    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Cloud. Using JIRA Server? See the corresponding suggestion.

      We have a custom field that is of number type. Two problems:

      1. When the field is printed out it gets printed with commas. So 1234 would become 1,234. Is there a way to disable this?

      2. Entering data in the field does not permit commas. This is a strange inconsistency - I can't copy-paste a number from one form to another.

      Jira needs to pick which way it wants to go on printing/accepting commas in its custom number fields. I'd recommend getting rid of it entirely, as it's very distracting when we use it for build numbers or changelist numbers.
