Hi!

I created a column called Number (type Number, in percent) in SharePoint 2013 and then I started a workflow.

The workflow is setting a variable trying to 'Upload an item' and filling in the number (30) into the field Number. I don't get an error but when I view the item it says 3,000 % in the column Number.
In the column settings I set number of decimal places to 0.

What should I do?

Set Variable: Number = 30
Update Item: Set Current Item Field Number to (Workflow Data) Number
Result:
(the 20 was filled in by hand)

It is just like Excel, where if the format is chosen to be shown in %, then the number is multiplied by 100.

The simplest way I can think of is to add a "Math Operation" action before Update Item, and divide it by 100.
