“Unable to convert column X to a number” while importing in 2024.0

Notes:

• This issue is exclusive to version 2024.0 of the program. Updating to version 2024.1 or higher will resolve the issue
• If you are not on 2024.0 or have already applied the fix, the acquisition value must only contain a number with a decimal point. Don’t include commas or dollar signs

On a Custom Import for new assets or disposing existing assets in 2024.0, dollar values with 1 - 12 before the decimal and .01 - .31 after the decimal will error on Validation. If the issue continues after applying the new .dll, ensure there are no dollar signs or commas in the column in excel.
