SharePoint List: How to Convert Percent from Integer without making a 100 a %10000
I manually pasted rows from excel into a new SharePoint list. I need to convert percentages but like a 100 comes out looking like a 10,000%. How do I fix this?
Hi FlowTime1990,
To convert percentages from integers as 10,000% in a SharePoint list, you can try these steps:
1. Open your SharePoint list
2. Locate the column that contains the percentage values that need to be converted.
3. Open the column settings.
4. Find the section called "Column Formatting" or "Format this column" in the settings.
5. Choose the appropriate formatting option for displaying percentages. You might find options like "Number" or "Percentage."
6. In the format customization, specify the desired format for displaying percentages. To prevent the issue of 100 appearing as 10,000%, you'll need to adjust the format to divide the value by 100.
For example, if you want the percentages to be shown as regular numbers (e.g., 100% should appear as 100), you can use the format:
`0.00%` or `0.##%`.
This format should divide the value by 100 and display it correctly.
