Workflow is resulting in the below error. The Amount column is set to field type INT64 and size 4.
The same value (i.e. positive value of 83749979278296000) does not generate an error. But when it is converted into a negative value -83749979278296000, it run into an error. Hopefully it has a quick solution.
The output should be a numeric value.

Hi @Purpose ,
I did some digging and found an article that explains the issue fairly well. The formula tool will convert the value to "double" perform the calculation and then convert back to "INT64". However this value is too large to convert to "double".
As a workaround I converted the numeric column to a V_Wstring, added a Hyphen "-" to the front of it using a Formula tool and then converted back to INT64. Works!
For more information please see the attached article:
ggruccio,
Thanks a lot. This worked. I have marked the issue as resolved.
Starting version 23.1 Alteryx has added INT64 support in Formulas. Users will now be able to leverage large numbers in their calculations without losing precision.
