Fixed Decimal Number converted to Text issue

[kekepania0529]

I converted a fixed decimal number column to text. Once converted, if the digits after the decimal were zeros, or the last digit was zero, they are being dropped from the text. How can keep the zeros after the decimal?

Try the following formula:

New Column = FIXED (TableName[1_GL_Account],2)

FIXED function converts the number to text and keeps 2 decimal places

That worked for the decimals, but added commas to the string. Can the commas be removed also? It needs to be formatted like this: 3219001011.05

Try adding SUBSTITUTE function as well

so New Column = SUBSTITUTE( FIXED (TableName[1_GL_Account],2), ",", "")

HI @kekepania0529 ,

Can you share your sample data here so that I can try it at my end?

Thanks,
