wished there's some kind of default setting that would just do all this for you. Unfortunately there isn't….but there is a workaround, and that is what I'm going to show you how to do in this video today.

ROUND Function
Syntax: =ROUND(number, num_digits)

Examples
=ROUND(12.15, 1) = 12.2
=ROUND(12.15, 0) = 12
=ROUND(12.15, -1) = 10
