1. Go to the Offer Approval page;

Offer Detail Standalone Number Fields (customLong1-10) are designed to receive only integer numbers. This information is addressed on the Implementation Guide under Job Offer Detail Field Definition: Attributes.

As a suggest alternative to have decimal values on the Offer Approval, you can either:

• Reference a field from the Job Application or the Job Requisition, which already has this decimal value;
• Replace the number type for a text type.

NOTE: In case you are not receiving the error message but instead, the value is being truncated, that's because the field definition on your Offer Detail is being set as "custom="true"" and this behavior is explained on the KBA - 2524471 - Decimal points in offer approval standalone fields not getting saved
