Allow Quantity to be expressed in formulas or decimals

[albertocottica]

Column D in the "Budget" sheet is dedicated to entering the quantity in which people's time is measured. Currently, it displays the error message "There was a problem. Quantity must be in number", if:

• I enter a formula. For example: "Alice worked 20% of her time for 3 months, so I am going to input =3*.2"
• I enter a decimal. For example: "Bob is going to be working three quarters of a day, so let's input 0.75".

These are legitimate use cases for this column, so I claim the restriction on formulas (especially) and decimals is a bug.

My sandbox is here.

This has been fixed during development at some time in the past.

I just tested it again, and it works: file "Budget Template v3", sheet "Cost", column "Qty".
