I have a created a table using timechart with the max #. It generates a row of maximum of sourcetype. How would I round the max # to 0 decimal. Here's my command:

timechart sum(eval(quantity/12)) span=1h by sourcetype | stats max(*) as *

timechart sum(eval(quantity/12)) span=1h by sourcetype | stats avg(*) as *

How about this?

your base search | eval quantity=round(quantity/12) | timechart sum(quantity) span=1h by sourcetype | stats max(*) as * 

Try this:

your base search | timechart sum(eval(quantity/12)) span=1h by sourcetype | stats max(*) as * 
| replace *.* with *#* | convert rmunit(*)

*Updated answer*
Don't know why I didn't think of this before. Try this

For max(*) as *

 your base search | bucket span=1h _time  | stats  sum(eval(quantity/12)) as total by _time, sourcetype | eval total=round(total) | eval temp=1| chart first(total) as total  over temp by sourcetype | fields - temp

For avg(*) as *

your base search | bucket span=1h _time  | stats  sum(eval(quantity/12)) as total by _time, sourcetype | stats avg(total) as total by sourcetype | eval total=round(total) | eval temp=1| chart first(total) as total  over temp by sourcetype | fields - temp

See the updated answer. I also updated the previous one to remove _time from final result.

Can you paste some of the result which it was not able to truncate?

thx. It was able to convert or truncate some values after the decimal. Only 5 values (column 1, 4, 5, 11) had no decimal.

Try the updated answer. Note that its not doing the rounding, its just truncating anything after the decimal point.

no worries, my fault. i might not of explain it clearly. without the round my query produce the results #.###### (6 decimal places)

If you want no decimal places then you don't have to specify the precision (see the syntax in my answer).

if i add to your command: eval quantity=round(quantity/12,1). It gives me one decimal place which is pretty close to what I want. would like 0 decimal places. replace ,1 with 0 then results is all 0s.
