Hi,

Greetings !

I would like to know if there any formula to convert number to text as per below  :

Amount : Example number
Amount in Text : Desired output

AmountAmount in Text
1181.37000001181.37
813.56000000813.56
121.7000000121.70
29.7000000029.70
25001.93000025001.93


Currently in excel, i used this formula :
=TEXT([Amount],"000000000.00")

But i was not sure in Alteryx.
The output should be contained of 12 characters including 2 decimal places, doesn't matter the amount.

Thank you in advance !

Hi @fikrizahari 

 

One way of doing this.

@fikrizahari One way of doing this with the PadLeft() function

PadLeft(toString([Amount],2), 12, '0')
