Issue

  • What is the Maximum number of decimal places?

 

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.4

 

Resolution

  • Stores a decimal number value with a limit of 16 digits, whether before or after the decimal.
    For example:999.9999999999999(16 digits total)
  • Note: Due to its limited number of digits, this field type sometimes rounds large numbers and does not provide high precision. Use the Precision Decimal type to enter values with more decimal places and to avoid rounding.
