Configuration of numeric data type

Under Settings > Integration & Design > External Appearance you will find, right at the bottom of the page, (/Administration/Design/Basics) an area called Configuration of numeric data type
Here, you can specify a 1000 separator and a decimal marker for each language. You are free to choose both of these values. The result of the settings made here is that, then, the numeric values are formatted for each specific language in certain number fields, e.g. in the Salary & Bonus area.

Example:
With no formatting: 1200000.00
With formatting: 1,200,000.00 or 1'200'000.00

If you prefer to display rounded values at certain points in the system, you should use the Configuration mode and modify the number of decimal places for each display field. These fields automatically have 2 decimal places by default. The setting is not possible for every field. Only particular number fields which only permit decimal places in the input have this function.

Tip for importing:
Importing number fields and/or values with decimal delimiters -> the error message:
We accept only numbers without a thousand delimiter and a point as decimal delimiter in the import

can be solved using variables that define arbitrary delimiters, to be provided per dataset:

<Field FieldName="Number.DecimalDelimiter"><String>,</String></Field>
