Error: Incorrect use of thousand-mark comma

[Enrico68]

Hello whenever I try to add a transaction I have the following error

Error: Incorrect use of thousand-mark comma
While parsing file "", line 3:
While parsing posting:
  Assets:Cash         € 1,00,,000
                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This a screen of the transaction.

transaction decimals using commas, not periods. Tell me how it went.
