Description
Description
The variation between how the numeric value differs the decimal place between a comma and a dot depends on the Language Pack selected at the Default Language configuration at the System Administration page of Jira. However, there is an issue when using number that end with a whole number at the decimal units, Jira eats the 0 (zero).
Example in English language
User input: 7.90
After saving: 7.9
User input: 7.92
After saving: 7.92
Example in Portuguese language
User input: 104846,40
After saving: 104.846,4
User input: 104846,43
After saving: 104.846,43
As per this article on Significant Zeroes:
Zeroes placed after other digits but behind a decimal point are significant; 7.90 has three significant digits.
From my perspective, Jira shouldn't be "eating" the decimal 0 (zero) on whole numbers and that cause issues to customers from other countries that use Languages where it is important to have the whole decimal number displayed.
