I have a problem calling a webservice with a decimal value. At a certain height

I have a problem calling a webservice with a decimal value. At a certain height of the decimal value the internal encoding of the value becomes something like "1.0E8". I can still make this readible using the text() function. However if I send it to a webservice the service throws an error message that this is not a valid value for a decimal.

Is there a way to fix this other than using a string in the xml and have the service convert it internally?...

The issue has been reported to our Product Team. Your reference number is #AN-47157.
Convertign this value to text also fails because the conversion only happens at Appian level, once it is received by the Web Service it is still interpreted as a decimal and as such it fails.
The workaround available would then be to receive the value as text.
