I got some issue about format number, I want to remove 000.00 to 000 and for example 150000 become 150,000
Acumatica report designer supports Microsoft .Net format syntax.
To use it, select a field in the report designer and assign it a Microsoft .Net format string:
To remove decimal you can use this format string:
='#.'
To remove decimal and use a comma as a thousand separator:
='###,###,###,###,###,###.'
More information about the Microsoft .Net formatting syntax for numeric types is available here:

If I opened a csv file, Excel used to automatically format it into columns. At some point in the past Excel just stopped doing this.
I'm using Office 365 Business, Excel version 1803. Windows 10 ver 1709
I want to be able to double click on a csv file and have it open automatically formatted into columns.
This is not machine specific as my coworker has an identical issue on a different brand of computer.
So far I have tried the following:
Changing the list separator: I cannot find the list separator setting in office 365, I think it may have been buried or removed.
The "decimal separator" is a comma.
Creating a simple csv to test with. I tested with this csv and it still has the same problem:
Date,Count
2018-01-02,22
2018-01-03,24
I do know I can use text to columns and write macros to accomplish this. I want to avoid those if possible so I can just open a csv and it's formatted.
Thanks, any insights here would be great. I am really hoping it is some system or excel setting.
I came across this and I hope that 1 year and 10 months later it will still help somebody.
Had the same problem and solved it by "Change date, time or number formats" in the Control Panel.
Standard the Format is "Match Windows display language"
My Windows is in English (list separator = ",") but I live in Belgium where the list separator is ";"
So in formats, I changed the Format to "Dutch (Belgium)". That solved it for me.
Once you change your country, double-check in "Additional Settings" if the separator is what you want. Keep in mind that also other things might change, such as decimal symbol and digit grouping symbol.
If you don't want that, you might only want to change the separator and don't change the country.
Best regards,

I use Microsoft Excel 2010 and my Excel shows thousand separators in a really weird manner. It has been doing so ever since I installed it, so this is not due to something that I changed later. You can see in the pic below how my Excel separates thousands in a big number:
This is through the default Comma Style format. I have even tried to make it custom by setting it to #,### and #,##0.00 but it still shows the same weird separation. Any idea how this can be fixed?
By default, MS Excel uses computer regional settings when displaying number or date formats.
Go to Control Panel, Regional Settings/Region and Language(it depends by operating system) and select a different country if necessary, but especially check Number Format (Additional Settings). See Digit grouping symbol and Digit grouping.
Change Digit grouping to 123,456,789:
Found the solution.
The issue was in the Regional settings. My Digit Grouping in the Numbers tab and Currency tab were different. Once I set them both to the same format, Excel stopped showing me the random grouping it was showing earlier.
Thanks everyone for pointing me in the right direction.
When I import document from google keyword tool some curency values are converted to date for example 5.21 is converted to May 21. However there are some in the same column that are not conveted. What should I do that my document would not be disorted ? Tried to remove text proofing when typing, however I have document prewriten by google so it dosen't help.
Your regional settings seem to have the dot in the date format, with an order of MDY, so Excel will interpret a number like 5.21 as a date, but a number like 5.66 will remain a number.
Try exporting the Google output to a text file. Then open the text file with Excel via the File > Open menu. This will bring up the text import wizard. In Step 3 of the wizard you can select each column of data and specify what data type it contains, i.e. to tell Excel what each column contains.
You regional settings may also be set to have a comma as the decimal separator. In this case, Excel will not recognize 5.21 as a number at all. You can
change the Google output to produce numbers like 5,21 or
temporarily change your regional settings to use the format Google serves you
mark the column as text and import it as text, then use find and replace on that column to replace the decimal character with the one your system uses.
I have SSRS 2008 R2 and am working on reports for the UK.
My report has a Date/Time data type parameter. When user opens the report the default date format is MM/DD/YYYY, but I would like to have DD/MM/YYYY format (same if user pick date from Calender drop-down date selection).
I have changed the Language settings on the reports to UK and it formats the dates within the dataset, not the parameter. I have also tried using a cdate expression but that does not work either.
One work around is just changing it to nvarchar in my SQL code however, I have a few scripts that use a > #eomdate so the nvarchar will not work in that case.
Any ideas?
Please see this post on the MSDN forums. The calendar drop down and the date format of the parameter's text box are dependent on the user's Language settings in their browser, not on the report.
If you want to force users to have the same displayed dates, you'll have to use a text field formatted as you want and then use CDate() in your code to turn that varchar into a date for performing time comparisons.
This is what I did to resolve the issue in the SQL Code to get it to work in SSRS as a hack.
declare #eomdate varchar(50)
set #eomdate = '31/01/2013'
select * from policiesEOM p
where p.eomdate >= convert(datetime, #eomdate, 105)
Then I changed the datatype to Text and it works perfectly.
The ssrs date type use the browser language in Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera and Safari. In Edge too. IE use the windows regional date format.
If you don't want to use date drop box, you can use a text parameter and convert the value to date with ssrs built in convertion function.
I'm using SSRS 2008 and I have a financial report. I would like the dollar amounts in my table to be in currency or number format when exported to Excel. Currently they end up being text.
I have trying a few things to see if its even possible. I removed the table header, didn't use the $ sign, and converted the field to decimal, but nothing seemed to work. The data in Excel always seems to be format as text.
Any suggestions?
Make sure you are using the Format string "C" but the export to excel is really a text rendering - it does not hold Excel specific attributes/qualities.
I found that instead of using a format function in the expression like:
=Format(myvar.value, "C")
Its better to not to use an expression and just change the Text Box Properties on that field. For example, I'd leave the field as:
=myvar.value
Then I would right click on the field, go to Text Box Properties, Number Sub Category/Tab, and select currency.
When doing this the results in Excel are a custom number format vs a text format.
