Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

A template will only pass a check templates test if it useses a dot (.) as an indicator of decimal places. It won't pass if it has a coma (,) anywhere in the goal.

My expectation is that if I set the number formatting as 1.000,33 a goal set as 150,50 would pass the check test.

How can we reproduce the issue?

  1. Configure number formatting to be 1.000,33
  2. Add a template: #template 150,50
  3. Run "Check templates"

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Chrome

Operating System

Windows 11

The docs say that you must use decimal dot. Once there is a GUI it will support other formats
