Phone number in Deals section is wrong format

[teamhandy]

When I put a phone number in the deals properties it wants to write it as a currancy with commas. If you put dashes in the number, it only records the first 3 numbers.

Sounds like this is a number field and not a text field. Can you confirm what type of field this was created as?

I had the wrong numerical format selected. It's good now. Thank you!
