Power Query Rounding to a whole number

Hi I am struggling to find a solution to an issue where my raw Data in a column has decimal places e.g:

 

Partqty
Bar 10.3
Bar 20.5
Bar 31.2
Bar 40.2

When Power Query is closed and loaded this Column returns whole numbers :

Partqty
Bar 10
Bar 21
Bar 31
Bar 40

I have tried to transform > round > then change decimal places to 2 this hasnt worked also when rounded up or down this has no effect.

The column type is set to Int.64

Does anyone have any ideas as this is causing discrepences on stock levels in the report.

Many Thanks

The Int data type is integer, so you need to change it to fixed decimal instead.
