SharePoint List Display Number Without Comma using Edit option
Now we will see how to remove a thousand separators from the SharePoint list Number column.
Example:
- I have a SharePoint Online list named Floormats. This list has a Number column called Floormat Quantity Available.
- In the below screenshot, you can see the number column (Floormat Quantity Available) appearing with a separator like 65,952. But I do not want to display this number column with a separator comma and it should display like 65952 in my case. So I will remove the separator from the number column.

Refer to the steps below to remove a thousand separators from a SharePoint Number column:
- Expand the Number column (Floormat Quantity Available) -> click on the Column settings -> Click on Edit.

- On the Edit column pane, Expand More options -> Disable the ‘Use thousand separator’ (Before this option was enabled by default) -> Click on Save.

- Now, go back to your existing SharePoint List (Floormats) and you can see the number column (Floormat Quantity Available) has been updated without separator commas as shown below.

This is how we can work with SharePoint List Display Number Without Commas using the Edit option.

"$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
"elmType": "div",
"attributes": {
"class": "=if(@currentField > 0,'', '')"
},
"children": [
{
"elmType": "span",
"style": {
"display": "inline-block"
}
},
{
"elmType": "span",
"txtContent": "@currentField"
}
]
}
Refer to the screenshot below.
