30% displayed as 3000%

[Manish_Jain11]

I have a Percent type column, Where I have given the initial value 30, But what it instead takes is 3000% instead of 30% in the Form. Why so ?

Please try 0.3 as the initial value.

Please take a look at the following article and the below extract from it.

Think of the Percent column as a Decimal value with AUTOMATIC conversion to a Percent for Display. This means all of the values in data and expressions are acted on in its Decimal form.

I hope this helps make sense of it!
