CE_CALC issue when division results in 0

Question

I have a calc view that has 2 sql statements getting counts and then I need to divide one by the other and * 100 to get the percentage.  When I use CE_CALC and the result of the division is < 0 (even if I then multiply by 100) my result is always 0.  If the result of the division is positive, it works fine.  I have also replaced the variables with actual integer values and the result is the same.
This always results in 0 as long as TOTALSHIPPEDBYFCD is < TOTALFCDTODAY:
var5 = CE_PROJECTION(:var4, ["TOTALFCDTODAY", "TOTALSHIPPEDBYFCD",
CE_CALC('(("TOTALSHIPPEDBYFCD" / "TOTALFCDTODAY") * 100)',
decimal(10,2)) AS "PERCENTSHIPPEDBYFCD"]);
This works but I would rather use the CE functions:
var5 = SELECT TOTALFCDTODAY, TOTALSHIPPEDBYFCD,
cast((TOTALSHIPPEDBYFCD)/(TOTALFCDTODAY)*100 as decimal(10,2)) as PERCENTSHIPPEDBYFCD
                FROM :var4
Do you think this is a bug?
Thanks,
Amy

Answer 1

What if you do the multiplication before?
"TOTALSHIPPEDBYFCD" * 100 / "TOTALFCDTODAY"
Other thing you might try is multiplying by 100.00 instead of just 100.
