The cause of the problem is that you test the values if they are > 0, which won't work for nulls.

= if [Satisfaction Score] = null then null else "String" = if [Satisfaction Score] <> null then "String" else null = if [Satisfaction Score] is number then "String" else null

Show me the settings for the custom column again now that you've changed them.

Is there a Change Data Type step after you add this column? When I create a column with the same settings it works fine.

No, There are no further steps. And if I change the type manually, the errors persist. I've created conditional columns before, but have never had this issue.
