How to add a tab tag inside report text tool

SDJ57

Is there a way to insert a 'tab' tag inside the Report Text tool to enable column decimal alignment similar to within word? In this snippet I have 2 columns, one text and one a dynamic decimal amount. I would like the amounts to be right aligned at the decimal. Please see screenshot below.

For this case it would be better to use the report table, not the report text i think.

 

But if you really need to use the report text and the problem is that with decimals you dont have the same aligment option than with text, it would be a worth try to transform the decimals into strings before the text report tool.

Thanks @Felipe_Ribeir0

I'll try building the string using the formula tool and use the Report Table.
