Adobe 8 & Printing leading zeros

Good afternoon,
I'm pretty new at creating forms and I need to have a field formatted to print the leading zero on our Loan ID (ie Load # 01) that is required for our imaging system to index correctly. Can anyone please point me in the right direction for doing this ? I have searched the knowledge base for help and found a couple of entries, but I'm unsure how to use the information. Thank you.

I think that was one of the solutions that I found out there, but I have never used java scripting and do not know the correct syntax for it. I tried to google the util.printf() and RegExp but could not find an example of how to print the zeros and not eliminate them. Thank you for responding.

Leading zero's while printing total pages in Smartforms

Hi All,
I have a requirement where i need to print leading zero's when printing the total number of pages in a smartform.
I have used Page &sfsy-page& of &sfsy-formpages(Z3.0)&
But for the above we get the output as Page 1 of 2, Page 2 of 2. and so on...
But my requirement is it shoud come as Page 1 of 002, Page 2 of 002.
The total number of pages will always be less than 999. and we need total of 3 numbers displayed.
Ex: Page 1 of 002 or Page 1 of 010 or Page 1 of 100...
Thanks,
Hari Prasad.

Hi Sudha,
We have tried that too and we get the output as Page 1 of 001. Page 2 of 002.
inside the node sfsy-formpages gives the current page number.
Thanks,
Hari Prasad.

Leading zeros and editing figures

Hello,
Just need the following on a query:
To get rid of 0unit or 0currency:
Quatity 14ST -> 14
Import 145,320US -> 145,320
To print leading zeros:
Item 10 -> 000010
Item 480 -> 000480
Item 10289 -> 010289
To print editing on figures and percentages:
145,320 -> $ 145, 320.00
6.69 -> 6.69%
Thanks in advanced.

Pejl,
You can take care of currency display as follows:
For ex: If you define a keyfigure "Discount" with Type :Amount and data type CURR-Currency field,stored
as DEC and under Currency tab select 0currency
for Unit/currency
Unit InfoObject (currency/unit)
This field describes which InfoObject has the unit key figure. For quantity key figures and amount key figures, either this field has to be filled, or there has to be a fixed currency or a quantity unit.

How do I use the print function to output a numeric variable with a fixed amount of leading zeroes

I need to create an output from a T-SQL query that picks a numeric variable and uses the print function to output with leading zeroes if it is less than three characters long when converted to string. For example if the variable is 12 the output should
be 012 and if the variable is 3 the output should be 003.
Presently the syntax I am using is PRINT STR(@CLUSTER,3) . But if @CLUSTER which is numeric is less than three characters I get spaces in front.
Please help!

>> I need to create an output from a T-SQL query .. <<
NO! NO! In RDBMS, we have a presentation layer that handles displays. We do not ever do it in the database. This is fundamental. But more than that, the purpose of PRINT is for debugging in T-SQL and never for output.
You are still writing 1960's COBOL or BASIC, but you want to to it in SQL. You probably picked the wrong data type (a numeric that should be a string) and are trying to repair your design error.

How to remove thease leading zeros. Can anybody jelp me in this regard its high priority.
I need to display text in the last page even though the current page is not filled fully, How to trigger new page in this case?
                                          Thanks
                                          Ranganadh

Ranga,
Fill the table itself without leading zeros. Or you can remove the leading zeros using SHIFT command before display.
If you are using footer, in condition tab you can use 'Only on Page' option.

Need to show leading zeros in the number field when printed from RDF

We have a requirement to show leading zeros in the rdf output.
We cannot use a format mask to achieve the same as the length of the field is not fixed.
for ex if we have 0.68 then the same is printed in RDF as .68
we cannot use a format mask as the length of the field is not fixed.
we need to
Kindly suggest if any solution exists for the same.

the numbers after the decima can be anything..
it can range between 2 to 10 or more...
as told by you if we put the format as to_char(.68,'90.99') it shall give 0.68 but what for numbers like0.678,0.4567,0.765433 it will display only 2 digits after the decimal...
The requirement is to dispaly the number as it is ,only the zeroes before the decimal should stay intact..
we are not able to achieve this in rdf output..
if it is
0.678 then 0.678 shld be dispalyed
0.4567 then 0.4567
0.765433 then 0.765433
one format mask shld wrk for all the above..
we would not be changing the format mask for each number....

Leading zeros from Adobe form web service data connection

I created a web service for BAPI_PRODORD_GET_DETAIL and used it as a data connection in an Adobe form. When executing the connection using request parameters of:
Number = [Production Order #]
OrderObjects.Operations = 'X'
no production orders are found.
I debugged and discovered the BAPI only found production orders when the Number importing parameter contained padded leading zeros. After searching the forums, I suspect (1) I have the wrong field type and / or pattern for the production order number input field or (2) SAP Note 1050826 may apply.
Does anyone have suggestions on which field types and patterns to use? I have tried each of Text, Numeric, and Decimal. When using Numeric, I set the data format to Float instead of Integer. I tried data patterns such as: num , the data displays with leading zeros but does not pass to the BAPI with them.
I was also thinking a Formcalc or Javascript may be the solution.
Livecycle version: 8.1.2
Component SAP_APPL: 603 (for SAP note relevancy)
Thank you,

Hello,
maybe it would be the fastest approach here to work with the value as a string and check the length of the "string" and if needed add some leading zeros. You may try some validations, so the value entered by the user is denied if not in the respective format.

Leading zero was lost in spool when ALV print out

When run a ALV report and print out in background job,the leading zero is lost
e.g.: vendor (type c)
      0000000001
        In spool:   1..
How to show the leading zero when printing out ?
Thanks in advance

hi,
You can use FM
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
       EXPORTING
         input         =
     IMPORTING
       OUTPUT        =
where input parameter and output parameter would be ths vendor(the field you want with zeros)
Hope this will help you.
thanks

ABAP-based web service returns numeric values with leading zeros

Hi SOA experts,
I have created a web service out of an ABAP function module. Beside other values, this service returns a list of document numbers. All of these numeric values are returned by the web service with leading zeros, but we do want these values w/o leading zeros.
Any ideas how I can tell the web service to not print any leading zeros?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Kind regards, Matthias
PS: The according function module does not print any leading zeros for the numeric values

hi,
just a guess: I'd try to use I instead of NUMC for the document numbers.
NUMC is no number but a character string with numeric characters only. only some display routines in SAP know that this string of numerals represents a number and omit leading zeroes.
my 2 cents,
anton

Delete leading zeros for a field on the pdf form

Hi,
i know it is possible to delete leading zeros via abap coding in the interface.
But is it also possible to this directly on the pdf form - scripting or a setting?
Thank you
Kind regards
Manfred

I believe you can set this up as a field display pattern (if you use LCD 8.1 or something like that).
Or you can script that out. In formcalc you can easily process characater by character, test if that is zero and remove it.

File rename doesn't add leading zeros to renaming files sequence? And a pat on the back to the LR de

First of all, LR truly rocks. Any Adobe folk reading this, please take this note as a massive pat on the back for your team. There's a lot of childish and naive negativity from people posting in this forum. And I suspect from folk who are not really your key market for this app. I feed my kids by running a photography business and have been shooting digital since the early 90s...ya know...
LR will be looked at as a massive sea change in the development of digital photography. The first time the entire workflow process is truly viable from end to end. What will make LR the ultimate winner in it's field is simply the integration with Photoshop. Aperture, Capture One etc cannot ever beat LR regarding this and so, just like the way that Excel and Word and Powerpoint all work together and everyone uses them, LR will inevitably become the de facto standard way of managing RAW images for pro photographers.
Even with the few bugs (specifically file movingon Mac OS10.4.9) LR has shaved HOURS off our workflow. We shoot around 250 gigs of images a month in our weddings and event business. Now all of our editors use LR. No more Capture One etc for us.
Here's the question - There seems to be no way to add leading zeros to a file rename command. So if you rename a batch of images they appear as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 etc so now when I look at them in Bridge or other apps, they are now sorted 1,10,11, etc
Now let me tell ya this is a pain.
Any comments or comfort that is is a known issue would be appreciated. All we want is a way to have the rename add the leading zeros like most other apps do...
Best to all

PS By the way, I am a HARD *** about shoddy unstable software sold to pro photographers as the "prefect solution" that doesnt work as advertised...I am that guy that the tech support guys at certain companies dread. Yep, I simply expect an app to do what it says, just like the car I buy. I once resorted to sending the CEO of a certain software company an invoice for my time restarting, reinstalling the OS and bug finding another similar app. You can image, I got a personal call...heh...

William-
 
 I just changed a folder of 85 images' names, and typed in 001 as my starting number. While no zeroes were prepended, the pix show up in order both in the Finder and in Bridge CS3.
 
 Say a bit more about file moving on your Macs.....

Leading zeros getting truncated in plsql report

Hi,
I've a requirement of a plsql report with an excel output. When i see the output in excel, the leading zeros get truncated. Is there any suggestion for this, other than enclosing within ' '. Because this particular solution prints the output along with quotes which is not acceptable. Please help me with this.
-Divya Goteti

Just prefix with =" and " at teh end of column. like
select '="' || bank_account_no || '"' from employee_bank_list
but if you are using same report for pdf also then use decode in pre/postfix.

How can I format a number with leading zeros?

I need to convert an int to occupy exactly 3 positions in a StringBuffer... I need the space in the StringBuffer to be filled with leading zeros where appropriate. Can anyone show me how to do this correctly please ?
At the moment I am using a pretty dumb workaround to fill the target with "000" first and then parse the int into either 1 2 or 3 positions depending on its value ... it works, but there must be a more correct way to do this ...
Thanks in advance ...

Have you had a look at the class java.text.DecimalFormat? It does exactly what you want... example:
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
DecimalFormat format = new DecimalFormat("000");
format.format(2, sb, new FieldPosition(0));
System.out.println(sb);
prints out the string 002.
