How to append leading zeros

Dear Friends,
In a transparent table xyz I have one field 'Bill No.' which is of character type & length 10. when I insert data in this table the value for this field gets stored as '0000000001'.
I am facing a problem when the user is giving value of Bill No. as '1'. It doesn't pick the data because the corresponding value in my table is '0000000001'.
Once I have used the function CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT' to remove the leading zeros but here I have to append the leading zeros.
How to overcome this pls advise.
Regards,
Alok.

Hi,
Use the following FM:
CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT converts any number into a string fill with zeroes, with the number at the extreme right
Example:
input = 123
output = 0000000000000...000000000000123
Hope this helps.
Reward if helpful.
Regards,
Sipra

Appending leading zeros to material number

Hi,
I want to form a object key for material number. so i need to append leading zeros to material number. but i am getting "TYPE CONFLICT" shot dump in FM 'BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL'.
The following code is giving the dump.
data: wa_object(18) type c.
wa_object = '100301010'. "Material No
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
EXPORTING
    INPUT         = wa_object
    IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        = wa_object.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL'

    OBJECTKEY              = wa_object
    OBJECTTABLE            = 'MARA'

    RETURN                 = IT_RETURN
Please tell me how to rectify the short dump which uses Conversion_exit_alpha_input.
Thanks .

Hi Shankar,
When ever u pass parameters to any function module the type of parameters must match with the ones defined in function module. Here u defined ur object key like this
data: wa_object(18) type c.(18 digits). But the in function module it referenced with BAPI1003_KEY-OBJECT (50 digits). So u have to define the variable with BAPI1003_KEY-OBJECT.
Check this solution. It will work for u.
data: wa_object(18) type c,
           wa_object1 TYPE BAPI1003_KEY-OBJECT.
wa_object = '100301010'. "Material No
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
EXPORTING
INPUT = wa_object
IMPORTING
OUTPUT = wa_object.
wa_object1 = wa_object.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL'
EXPORTING
OBJECTKEY = wa_object1
OBJECTTABLE = 'MARA'
CLASSNUM = 'FINISHED_MATERIAL'
CLASSTYPE = '001'
KEYDATE = SY-DATUM
UNVALUATED_CHARS = ' '
LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU
TABLES
ALLOCVALUESNUM = IT_ALLOCVALUESNUM
ALLOCVALUESCHAR = IT_ALLOCVALUESCHAR
ALLOCVALUESCURR = IT_ALLOCVALUESCURR
RETURN = IT_RETURN

How to remove leading zero from Material Number

Hello Everyone,
I need to figure it out how to remove leading zero from material number. Cureently extractor is sending material number as 100663. But when comes into BI i am getting as "000000000000100663" and similariy in report it is appearing as "000000000000100663". Now my client wants me to exclude preceeding zero for a material in all the reports.
Is there any setting in query desinger to handle this issure or in the backend.
Need your inputs.
Thanks,
Lasya.

Hi
you can use the function Module
CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT in the start routine
to test this go to SE37 --- give the CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT -
>display -
> F8
in the input give 000000456
and execute
the out put will be 456
for getting Zeros you can use
CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT--- to remove leading zeros

How to remove leading zeros from variable

hi,
   how to remove leading zeros from variable like it_vbap-matnr.
value in it_vbap-matnr is 000000000000000358
i want to remove leading zeros so that it become 358
regards
deepak

You can use Function Module <b>'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT'</b>
This Function Module will eliminate leading Zeros.
For each MATNR Value read form DB Table,u can eliminate Leading zeros and then modify ur Internal table.
I think u will not get leading Zeros into utr Internal table when u read from VBAP.
Bcoz MATNR in VBAP itself have Conversion routine.
If u r getting leading zeros,U can use following Logic.
tables:
vbap.
data:
   t_vbap like standard table of vbap.
select matnr
from vbap
into corresponding fields of table t_vbap.
loop at t_vbap into vbap.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT'
      EXPORTING
        INPUT         = vbap-matnr
      IMPORTING
        OUTPUT        = vbap-matnr
modify t_vbap from vbap transporting matnr.
endloop.
Hope this will work.....

How to delimit leading zero in vendor number in OO ABAP ALV without using conversion routine

Hi,
How to delimit leading zero in OO ABAP ALV without using conversion routine, because I have many fields like vendor, customer, material number etc..
How to address this leading zero.
I appreciate your quick response.
Regards,
Nalini S.

Hi Nalini,
Delimiting leading zeros in fields has to be done via conversion routines, as suggested by Vadamalai you need to pass on the conversion routine name in you field catalog variable.
Now as to which object oriented approach are you using to have your table contents display in ALV as it matters -
Using FACTORY method of CL_SALV_TABLE class, or
Using SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY method of CL_GUI_ALV_GRID class.
Using FACTORY method of CL_SALV_TABLE will do your own work, no need to apply any conversion routines or set long/medium/short text for columns as we do in field catalogs!

Append Leading Zero's

Hi ,
the follwing SQL generates Zero's prefixed to the rownum. While inserting the data into table all the zero's go away
why ?
How can i insert data with Zero's ?

(Case length(rownum)
when 1 then '0000'||rownum
when 2 then '000'||rownum
when 3 then '00'||rownum
when 4 then '0'||rownum
else
to_char(rownum)
END )

Out put of the above query
00001
00002

00007
When used with INSERT statement the table has the values as
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
Where did the Zero's GO?????
the table column data type is Number......
Thanks

Is the ciolumn that you are inserting into ..declared as a number or is it a varchar2?
sql> create table t(
2    id number
3 );
Table created.
sql> insert into t values (0001);
1 row created.
sql> insert into t values(0002);
1 row created.
sql> commit;
Commit complete.
sql> select * from t;
        ID
         1
         2If you declare it as a varchar2...
sql> create table t(
2    id varchar2(10));
Table created.
sql> insert into t values ('0001');
1 row created.
sql> insert into t values ('0002');
1 row created.
sql> commit;
Commit complete.
sql> select * from t;
ID
0001
0002But why do you want to store the values appended with leading zero's in your table..???

How to retain leading zeros in module pool screen

Hi experts,
I have a ztable field of type NUMC4 being displayed on a module pool screen, the value in the field is '0001', but on the screen it displays value as '1' (without leading zeros), When I save the record, Even in the databse it stores as '1'.
But I have checked in debugging the field always contains '0001' in the program execution and I have also used 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT' in the PBO but no use.
Pls suggest.
Thanks,
Deepak

Check the screen attributes for the field. There is an option to show leading zeroes.
edit.
And how did you see it was stored a 1 and not 0001? Using SE16N? Mind you: with SE16N conversion-exits are executed automatically thus showing 0001 as 1.
To make sure: double click on the record in SE16N and look if it's still 1 and not 0001.

How to add leading zeros to a packed variable

Hi all,
I have a to add leading zeros for a packed field.
eg.
Data : brgew like mara-brgew.
brgew = '12.063'.
but I have to display the field as '0000000000012.063'.
How can we achieve this?
Regards.

Execute the code .
REPORT zex13 .
Data : brgew like mara-brgew.
brgew = '12.063'.
data:val(18) type c,
     in(13) type n ,
     dec(6) type c.
data : a type i ,
        b type i.
        a = TRUNC( brgew ).
        write:/ a .
in = a.
write:/ in.
        dec = frac( brgew ).
        write:/ dec.
        concatenate in dec+2(4) into val separated by '.'.
        write:/ val.
see if this works for u .

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.

How to remove leading Zeroes in all fields in Payload

Hi,
How can I remove the leading Zeroes in every Filed I have in whole Payload Structure.there are around 10000 fields that have to be removed the leading Zeroes.any good idea please.
   <POSNR>000010</POSNR>
<MATNR>000002465640</MATNR>
<ARKTX>000012 KG D107</ARKTX>
<MATKL>00030010000</MATKL>
<WERKS>0000ORGC</WERKS>
<LGORT>0000GC55</LGORT>
<CHARG>000TEST</CHARG>
like this mutliple segments and multiple Fields.so I can take as whole payload with multiple fields should not have leading Zeroes.I can handle if they are 10 0r 20 fileds,but not like whole pay load/1000 fields right.
thank you,
Prem

Hi
You can have an additional XSLT mapping, to your existing one..
use copy-of & apply-templates to copy the whole tree & make changes recursively.
below is a sample code , the marked line is where you need to try your logic of trimming Zeros. (this code does upper case)
add this below code in your interface mapping object, as XSLT mapping, which does the job (only try putting your logic)
<xsl:stylesheet
                  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                  version="2.0">
            <xsl:output method="xml"
                        indent="yes"
                        omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
            <xsl:template match="*">
                  <xsl:copy>
                        <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
                        <xsl:apply-templates/>
                  </xsl:copy>
            </xsl:template>
            <xsl:template match="text()">
                  <xsl:value-of select="upper-case(.)"/>
            </xsl:template>
      </xsl:stylesheet>
hope this fixes your issue
