Decimal numbers in a custom field
February 18, 2014, 02:33:39 am
Hey,

I have the following settings under administer --> Localisation --> Language, currency
Thousand seperator: _ (space)
Decimal point:  ,  (comma)

I have a custom field of the type number where I want to enter the decimal number. But it doesn't take the settings I have provided. I am required to fill in a number like 1234.56 and it displays the number as 1234.56 But I want to enter the number as 1 234,56 and I want to display it as 1 234,56... I am not sure how to achieve this.

Is this a bug in CiviCRM? If not where do I specify the format for numbers?

Thanks a lot,
Jaap

Yes, I have a vague recollection of running into this issue too. And I think the function did simply not look at the config settings, but I am not sure....
