you to make it easier to paste numbers.
Hi there,
I do a lot of copy/pasting and every time i do it, i have to clean up the number to remove any commas and dollar signs etc, from my other software. This is very inconvenient.
This is what happens:
When i paste $2,334.00, ZOHO books does not recognize it as a legitimate number.
Are you able to add this feature? I used QBO a few times and there you can paste anything and it will recognize it.
Thanks

This filtering/cleaning of special characters is a thing that happens in many other browser interfaces, banking, Xero, web forms.
It's a thing and it's widely available elsewhere. Come on Zoho, please, this should be easy.As it is now you have to manually delete the special characters which costs time, frustration and introduces the chance that you'll accidentally delete part of the number by mistake without noticing.
Just to be clear, currency symbols, commas, trailing zeros/line breaks that may be copied and pasted.

100% - ironically, as soon as you save the item it displays with the comma anyways.

YES!! This is such a small thing that is really inconvenient! I used Xero before and it could also deal with the comma issue.
