    Hey shiva1020243,

    Can you provide more info to clarify?

    When you say "source", are you using the datasource functionality? If "yes", how are you using it?
    Or, is the numerics a value in a response?

    Cheers,

    Rich

    Hello shiva1020243 

     

    Here is some groovy script code that can do what you request.  Given your ambiguous requirement, I made best guess at a response...   🙂  

    There are two sections of the code that are identical just to show different originating source values and their outcome.

     

    Regards,

    Todd

     

    import java.text.DecimalFormat;

df = new DecimalFormat("#0.000");


interestRateStr = "00550";
interestRateInt = interestRateStr.toInteger();
interestRateFloat = interestRateInt / 1000;
log.info "interestRateFloat=$interestRateFloat";
finalValue = df.format(interestRateFloat);
log.info "finalValue=$finalValue";

interestRateStr = "02000";
interestRateInt = interestRateStr.toInteger();
interestRateFloat = interestRateInt / 1000;
log.info "interestRateFloat=$interestRateFloat";
finalValue = df.format(interestRateFloat);
log.info "finalValue=$finalValue";
