I have a list of SKUs that come from our oracle business intelligence program as text OR scientific form (example, 1.01E07). I need the scientific form to come through as text (1010000000) so the workflow will calculate properly. I tried text to column splitting up the data by the "E" but that splits up any SKU with the "E" character in it. I need those to remain the same.
How can I accomplish this?

Hi,
First of all - thanks for posting!
I used a formula/filter to split the data wherever scientific notation was used and then treated each part of the split separately (using the POW() function in a formula to fully express the scientific notation).
I recombined these with a Union tool and you now have a full representation for your Item field which you can continue to use to build out your workflow logic.
Cheers,
Nick
I just looked at your file. Same suggestion as NickJ. Filter on field 3 for "contains E+" (or something like that), then process those records to convert out of sci notation, and union with the False out of filter.
Thanks Nick! Much appreciated.
Thank you for taking a look GC.
