Entering some amount on a sales , purchase invoice, receipt or payment if by accident you do not double click in the unit price box and start typing an amount after the default zero ([Remove the default 0](https://forum.manager.io/t/remove-or-autoselect-the-default-0/18114)) then the amount is not showing correct ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/manager1/original/3X/5/3/53c594ddc1138f59bf2b39a73782c62aadaf85f6.jpeg) ---

Why dot and not comma? In Greece we use the comma for decimal character. ---

Hi @ntrim It used to work with either ( dot or comma ) . But this is also for the countries that do not use comma for decimal separator ---

Yes, I saw your screen shot. But you did not explain why you posted it. ---

Sorry I thought it was obvious When entering an amount with a dot as decimal separator ( 163.9 ) the amount shows 1.639 Also if you enter an amount with a comma as decimal sep but no digit(s) after the comma, then the box turns red and when hitting create no amount is registered ---

So are you continuing the discussion about default zeros or raising a new issue about comma versus dot separators? ---

Just saying the system shouldn’t react this way in both cases (bug ?) ---

The issue here is that Greece is using `.` (dot) as thousand separator. In this case, the system just assumes `.` is not significant and filters it out. If you switch number format to something else where thousand separator is something else (e.g. space), then system will accept both `,` (comma) and `.` (dot) as decimal separators. This is not a bug. In the end, your number format says `comma` is your decimal separator. Not `dot`. Manager will still treat `dot` as decimal separator but only if your number format doesn’t use `dot` as thousand separator. ---

@lubos Thanks for your detailed explanation. You might want to see the case where you enter an amount with a comma as decimal sep but no digit(s) after the comma, then the box turns red and when hitting create no amount is registered ---

Hi @lubos, I just installed manger latest version to 18.10.20. When i click New payment,New Invoices…I still see Default Zero in Unit Price. Also if i remove it under Form Defaults for any entry,its still shown if i click New payments Example: Set New payment with Expense account in Form Defaults and remove zero in Price. .Click now on New payment. You will see Zero in unit price still. Can we remove this Default Zero. Thanks ---
