Hello,  
I am trying to convert decimal numbers to whole numbers in a respective column in a Report.  
Right now the column is showing whole numbers but in the xml format it is showing in decimal format.

I tried changing the number format in the properties section but it did not work.

Can you please help me out with this issue!?
