Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hello there!

I am having issues while importing units and durations on P6, using XLSX files. 

When I import floating point values, it ignores the decimal point and import as an integer. For example, importing 12.05 and it writes 1,205 in the database. 

Does anybody have any idea on why does it happen and how to fix it?

I tried the oracle support here in Brazil but the company analysts only search the knowledge base and send default answers and workarounds that generally don't work. 

I am using P6 PRofessional R16.2 Release 16.2.7 (Build #: 23684).

Thank you!!!
