Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-10689:
-----------------------------------------
Hi Deepak,
Currently simpleTypeConvert does not support BigDecimal:
{quote}
* Converts the passed object to the named simple type. Supported types
* include: String, Boolean, Double, Float, Long, Integer, Date (java.sql.Date),
* Time, Timestamp, TimeZone;
{quote}
Also parseBigDecimalForEntity offers more than a simple conversion
{quote}
* Return nulls for empty strings, as the entity engine can deal with nulls. This will provide blanks
* in fields where BigDecimal display. Blank meaning null, vs. 0 which means 0
{quote}
> function parseBigDecimalForEntity is in wrong location
