Note   When using datatype WFDT_DECIMAL, you should use caution with functions that test equality (WFPM_EQ and WFPM_NEQ) and include the mathematic operators WFPM_ADD, WFPM_SUBTRACTION, WFPM_MULTIPLICATION or WFPM_DIVISION. Rounding of the WFDT_DECIMAL value can cause unexpected results from these operations.
