About This Feature

Overview

The Multidimensional Number Field in WPS is used to enter, store, and display numeric information. It fits scenarios such as prices, quantities, percentages, and amounts that may later be used in calculations or summaries.

Core tasks include:

Create a number field for a new numeric column.
Set number formatting, including integers or 1 to 9 decimal places.
Set a default value for newly added records.
Turn on the thousands separator for easier reading.

These settings mainly affect how values are displayed and entered. When a field is shown as a percentage, it is still important to interpret the displayed result together with the underlying numeric value.

Capability Summary	The multidimensional number field supports creating a numeric column, setting integer or 1 to 9 decimal-place display, setting a default value, and enabling a thousands separator.	Microsoft Lists Number columns support decimal place settings, number or percentage display, and value range settings.	Google Sheets supports number, percentage, currency, and custom number formats, including decimal and thousands separator display.	Notion database Number properties accept numbers and can be formatted as currency or progress bars for tracking counts, prices, or completion.	Adobe Acrobat form fields support number-related formatting to control how numeric input is displayed in forms.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS brings field creation, display format, default value, and thousands separator settings together in one field settings flow, which is practical for table-structure management.	Compared with WPS: the official description focuses on column properties and rendering rules inside Lists rather than a multidimensional table field workflow.	Compared with WPS: the official guidance is centered on spreadsheet cell formatting for ranges, not database-style field property management.	Compared with WPS: the Number property is available, but the official page presents a broader database property model with fewer number-display controls described on the same page.	Compared with WPS: the official page is focused on PDF form field formatting rather than structured table field management.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Multidimensional Number Field is more directly aligned with structured table field management. If your work focuses on managing record fields, display consistency, and default numeric behavior in one place, this setup is more direct than spreadsheet-only formatting or PDF form formatting.
