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 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 MATNR "at Database Level"

    Hi,
    When we create a material in MM01 , we can either create material as Internal Material No. or External Material No. (By Explicitly entering a material No.)
    Our requirement is that: When we create an Internal Material , there should NOT be any Leading Zeros in MATNR.
    and for External Material No.  , Leading Zeros Should be there.  (In Database)
    1) Now , we can create the No. Range for material in such a way that it will allow only AlphaNumeric entries for Internal Material , and Only Numeric Entries for External Material No.
    This should slove the Purpose.
    But According to the Client's requirement , Material No can be Numeric OR Alphanumeric for Internal As well as External Material No.
    2) We can Add or Remove leading zeros from MATNR at application level.  i.e.  we can find some BADI / Enhancement where we will Use the Conversion FM (CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT or  CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT) and remove Leading Zeros from MATNR. But these changes will NOT reflect at Database Level , Because in MATNR Domain , there is a conversion Routine  , That will Add Leading Zeros in MATNR While saving in the Database.
    3) While Displaying the Material In SE11 , we can also set the "Display Format" as With leading Zeros OR Without Leading Zeros.
    But we dont want to Just "Display" material with OR Without Leading Zeros.  we want to actually create materials in that way.
    What can we do , so that at Database Level our changes are Reflected.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Anand Gore

    That will Add Leading Zeros in MATNR While saving in the Database.
    That is because you have it configured that way.  You can configure the storage as you desire.  The default is the behavior you are describing.  You, or your functional analyst, need to review the documentation on the MM config settings for material master number storage.
    Never use CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT for material conversion.  Also keep in mind that the MATN1 functions have their own BADI for extended formatting...

  • How to remove leading zeros from a string

    Hi,
    I have a situation here where i need to remove the leading  zeros from the incoming data.
    i.e if 0009 then it should be taken as 9

  • Remove leading Zeros from the mapped context node(Table)

    HI,
    I have he following requirement:
    In the Leave approval application , in the Approver worklist we have the coloumn to display the resuqester's Perner.
    The perner starts with leading zeros. We have to remove these leading zeros.
    I have refer the following threads:
    Removing leading zeros in a column
    How to remove leading zeroes of string
    and wiki document:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/java/remove%252bleading%252band%252btrailing%252bzeros%252bfrom%252ba%252bstring
    but I am not able to create the calculated attribute in the Mapped Node( NWDS is not allowing indicating it is not allowed for mapped nodes.)
    Any pointer how I can remove leading Zeros from existing column?
    If I create the calculated attribute outside the mapped node then it is taking only the first value of the mapped node.
    Please note we do not want to modify the RFC.

    Hi,
    Thanks for inputs,
    Now I created a test application where the original structure is as follows in the View Controller:
    1) Context -> Z_Portal_Test_Input (mapped Node/folder) -> IT_Tab_Input(mapped Node/folder) -> Eid(Mapped attribute)
    note: this attribute Eid has the values (01, 02,03,04,05)
    2)Context -> Z_Portal_Test_Input (mapped Node/folder) -> Output(mapped Node/folder) ->IT_Tab_Input(mapped Node/folder) -> Eid(Mapped attribute)
    Now as per your suggestion I created another node like this
    Context -> Z_Portal_Test_Input (mapped Node/folder) ->testnode(value node) ->testValue(value attribute)
    testnode cardinality is 1..1 and singlton = false
    In the Layout
    The tablecell editor  of one coloumn is mapped to text     Z_Portal_Test_Input.testnode.testvalue
    It is expected that this will show the values like(1,2,3,4,5) but it is showing value(1,1,1,1,1)
    The code of get method is:
      public java.lang.String getTestnodeTestvalue(IPrivateTestpernerView.ITestnodeElement element)
        //@@begin getTestnodeTestvalue(IPrivateTestpernerView.ITestnodeElement)
          String  msg =wdContext.nodeZ_Portal_Test_Input().nodeOutput().nodeIt_Itab().currentIt_ItabElement().getEid();
            return removeLeadingZeroes(msg);
        //@@end
    the functon removeLeadingZeroes(msg) is implemented as per the wiki link.

  • Removing Leading zeros from query output.

    Hello Experts,
    Is it possible to remove leading zeros from the query output for a particular column?
    I have a characteristics 'Reference Document' which has values like '000001386'. The users just need '1386' to be displayed and have asked us to remove the leading zeros.
    Is there something that can be done for this at a query level? I can't modify the underlying InfoProvider because this requirement is just for one set of users, the other users need the document nmber in the original format.
    Thanks
    Arvind

    Hi,
    you can use ALPHA conversion option in the definition of that particular characteristic.
    Try this code  in a routine.,in query designer;
    data a(9) value '000001386'.
    SHIFT a LEFT DELETING LEADING '0'.
    write:/ a.
    Output will be : 1386
    Or use this method also
    data a(9) value '000001386'.
    Call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
    Exporting
    input = a
    Importing
    output = a.
    write a.
    output:
    1386

  • Remove leading zeros from a string

    Hi,
    I have a string with some numeric value.
    e.g.
    String a = 54890001
    I want to make it 10 digits long by padding zeros at the begining
    Now a = 0054890001 ( this is for display purpose ) I know how to do it.
    Now How can strip these leading zeros from this number to get back the actual number. The user sees this 10 digit number and he can change it to something like 0067490001. Now I want to strip these leading zeros.
    and i shd get 67490001.
    In other words, how to strip leading zeros from a string ?
    Thanks for help
    Vinod

    I would try two things: First, just try a straightforward parsing of your String using the Integer.parseInt() method. This is only my first suggestion because the number could be interpreted as octals; only testing will really tell. Second, try a method like this:
    public static String removeLeadingZeros(String str) {
        if (str == null) {
            return null;
        char[] chars = str.toCharArray();
        int index = 0;
        for (; index < str.length; index++) {
            if (chars[index] != '0') {
                break;
        return (index == 0) ? str : str.substring(index);
    }Shaun

    Hi Pradeep,
      Please go through this wiki. [https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/java/remove%252bleading%252band%252btrailing%252bzeros%252bfrom%252ba%252bstring]
    It explains how to remove zeros from strings.
    extract from the wiki. This is an efficient way.
    public java.lang.String removeLeadingZeros( java.lang.String str ){
         if (str == null){
               return null;
          char[] chars = str.toCharArray();
          int index = 0;
          for (; index < str.length();index++){
               if (chars[index] != '0'){
                    break;
         return (index == 0) ? str :str.substring(index);
    If you want to show this string in a table instead of the ones with zeros you can create a calculated attribute  of type string on the same node and in the getter method read the string with zeros using getAttributeValue() api and pass the string to the above method and return that string value.
    You can also have another approach if you will only have numbers in your string. Have a calculated attribute of type int. In the getter method read the String using getAttributeValue() api and then convert it to an int using Integer.parseInt(String) and return the int value.
