Display of leading zeros for a GL account in FS00

Hi all,
does anyone know is it possible to set something in SAP so that in transaction FS00 the gl account number is displayed with leading zeros? Now they are removed.
Thanks!
D.

Hi Dusan,
"Alpha conversion" is already implemented on the domain (SAKNR) itself. You can modify the system (take out conversion exit "ALPHA") from domain SAKNR but I'm guessing this might create inconsistencies in many other dictionary objects.
I think it's better to consider alternavtives - like using character + number as GL account (e.g. A345999)..
Best regards, Kyoko

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
DATA:
    node_do_not_change                  TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
    node_d0130_sapmf05a                 TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
    node_pstap                          TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
    node_info                           TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info,
    ls_fprops                           TYPE wdy_attribute_format_prop.
node_do_not_change = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_do_not_change ).
node_d0130_sapmf05a = node_do_not_change->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_d0130_sapmf05a ).
node_pstap = node_d0130_sapmf05a->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_pstap ).
node_info = node_pstap->get_node_info( ).
ls_fprops = node_info->get_attribute_format_props( 'VALUE' ).
ls_fprops-null_as_blank = if_wd_context_node_info=>c_format_null_as_BLANK.
node_info->set_attribute_format_props(
    name              = 'VALUE'
    format_properties = ls_fprops ).

Leading zero in G/L account

Hello together,
OSS 10714 describes, that it is not possible to create or to use accounts with leading zeroes and in standard SAP it will never be possible. But if you need to have it, SAP can make it possible.
In my case it has to be done. It's a mustn or rather we are discussing about it. There are voices who are adamant that it works and other who say no. How ever if it has to be - then SAP will have to do the modification.
So can somebody tell me how many man days approximately it will cost to let SAP do this modification?
Thanks in advance.
Heiko

Hi,
the requirement is to be able to create them with leading zeroes, to display them with the exact number of leading zeros and of course to print them with the exact number of leading zeroes.
I just spoke again with our controlling and it showed me again the problem.
We dont have accounts with leading zero, but the destination accounts (also a SAP System) have leading zeroes.
At the moment they have to work with 2 charts of accounts daily and this is a great handicap for them. The goal is just to work with the same chart of account as the destination system.
Thanks for your estimation - thats something I can and did communicate - but I have to do a SAP call to get an "offer".
Regards
Heiko

Removal of leading zeros for material no. in report

hi
my issue is that i have to remove leading zeros for material number when displaying in alv grid.iam getting output.but leading have to truncated automatically.
eg: 000000000000000102
the ouput should be 102.
please do provide solution for this or any function module.thanks in advance.

Hi Sanjana,
while populating the internal table use the conversion exit available for MATNR. this will remove the leading zeros.
oter possible way, declare the internaltable by referring the data element MATNR, i hope if you do this, it will delete the leading zeros automaticallt.
or if you declare the internal table field as charecter type, use the ALPLA_CONVERSION_EXIT_INPUT ot OUTPUT function module to remove the leading zeros.
Reward the points if it is helpful..

How to get the leading zeros for decimal values?

Hi,
How i wil get the leading zeros for decimal values.For CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT it is not working.Now iam using overlay condition for getting leading zeros.But iam getting the value like 00013.500.But as per my requirement i want to display this value 0000013.5.
my code is
                overlay w_MetLife_detail-rdempsalary with '000000000'
                data :rdempsalary     type char9
Please help me on this.
Regards,
Sujan

Hi
For more info,
The function of the statement UNPACK is based on the fact, that the BCD display of a decimal place corresponds to the second half-byte of code of a digit in the most character representations. This conversion is commonly called "unpacking".
The statement PACK to pack is obsolete and can be replaced by MOVE.
If destination is specified as untyped field symbol or as untyped formal parameter and is not flat and not character-type during execution of the statement, then an untreatable exception occurs in Unicode programs. In non-Unicode programs, an exception occurs only with deep types, whereas flat types are treated as character-type types.
Example
After the assignments,char1 and char2 contain the values "123.456" and "0000123456".
DATA: pack TYPE p LENGTH 8 DECIMALS 3 VALUE '123.456',
      char1 TYPE c LENGTH 10,
      char2 TYPE c LENGTH 10.
MOVE   pack TO char1.
UNPACK pack TO char2.

Remove Leading zeros for Material in Transformation

Hi Experts,
I'm using DTP first time. I don't have much exp on DTP & Transformations.
I'm creating infocube with some objects. I want to remove leading zeros for zmaterial.
In 3.x writen update routines as fallows:
data: zmat(18) type c.
zmat = COMM_STRUCTURE-/BIC/ZMAT.
shift zmat left deleting leading '0'.
result value of the routine
RESULT = zmat.
I'm confusing in Transfermation where to write this routines.
I'm writing in Transformation as fallows:
data: zmat(18) type c.
zmat = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/ZMAT.
shift zmat left deleting leading '0'.
RESULT = zmat.
But it's getting remove zero's.
Anybody suggest on this.
Siri

Dear Sir,
No confusion at all.
Just double click on the Target Infoobjct i,e Material object in Transformation, you will see a wizard popping up.
There you will see a option called "RULE TYPE" and the default value will be "Direct Assignment". In the same check box click on the drop down icon and select "Routine".
The moment you select the routine option, it will open up ABAP workspace where in you can write your routine and get the desired result.
Hope it helps.

Leading Zeros in Cost Center Account Creation

Hi All,
I am creating new cost centers using KS01. The problem I have is that the numbering system that my client requires have leading zeros for some of the cost centers, e.g. 00702. However, the system is not taking the leading zeros and creating them as 702 using my earlier example. Is there any way I can force the system to accept the leading zeros. Thank you for your responses.

Yomi

Hi,
I do not think it is feasible... have a read on this OSS note :
Note 106971 - FAQ: Automatic Leading Zeroes for Numeric Fields
Hope this helps.

Delete leading zeros for material in mapping.

Hi,
How to delete leading zeros for material like 0000000128736 if so I am expecting 128736 only.

Hi,
If you will be getting alphanumeric codes, it would be best to use a UDF with a regex-expression.
UDF Type:
ContextType
imports:
java.util.regex; (if you are using PI 7.1 you must remove the semicolon)
arguments:
input1
Here's the code (courtesy of Sun Developer Network):
        Pattern p = Pattern.compile("[^a-zA-Z]");
        Matcher m = p.matcher(input1[0]);
        StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
        boolean output = m.find();
        while(output) {
            m.appendReplacement(sb, "");
            output = m.find();
        m.appendTail(sb);
result.addValue(input1[1]);
Now to solve the leading zeroes, just add formatNumber: 0 after the UDF and it will work.
Hope this helps,

Leading zero for the instance

hi,
my numbers looks like 0 or -0,23 or ,45...
but i want to have a leading zero, e.g. 0,0 or 0,45

but i want to have the leading zero for the whole instance.
is that possible?
thx.

I have field access sequence value(VAKEY) which is concatenated by sales org, distibution chnl and division
(0100/01/01). the field is populating proprerly in internal tables, but in ALV display it is displaying as 100/01/01. How to consider leading zero in ALV for a CHAR datatype field.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Srnii,
You can use the below sample statement
Shift mara-matnr right deleting trailing ' '.
overlay mara-matnr with '0000000'.

Eliminating Leading Zeros for Input

Hello,
I am very new to the world of Netweaver Portals and Web Dynpro, so please have some patience.
I have created an application in Web Dynpro which will display the Stock Requirements for a Material. Everything is working fine with the exception that the User needs to enter 10 leading zeros before they enter the material number. Is this something that I can correct in Web Dynpro, or is there something I need to do on the R/3 side?
In R/3, the user can simply type in the 7 digit material number, but in my Web Dynpro App, they need to enter a 17 digit number (10 leading zeros and the 7 digit mat number).
I have checked other topics, but couldn't find where this exact issue has been addressed. Thanks for your help.
Paul

Paul,
one possible solution for this issue might be to write some code to add the missing zeros. For example you can put the coding in a action method.
Please take a look at the following snippet:
// get the material number from context (this is the number entered by the user)
String id = wdThis.wdGetWelcomeComponentController().wdGetContext().currentContextElement().getMaterialID();
if(id.length() < 17) {
for(int i = 0; i < 17 - id.length(); i++) {
id = "0" + id;
// your id is now a 17 digit number
I that helps you.
