Convert value during a join statement

Question

Hi folks,
Is there a way to convert value of a table field during a select statement? I have a sql statement that doesn't work because a field has zero characters prefix.
SELECT EBANBANFN EBANBNFPO EBANSTATU EBANBSART EBANMENGE EBANLFDAT EKKOAEDAT EKKOEBELN EKKO~LIFNR
      INTO TABLE GT_RFQ_DATA
      FROM EBAN JOIN EKKO ON EKKOSUBMI = EBANBANFN
EBANBANFN = '0003006807' and EKKOSUBMI = '3006807'
Is it possible to do a join with that condition? Will reward points.
Note: I know how to get those data without a join, so I will not give out reward points for those advices.
Thanks for all of your helps.

Try using the fucntion module CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT to pad with leading Zeros
if you want to convert the value of
EKKOSUBMI = '3006807' to EKKOSUBMI = '0003006807'
or if you want to remove leading zeros
use CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT function module.
Data: v_submi like ekko-submi.
v_submi = '3006807'
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
    EXPORTING
        INPUT  = v_submi
    IMPORTING
        OUTPUT = v_submi
    EXCEPTIONS
         OTHERS = 1.
SELECT EBANBANFN EBANBNFPO EBANSTATU EBANBSART EBANMENGE EBANLFDAT EKKOAEDAT EKKOEBELN EKKO~LIFNR
INTO TABLE GT_RFQ_DATA
FROM EBAN JOIN EKKO ON EKKOSUBMI = EBANBANFN
EBANBANFN = '0003006807' and EKKOSUBMI = v_submi
