Troubleshooting: Copy and paste from Excel – Invalid number format at column SubTotal, row 1
Question: When I copy from Excel and paste it on stock adjustment, message prompted “Invalid number format at column SubTotal, row 1” and I noticed that the sub total amount is not the same as the amount in Excel. Why?
Version: 1.8/ 1.9/ 2.0
Possible Reason:
The system can’t recognize symbol “( )” as negative value.
Solution:
Change all the Number cells (Qty, UnitCost, SubTotal) negative value format to “-1234.10”.
1) Highlight the whole cell, right click, and select Format Cells.
2) Click on Number, and choose the negative number format -1234.10, then click on OK.
3) Now, copy from the Excel and paste onto stock adjustment again, it is now successfully pasted, and the sub total figure is correct.
