Calculation not working properly...?

edited Dec 2, 2019 6:04PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 3 comments

Hi,

I am executing this code below by way of a custom workflow action and for whatever reason the total of the calculation is showing as a string and not a number. i.e. the error I get is: "You have entered an Invalid Field Value 012150.00200.0012350.00150.00 for the following field: custbody_gross_profit". It should in fact be the sum of those values.

Its obviously concatenating the numbers rather than adding them? Am I being slow?

There is a more complex calc to follow but in  the meantime this should just add up the amount field on a transaction... shouldn't it?

Howdy, Stranger!
