Hello again, I have a problem when I copy I get decimals, check the table and the configuration of each of the columns I have selected “precision” 1, but it keeps throwing decimals.

Setting precision on a numeric column is only for display purposes. The underlying value is still preserved. If you need the value to be truly rounded, then it’s best to either use a template column to lock in the precision and convert it into a text string, or use a math column with a round function, so the result is truly rounded.
