Solution

  • it looks like there IS a standard module:

    DATA: result TYPE dec11_4.

CALL FUNCTION 'FIMA_NUMERICAL_VALUE_ROUND'    
  EXPORTING
    i_rtype     = space
    i_runit     = '0.05'
    i_value     = '4.48'
  IMPORTING
    e_value_rnd = result.

    i_rtype controls whether it is rounded up (+), down (-) or commercial (space).
