Upcoming Change for Numerical Field Value Comparisons

As of 2019.2, we have fixed an issue that occurs for workflows with conditions on actions containing client triggers that compare two numerical fields, such as decimal, integer, and currency fields. Currently, when a condition executes on client triggers to compare two numerical fields, the field values are treated as strings by the system. Instead of comparing fields’ numerical values, the system reads fields alphanumerically, character by character. As a result, the system may be returning incorrect results.

See the following table for an example of how the system used to treat strings:
