String to float in Zoho Flow

String to float in Zoho Flow

Hi,
I have set up a Zoho Flow between Zoho Books and Zoho Sheet to catch quotes with certain filters. the problem occured with amount data format. In Zoho Flow I get the quote amount as string and it is pased into Sheet as a text.
Doeas anyone have any idea how to convert the data from string to float (?) . I suppose the Custom functions in Flow are needed...


Best regards 
Pawel
