      Description

      A field of type "number" must allow

      • to be left empty on purpose
      • to be explicitly set to the number 0 (zero)

      Currently, if you add a record that contains number fields, all these fields will implicitly be filled with 0 if they are left empty. Thus, there is no way to distinguish a number being truly 0.00 or empty (non-existent).
