Numberformat exception

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I am indexing different type of fields that include number and strings.
When I use multimatch queries (that includes both number and string fields)
for terms such as "2001 camaro", I get NumberFormatException. I understand
why this is happening but wondering if this can be avoided. Temporarily, I
have fixed it by indexing all fields as strings instead of numbers.

Example:
Fields used : year (number) and model (string)
multimatch cross type query includes both year and model.
search query: 2001 camaro

On this issue is being worked on

Indexing all fields as strings seems like a plausible workaround.
