Displaying leading zeros in ALV

Hi experts,
I have a field of length 12 char. I want to display the field in grid.
My requirement is if the field is below 6 char(such as 101) i want to display as 000101 .I added logic for adding zeros up to six char but the leading zeros are supressed in my grid.
I want as 000101 but it is showing as 101.
I am using REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE for building the field catalog.
How to solve this.
Thanks & regards,
karthik.

Hi,
you must work with a mask for your field like this:
repid = sy-repid.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE'
       EXPORTING
            i_program_name     = repid
            i_internal_tabname = 'MY_TABLE'
            i_inclname         = repid
       CHANGING
            ct_fieldcat        = field_catal.
Modify field for leading 000
LOOP AT field_catal INTO w_fieldcat_alv.
    CASE w_fieldcat_alv-fieldname.
      WHEN 'NUM_FELD'.                                    "<-- this is your field
        w_fieldcat_alv-edit_mask   = '000000'.
        MODIFY field_catal FROM w_fieldcat_alv.
    ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.

F8as2-displaying leading zeros in a dynamic text field

F8as2-
Background:
Currently I have to use two different text fields to display 10000 due to the different font sizes.
The 10 is a larger font and the 000 is a smaller font. When I assign '0 'to the dynamic text fields of the smaller font I get just that a '0' not a '000' which is what I want.
Question:
Is there an easy way to display leading zeros in a dynamic text field? Or can a dynamic text field have different character positions displayed in different font sizes? or both?
Thanks for the help.

F8as2-
Thanks for the reply kglad.
Are for saying the best way to display numerically calculated numbers that need leading zeros and or different font sizes is to convert them to a string for display purposes with textFormatting??

Display Leading Zeros in bex query

Hi,
I am new to BI and need to display leading zeros in bex report.
There is an info-object billing number which is of type CHAR. The values, 00001 - 00010 has been given in the CSV file.
when i generate the same in IP, the leading zeros are mentioned, but the same is not appearing in the bex query.
I have tried ALPHA conversion but this has no affect on the output.
How to achieve the same??
thanks in advance for the answers

Hi,
To answer your question in detail, there is a conversion routine at infoobject level( Tab- general ), that determines how the values are displayed in the front end. For ex, alpha conversion routine takes away the leading zeros when you display the value in query. ( 0001 displayed as 1 )
Assuming this is custom infoobject, I would suggest you to remove the conversion routine from the infoobject. This will help you in displaying leading zeros in the report.
However, you have to ensure that all the values loaded for this infoobject is properly alpha converted ( packed with leading zeros ) by adding a field routine in the transformation. This will avoid same values getting stored with different internal formats like 01,001 etc.
Hope this explains.
Thanks.

Displaying leading zeroes

Hi,
I am facing a problem in displaying leading zeroes for a char in a BW report. This char has length 4 and it should show the value as 0ABC in the report but instead it displays just ABC. When checked the info providers, the data is right there.
Technical details: length - 4, Conv Routine - ALPHA, BEx display - Key & text
Could someone please throw some light on this?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Bobs,
Here is what I understood from your query;
You have leading zeros for the char info object in the info provider but while running the query it is returning with the rest of the characters but not leading zeros?
Yes while loading in to info provider ALPHA conversion does add any leading zeros according to the char size to load in to the info provider but while reporting it does the reverse ALPHA. but you have to check the values in the master data for the char info object where the default option for query results on char objects to retrieve key and text values from char object master tables. I think the master data for the char info object might not be have leading zeros.

Display leading zeros in OLE

Hi Friends,
When I am writing report in OLE( excel ), some of the fields which are having leading zeros automatically deleted . It shoud not happen . I have to display leading zeros also.
Please tell me which class and method to do this ...
Thanks ,
Varma

Use OLE itself to set the formatting of the cell (or column itself) to character type
* character type for columns
data: h_columns        TYPE ole2_object,
      h_cell           TYPE ole2_object.
CALL METHOD OF excel 'Columns' = h_columns
EXPORTING
    #1 = 'F:K'.
set property of h_columns 'NumberFormat' = '@'.
CALL METHOD OF excel 'Cells' = h_cell
EXPORTING
    #1 = 14
    #2 = 7.
SET PROPERTY OF h_cell 'Value' = '0001'.

Suppress leading zeros for ALV column

Hello,
I have an ALV with a column mapped to a context attribute of type NUMC and would like to suppress the leading zeros being displayed. My initial solution was to change the attribute to a char/string type and remove the zeros in my code, but then, the sort functionality no longer works correctly. Any ideas if the ALV can use a 'hidden' field to do the sorting for a certain column... that way, I can display the number as a char/string without the zeros and when the user sorts the column, the ALV will use the hidden NUMC type field.
Thanx for any directions...

Hi,
You can follow the following way which i implemnted for one of my application. Here i am setting this property for the context attrubute. May be this will work. But in ALV there is no separate method for this type of setting.
**This method is used to display the Leading zeros for the Lot Number in Step-1

    node_do_not_change                  TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,

How to display leading zeros in a report

Hi folks,
I am doing a HR report and the users are very much used to seeing a two digit numeric value as the pay scale since their legacy days.
In BW, I have the Pay Scale defined as a character (2) and it shows the values on the report as follows:
Pay Scale
0
1
2
3
11, etc.
But the users would like to see 00, 01, 02, 03, 11, etc.
Under the query properties, display tab, there are four separate options - display zeros, show zeros as, etc. I tried all the options but the pay scale still does not show the leading zeros. I remember seeing a SAP note a while back that talks about this. Does anybody know how to force the leading zeros on the BEx report.
Thanks.
Abdul

Try removing the ALPHA Conversion from info object defintion.

Displaying Leading Zeros

Having recently switched to Mac and trying to embrace the iWork applications I've struggled with something that I really couldn't find help with. Since I think this is a relatively common need I am posting this message in the event others need to present a Numbers cell that has leading zeros.
The way I have found to create leading zeros in numbers is by using the CONCATENATE and RIGHT functions. Say for example you have zip codes stored in numeric format (perhaps pulled in from a database) but need them to display in a cell properly. The zip code for Salem, NH is 03079. If you have the value 3079 stored you need that leading zero added.
Assuming 3079 is stored in A1 you could add the following formula into an adjoining field:
=RIGHT(CONCATENATE("00000",A1),5)
CONCATENATE turns A1 into a string ("000003079") and RIGHT grabs the 5 right-most characters from that string.
If someone else has a better way of handling this please do comment.

Display leading zeros

How to take an integer with no leading zeros and display it
with leading zeros?
Thank you in advance.

There are a couple of ways. Let's say you are looking for 7
digits altogether.
Method 1
NewString = '0000000' & thenumber;
NewString = right(newString, 7);
Method 2
while (len(thenumber) lt 7)
thenumber = '0' & thenumber;

Leading zeros are not displaying in the excel

Hi Experts,
Leading zeros are not displaying in the excel
Here is the situation:
I have developed one report, which will create the file in Application server with TAB deleimeted. After that I am sending that file via email in the excel format using Email functionality FM.
Normally our material numbers will start with zeros.
But when I check the email excel file , leading zeros are not displaying.
Even I checked the application server (AL11) file, zeros are there.
I thought program FM was wrong and I tried it manually by downloading the file into excel. Eventhough it is suppressing zeros.
Could you please advise, how to display leading zeros to the material number in excel file.
Thanks in advance
Raghu

Application server file showing zeros infront of the material number.
1200# 0012401387# XXXXXXXX
Once file created in app server, I am using one custom FM to send that output in excel format / txt format via email.
when I send txt file via email, I am getting leading zeros. But when I send xls file via email, I am not getting zeros.
I checked custom FUNCTION MODULE . No mistakes in that.
===
Sudhir,
As you said, I passed ( ' ) single quote infront of the material number. When I check the excel file, single quote also displaying like this '0000100.
Application server file showing like below
1200# '0012401387# XXXXXXXX
===
Could you please advise anyone how can we acheive this.
Thanks

ALV: ADD leading ZEROs in a CHAR field

Hello Everybody!
I have a problem and I hope you can help me
What I have:
1. ALV (hier)
2. Char field 'DEBIT' type SAKNR.
3. Field catalog TYPE slis_t_fieldcat_alv,
   created by FUNCTION MODULE 'REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE'.
The problem is: i need to show leading zeros in ALV.
For example: an account '07110000' (in the inner table) is shown as '7110000'.
What I've done:
1. ls_fieldcat-lzero = 'X'.
     ls_fieldcat-no_convext = 'X'.
2. CLEAR ls_fieldcat-ref_tabname.
     ls_fieldcat-lzero = 'X'.
( ls_fieldcat-ref_fieldname was clear after filling by the function module)
I'm realy waiting for your advice!

I've tried it, but it doesn't work:
    ls_fieldcat-outputlen = 8.
    ls_fieldcat-lzero = 'X'.
    ls_fieldcat-no_convext = 'X'.

    ls_fieldcat-datatype = 'NUMC'.
    ls_fieldcat-inttype = 'N'.

How to remove leading zero in a inputfield

I have a inputfield UI element which is bind to a NUM type context. When it display a number, it always come with leading zero, like '001'. Can anyone teach me how to remove the leading zero.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/3a/2232666aeb45f4b759848a4caf9c8b/frameset.htm
Use the Display leading zeros formatting option in the context attribute properties.
The other option is to use a data dictionary domain for the field that has a built in field conversion exit. The ALPHA conversion exit is commonly used on NUMC fields like Sales Order number to suppress leading zeros. The WD runtime will automatically use the underlying DDIC Domain Field Conversion Exit. You don't need to do anything except use that DDic to define the context.
