Not max characters but what is the highest number allowed in a field

Jmoreno

Hello,

I know the text fields have a max of 1024 characters in a field but what about for a number and a fixed decimal? I have a value of ###,###,###,###,### that is just displaying blank in a fixed decimal field. Any input would be helpful.

Domo has maximum number of characters for text fields as 1024, but numerical fields also have limits.

For number and fixed decimal, Domo stores numbers as 64-bit floating point values (ie. Double in most databases). This give high range values, but also precision limits. If your number is large, you may have an issue with the precision or display. The field may be rounding or truncating the number if its too big.

Check the formatting and adjust precision to see it if it resolves the issue.

Also, make sure you aren't using fields that have NULL or empty values. Use coalesce() when appropriate to make null values calculate as 0 if needed.
