Slightly different since the request is to always round down.

data have;
input value1 value2 value3;
newval1=100* floor(value1/100);
newval2=100* floor(value2/100);
newval3=100* floor(value3/100);;
cards;
111 1499 15251
;

unfortunately the FLOOR and CEIL functions do not have the round off precision value parameter that ROUND does.

if we use round as below we get 

 

100 1500 15300

 

data have;
input value1 value2 value3;
newval1=round(value1,100);
newval2=round(value2,100);
newval3=round(value3,100);
cards;
111 1499 15251
;
Thanks,

No.  Here are two algorithms. You could use PROC FCMP to make your own function, but it is probably NOT worth the effort.

data test;
  input have @@;
  test1=round(have,100);
  test2=100*int(have/100);
  test3=have-mod(have,100);
cards;
111 1499 15251
;
Obs     have    test1    test2    test3

 1       111      100      100      100
 2      1499     1500     1400     1400
 3     15251    15300    15200    15200
