Additional Information

In addition to setting the bind::esri:fieldType, the user must add the decimal value to the bind::type to hidden questions. This is because the bind::esri:fieldType only controls the field type created in the feature layer. To control the field type for a question during a survey for the calculation to execute properly, use the bind::type column. Refer to https://doc.arcgis.com/en/survey123/desktop/create-surveys/esricustomcolumns.htm#GUID-1176C96B-41CA-4607-8F19-86AC2E9A66E0 for more information.

Workaround

Do not make the questions hidden.
