Restrict a numeric field to use only number without a dot "."

rangel de oliveira machado

Good Morning!

I have a field of type "Number Field" in jira service management for the requester to inform the phone number. However, the field puts (.) in the middle of the numbers. I need to somehow remove that "." or restrict the field to use only numbers.

Does anyone know how to configure this?

Do you have any Post-Functions, Validators or Properties in the "Create" transition of the workflow?

Number fields render numbers in a human-friendly format, and although you can turn off your regional separator globally for every number field, you're going to have other problems with the numbers in there.

None of my telephone numbers can be stored or shown as a number.  You need a leading 0 in the UK, but the display of a number always drops leading zeroes because they don't matter in a number.   My international numbers start +44(0)91... and +() are not numbers. 

Telephone numbers are not numbers.  You should be storing them in a short text field.

If it helps, if you looked in the database, you'd see that the data being stored is a number.  The separator you are seeing is a display thing, not actually part of your data!
