+7Due to the way decimals get stored one dataset may, for example, contain 1.7 and another 1.700000003. I can tell by looking that they’re the same as the data has no more than 4 decimal places.
It would be nice if the ChangeDetector had a tolerance for numbers. If I used 0.00001 for the above, as the difference between them is less than that, it would treat the data as unchanged.
+58Prior to changeDetector you may want to check the schema and the data type of the numerical attribute you are testing in changeDetector
attributeManager set data type for the numerical field in original and another in revised inputs going into chnageDetector
you can also set the precision of decimals using AttirbuteRounder on this numerical field

I did solve it with AttributeRounders. It’d still be nice to have the ChangeDetector include a rounding tolerance instead.
