Percentage column

DanielPasalic — Mon, 20 Jan 2020 07:10:55 GMT

Hi
I need to create a percentage (%) column but all values should be divided with 100 before I can change Data Type (from a decimal number to percentage)

Anyone who can help me?

Not so easy Anonymous
As I already mentioned, if I do what you recommend I get totally wrong percentage.
I have value 98,640 and if I just change to the percentage I get 9 8640,00% instead of 98,64%.
Somehow I need to divide with 100 all raws in this column and after that, I can change to percentage. But I don't know-how.

Try this

New column= divide(old_column,100,0)
