Number formatting in pipelines.

This is Straight cut and paste from chatGPT , maybe useful to you , since I have never across this number format (I am from India)

Yes, in Quickbase with Jinja templating, you can manipulate the format of numbers to suit your needs.

Given the number format you've mentioned (123.456,78), it seems you're using a European-style number format where the period is used as the thousands separator and the comma is used as the decimal separator.

If you want to convert this format (123.456,78) to a more standard format (123456.78), you can use Jinja's string manipulation capabilities.

Here's a step-by-step breakdown:

1. Replace the period (.) with nothing, effectively removing it.
2. Replace the comma (,) with a period (.).

Here's how you can achieve this using Jinja:

{% set number_str = '123.456,78' %}
{% set standard_format = number_str.replace('.', '').replace(',', '.') %}
{{ standard_format }}

This will give you `123456.78`.

Now, if you have this number in a field in Quickbase, you'll have to reference that field in your Jinja template, and then apply the above transformations.

Remember, this approach assumes that your number is always formatted with a period as the thousands separator and a comma as the decimal separator
