No data found due to cost element adding leading values in report

Hi Experts,
I have an issue where when the run the analyser with some values in variable screen it is displaying the output correctly in analyser tool. I am filtering the cost element with a single value for ex 4545000 and I have kept that in rows . Still the report is working fine. But then when I go back to variable screen and change the input for ex instead of period 3 if I change it to 4 , output is null since the cost element is adding leading values to the existing value in the filter and displaying no result. for ex 4545000 is getting added with controlling area 0050 and its searching for 00500004545000 and since this is not the cost element value its not displaying output..
Any ideas how to rectify this or is it a analyser tool issue..
Thanks in advance

Hi,
In my system it looks like this:
Note that superior infoobject to 0costcenter is 0co_area

In the present Value how will I remove that decimal point and how to add those six ing zeros. I tried with CONVERSION_EXIT....but it is not giving. Help me...
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Use SPLIT and COMCATENATE fnctions.
Eg: split l_v at '.' into l_v1 l_v2
 concatenate l_v1 l_v2 into l_v.
For adding leading zeros
Use FM CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT.
Eg:
data: tknum type vttk-tknum value '99156'.
call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
 exporting
 input = tknum
 importing
 output = tknum.

@ adding leading zeros to a number

Hi,
How do I go abt adding leading zeros to a 8- digit number?
eg DATA: number(8) Type N.
    number = 16.
How do i go about converting this to '00000016'.
Note that the value in variable number would be read frm a file (Inbound prog).

Hi,
Use the function.
data: tknum type vttk-tknum value '99156'.
call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
     exporting
          input = tknum
     importing

Adding Leading Zero's to a variable

Hi friends ,
1. I want to add leading zero's to a field .
Wxample - LIFNR , if its value in a variable is 16987 then i want to convert it to standard format (0000016987).
2. I want to convert date format to system's format. In Dev server and quality server it is in different format and i'm facing problem while uploading data using BDC.Also how i'll identify that in which format it is in production.
How to get it

Hi,
Use these function Modules for ur problems..
(1)For adding leading zeroes or in sap format internal..
CONVERSION_EXIT_XXXXX_INPUT
(2)For changing date into systems internal format..
CONVERSION_EXIT_XXXXX_INPUT.
u can find out conversion routines for each corresponding domain of that field in given below procedure.

Adding leading zeros in abap objects.

Can anyone explain me
1. How to add leading zeros to a field in abap objects.
For eg:
data: dmb(6) type c value '123456',
actually the output value of c should have leading zeros added to it for length 16.
i.e '0000000000123456' . If the length of dmb is less than 16 then leading zeros should be added to that value to make it 16 as length.
Please tell me how to do it in ABAP Objects.

Hi Camila
Try to use the statement
DATA: ALPHABET(15) VALUE ' ABCDEFGHIJ',
 M1(4) VALUE 'ABCD',
 M2(6) VALUE 'BJJCA '.
SHIFT ALPHABET LEFT DELETING LEADING M1.
The field
ALPHABET
remains unchanged.
SHIFT ALPHABET LEFT DELETING LEADING SPACE.
The field ALPHABET now has the following contents:
'ABCDEFGHIJ '.
SHIFT ALPHABET RIGHT DELETING TRAILING M2.
ALPHABET now has the following contents:
' ABCDEFGHI'.
IN CHARACTER MODE
Effect
This is the default setting (see above), and the addition is therefore optional.
Note
Performance:
For performance reasons, you should avoid using SHIFT in WHILE loops.
The runtime required to shift a field with length 10 by one character to the right or left requires about 5 msn (standardized microseconds). A cyclical shift requires around 7 msn. The runtime for the ...
LEFT DELETING LEADING
... variant is around 3.5 msn, for ...
RIGHT DELETING TRAILING
... around 4.5 msn.

Adding leading zeros...

I have a number (let's say 12345) and I need to add 3 leading zeros to it and make it 00012345. I could do it by first converting the number to a string, concatenating '000' to it and then converting it back to a number.
I realize this is a trivial question, but how do you convert a number to a string and then back to a number in Oracle 10g?
Thanks.

In reference to the above, I need to store a total of 8 characters in vTgtSALES.EMPLOYEE_ID. For example, if the vTempEmpID variable has 5 characters, I need to add 3 zeros, etc. I have the following code:
vTgtSALES.EMPLOYEE_ID:=CASE Length (LTrim(RTrim(vTempEmpID)))
          WHEN 0 THEN WriteLog (pCmdID, pSubCmdID, 'Employee ID value has length of zero. WMC: ' || srcSALESNNM.WMC)
          WHEN 1 THEN '0000000' || vTempEmpID
          WHEN 2 THEN '000000' || vTempEmpID
WHEN 3 THEN '00000' || vTempEmpID
          WHEN 4 THEN '0000' || vTempEmpID
WHEN 5 THEN '000' || vTempEmpID
          WHEN 6 THEN '00' || vTempEmpID
          WHEN 7 THEN '0' || vTempEmpID                WHEN 8 THEN vTempEmpID
          ELSE WriteLog (pCmdID, pSubCmdID, 'Employee ID value too long for field. WMC: ' || srcSALESNNM.WMC)
     END;
The CASE clause does not seem to work - the actual value of vTempEmpID is stored in vTgtSALES.EMPLOYEE_ID without leading zeros being asses. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

MRP in SAP Business One 8.8 results mistake on adding Lead Days in Product.

Hi There,
Greetings !
I practiced MRP with 1 Product having just 2 Children Items having Just a single Sales Order having multiple Delivery Due Dates after 20 Days.
I have come to see the wrong MRP Recommendations when I Add 1/2/3 Lead Days in Product. Probably it's calculating weeks instead of days.

Hi Sandeep,
I have tested this and have no issue, my parent has 5 day lead time
Item A - Make - MRP - Lead time 5 Days current stock Zero
Item B1 - BUY - MRP - Lead time 2 days current stock Zero
Item B2 - BUY - MRP - Lead time 3 Days current stock Zero
BOM
A - Parent QTY -1
+B1 - Child - QTY-2
+B2 - Child -QTY 2
My Sales Order for A Qty 1 posted on 27/01(thursday) delivery on 18/02(friday)
My plan. horozon days from 27/01/ to 19/02
So MRP result suggests on 18/02 - item A - will be ready -5 days 14/02(monday) my child item B1 and B2 will be ready and by 11/02 (friday) since 12/02 and 13/02 are saturday and sunday not considered in my planning.
Order Recomendations.
Production order for A will be on raised (posted) on 11/02 and due on 18/02
Purchase for B1 will be posed on 09/02 and due on 11/02
Purchase for B1 will be posed on 08/02 and due on 11/02
Please let me know if there are any issue that you can let me know.

Adding leading zeroes (PADDING in SQL Server)

Hi to everyone,
Is there a function to add leading zeros to int converted to varchar?
I have 5, need to get varchar(5) = 00005..
I hate to do like left('00000',5-len(Int))+cast(Int as varchar)
I know in Oracle there is PAD, what about SQL Server?
Thanks

There is nothing like PAD in SQLServer 2008, but SQLServer 2012 has FORMAT ([fieldname], '00000').
For SQLServer 2008, I've found that something like this works...
Right('00000'+ convert(varchar,[fieldname]),5)

Trouble adding leading zeros to numbers in PowerShell script

I am new to PowerShell scripting (so have mercy on me please!), and I'm trying to write a script that takes simplified, menu-based user input to create a folder on the network named based on a month number and the year. The month must be expressed as a two-digit
number, but I'm trying to make it simple enough that the user only needs to input a one-digit number (for the first nine months of the year) and have the script add the leading zero (for example, if a user inputs the number "2" for February, the
script will output "02").
Here is a portion of my script:
# Get current year
$year = Get-Date -Format yyyy
# Provide menu of months for user to choose from
Write-Host "Choose the name of the month for the folder you want to create."
Write-Host "1. January"
Write-Host "2. February"
Write-Host "3. March"
Write-Host "4. April"
Write-Host "5. May"
Write-Host "6. June"
Write-Host "7. July"
Write-Host "8. August"
Write-Host "9. September"
Write-Host "10. October"
Write-Host "11. November"
Write-Host "12. December"
Write-Host " "
Do {
$mNum = Read-Host "Select the number of the month (1 - 12): "
# Convert the menu item to the month name
switch ($mNum)
1 {$month = "January"}
2 {$month = "February"}
3 {$month = "March"}
4 {$month = "April"}
5 {$month = "May"}
6 {$month = "June"}
7 {$month = "July"}
8 {$month = "August"}
9 {$month = "September"}
10 {$month = "October"}
11 {$month = "November"}
12 {$month = "December"}
default {"Invalid entry. Please select a number from 1 - 12 (without the trailing period)."}
# Validate user input. Current code is cumbersome; try to find more elegant method.
While ($mNum -ne 1 -and $mNum -ne 2 -and $mNum -ne 3 -and $mNum -ne 4 -and $mNum -ne 5 -and `
$mNum -ne 6 -and $mNum -ne 7 -and $mNum -ne 8 -and $mNum -ne 9 -and $mNum -ne 10 -and `
$mNum -ne 11 -and $mNum -ne 12)
# Add leading zeros to month number
$fNum = "{0:D2}" -f $mNum
Write-Host $fNum
When I run it, I don't get the leading zero. However, when I create a very basic script, it seems to work:
$mNum = 3
$fNum = "{0:D2}" -f $mNum
Write-Host $fNum
Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong?
Also, if anyone has a suggestion on how to better validate the user input (making sure they enter a number between 1 and 12), I would appreciate that as well.

.NET formatting is a complicated subject
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/26etazsy(v=vs.110).aspx#FormatStrings
I'm not sure how all that documentation applies when you attempt to format a value that is already a string.
In general, formatting is described as "Formatting is the process of converting an instance of a class,
structure, or enumeration value to its string representation". If it is already a string I'm not sure what to expect.
For example,
<# C: #> '3',3,'03',03,'003',003 | % { "{0:D2}" -f $_ }
3
03
03
03
003
03
<# C: #>

Adding leading zeros to the display data

hi folks,
I have the character variable of size 9, if I get the value of the variable less than 9, I need to add leading zeros to it accordingly before displaying the numeric value stored in it. I tried to use the 'SHIFT' command for that it did not work out.
here is the code..
 data: len type I,
 amount type C,
 addspace len type I.
 len = strlen( amount ).
 write: ' the length of the string',len.
 if ( len < 9 ).
 addspace = 9 - len.
 write: addspace.
SHIFT amount BY addspace Places LEFT.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Santhosh,
All the suggestions here will work. Make sure that your number is on the right justified to your character field. Here is an example.
DATA: v_char09_left_justified(09) TYPE c,
 v_char09_right_justified(09) TYPE c,
 v_numc09(09) TYPE n.
START-OF-SELECTION.
*-- in case the value is left justified in the field
v_char09_left_justified = '9 '.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
 EXPORTING
 input = v_char09_left_justified
 IMPORTING
 output = v_char09_left_justified.
WRITE:/ 'V_CHAR09_LEFT_JUSTIFIED from FM =', v_char09_left_justified.
v_numc09 = v_char09_left_justified.
WRITE:/ 'V_NUMC09 =', v_numc09.
*-- in case the value is right justified in the field
v_char09_right_justified = ' 9'.
SHIFT v_char09_right_justified LEFT DELETING LEADING space.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
 EXPORTING
 input = v_char09_right_justified
 IMPORTING
 output = v_char09_right_justified.
WRITE:/ 'V_CHAR09_RIGHT_JUSTIFIED from FM =', v_char09_right_justified.
v_numc09 = v_char09_right_justified.
WRITE:/ 'V_NUMC09 =', v_numc09.

Adding leading zeros before data loaded into DSO

Hi
In below PROD_ID... In some ID leading zeros are missing before data loaded into BI from SRM into PROD_ID. Data type is character. If leading zeros are missing then data activation of DSO is failed due to missing zeros and have to manually add them in PSA table. I want to add leading zeros if they're missing before data loaded into DSO.... total character length is 40.. so e.g. if character is 1502 then there should be 36 zeros before it and if character is 265721 then there should be 34 zeros. Only two type of character is coming either length is 4 or 6 so there will be always need to 34 or 36 zeros in front of them if zeros are missing.
Can we use CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHPA_INPUT functional module ? As this is char so I'm not sure how to use in that case.. Do need to convert it first integer?
Can someone please give me sample code? We're using BW 3.5 data flow to load data into DSO.... please give sample code and where need to write code either in rule type or in start routine...

Hi,
Can you check at info object level, what kind of conversion routine it used by.
Use T code - RSD1, enter your info object and display it.
Even at data source level also you can see external/internal format what it maintained.
if your info object was using ALPHA conversion then it will have leading 0s automatically.
Can you check from source how its coming, check at RSA3.
if your receiving this issue for records only then you need to check those records.
Thanks

Adding leading zeros in a field mapping

Hi,
I am getting account as a 5 char field in the input file. I need to map this to a 10 char field in XI and add leading zeros in case the value is all numeric. Is there any standard data type/ mapping that can achieve this or I need to write a UDF.
Thanks,

formatNum field will cause an exception if your input isnt all numeric...
I'd go for UDF id your input isnt always numeric.
Regards,
Henrique.
