Output:

 

NumberDecimal
2100 (If 2 then 2 zeros to be appended)

31000

Hey @PoliteGolite301991,

toString(Decimals)+Right("000000000000000000", [Number])

 

This formula should work.

Hi @PoliteGolite301991  a more scalable solution would be to use 

PadRight(tostring([decimals]),length([decimals])+[number], “0”)
