And round(numeric,int) does work ok.
The error message is telling you
there is double precision argument where a numeric
is expected.
And with 7.4.5 it says in addition
HINT: No function matches the given name and argument types.
You may need to add explicit type casts.
Try
round((parameter*oe_count_matches(smiles,smarts))::numeric,2)
Works for me with double precision arguments.
