I am aware of three major number formats (1000.00 for each): 1,000.00 1'000,00 1.000,00 Typically we sometimes see issues because numbers taken from the db are not properly handled and so the comma causes issues when used as a decimal separator. In this case, the number is multiplied by 100. We have mechanisms in place to correct such problems but in this case, we missed an instance.
