You can keep the CDT field type in Appian as string and map it to a DECIMAL (18, 9) column in the back end database. For instance the xsd element in your cdt can be as follows -

<xsd:element name="decValue" nillable="true" type="xsd:string">
    <xsd:annotation>
        <xsd:appinfo source="appian.jpa">@Column(name="decValue", columnDefinition="DECIMAL")</xsd:appinfo>
    </xsd:annotation>
</xsd:element>

On the Appian interface, use a text field to capture this value from user but make sure it is validated for decimal (18, 9) or else database write will fail.
