Hello, I want to be able to round up a number to the nearest whole - for example 4.1 would round to 5, 4 would stay as 4
5.6 would round to 6. any whole numbers would not round but stay the same.
I think that adding .49 (you may need to expand that however many decimals you might work with) to the number within the round formula will always round up.
I have heard of .5 but that would make an integer round up to the next one which won't do.
Round( x + .49)
So
4.5 rounds to 5
5 rounds to 5
5.01 rounds to 6
5.49 rounds to 6
Is that what you are looking for?

Depending on the significant figures, 0.49 may not work (for example, 0.001 wil give incorrect answer)
This works for all significant digits.
=IF(Owner@row > INT(Owner@row), +1, 0) + INT(Owner@row)
If the numbers are negative and need to increase in magnitude (instead of rounding 'up'), that is a different problem, which I doubt applies here.

excellent thanks so much for your reply, this is great!
Anyway we can make this view only for security purposes? We would like to prevent users from sending responses to other users by accident.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
