LEADING ZERO IN MONTH

Hi,
is there any possibility of adding leading zero for month column in query output without writing ABAP CODE.
SDay for March ,instead of 3 i need 03 in qury o/p.
Thanks,
shaw

Hi,
is it possible that u mean to eleminate the leading "zero" of a KF text variable?
If yes, u can do this with the following steps:
1. Go to query designer -> select your text variable
2. Edit variable -> replacement path
3. Section Offset settings-> edit offset start and offset lenght
I dont know how 0Month is displayed, but with these two u can define at which point u the offset starts and how many text digits u want to display.
For ex. 0FISCPER is displayed 0012008 normally, if u set offset start as 2 and offset lenght as 5 the result is 12008
Hope it helps
Regards

Leading zeros for Month and Day in filename.

Hello,
I am in Jdev 10.1.3.3.0
One of my requirement is to have a file name concatenated with current month and day (example: <filename><02><23>).
Used the xpath as following and returns an output as *'filename223'*:
concat('filename',xp20:month-from-dateTime(ora:getCurrentDate()),xp20:day-from-dateTime(ora:getCurrentDate()),'.txt')
what changes I need to make in my Xpath to get the file name as *'filename0223'*
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Rakesh

I was googling on the date format used in BPEL to achieve various format types. Specially I was searching for my requirement : <filename><current month with leading zeros if month is single digit><current day with leading zeros if day is single digit>(ie. if the month is february and day is 23rd, then my filename should be *<filename><02><23>*).
I found a link which helped solving my problem :
http://plane.javaeye.com/blog/161316
I changed my Xpath to :
concat('filename',xp20:format-dateTime(ora:getCurrentDate(),'[M01][D01]'),'.txt')
And I got my expected result : *'filename0223.txt'*

Trouble adding leading zeros to numbers in PowerShell script

I am new to PowerShell scripting (so have mercy on me please!), and I'm trying to write a script that takes simplified, menu-based user input to create a folder on the network named based on a month number and the year. The month must be expressed as a two-digit
number, but I'm trying to make it simple enough that the user only needs to input a one-digit number (for the first nine months of the year) and have the script add the leading zero (for example, if a user inputs the number "2" for February, the
script will output "02").
Here is a portion of my script:
# Get current year
$year = Get-Date -Format yyyy
# Provide menu of months for user to choose from
Write-Host "Choose the name of the month for the folder you want to create."
Write-Host "1. January"
Write-Host "2. February"
Write-Host "3. March"
Write-Host "4. April"
Write-Host "5. May"
Write-Host "6. June"
Write-Host "7. July"
Write-Host "8. August"
Write-Host "9. September"
Write-Host "10. October"
Write-Host "11. November"
Write-Host "12. December"
Write-Host " "
Do {
$mNum = Read-Host "Select the number of the month (1 - 12): "
# Convert the menu item to the month name
switch ($mNum)
1 {$month = "January"}
2 {$month = "February"}
3 {$month = "March"}
4 {$month = "April"}
5 {$month = "May"}
6 {$month = "June"}
7 {$month = "July"}
8 {$month = "August"}
9 {$month = "September"}
10 {$month = "October"}
11 {$month = "November"}
12 {$month = "December"}
default {"Invalid entry. Please select a number from 1 - 12 (without the trailing period)."}
# Validate user input. Current code is cumbersome; try to find more elegant method.
While ($mNum -ne 1 -and $mNum -ne 2 -and $mNum -ne 3 -and $mNum -ne 4 -and $mNum -ne 5 -and `
$mNum -ne 6 -and $mNum -ne 7 -and $mNum -ne 8 -and $mNum -ne 9 -and $mNum -ne 10 -and `
$mNum -ne 11 -and $mNum -ne 12)
# Add leading zeros to month number
$fNum = "{0:D2}" -f $mNum
Write-Host $fNum
When I run it, I don't get the leading zero. However, when I create a very basic script, it seems to work:
$mNum = 3
$fNum = "{0:D2}" -f $mNum
Write-Host $fNum
Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong?
Also, if anyone has a suggestion on how to better validate the user input (making sure they enter a number between 1 and 12), I would appreciate that as well.

.NET formatting is a complicated subject
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/26etazsy(v=vs.110).aspx#FormatStrings
I'm not sure how all that documentation applies when you attempt to format a value that is already a string.
In general, formatting is described as "Formatting is the process of converting an instance of a class,
structure, or enumeration value to its string representation". If it is already a string I'm not sure what to expect.
For example,
<# C: #> '3',3,'03',03,'003',003 | % { "{0:D2}" -f $_ }
3
03
03
03
003
03
<# C: #>

Leading zeroes substring query in SQL Server

Can Someone please help me in padding leading zeroes for the months in End date
Example: actual data is like 6222007
,11301998 in end date column the following query works fine for 11301998 and converts it as 19981130 which was correct.
But 6222007
fails because month has no leading zero and it converts it as 0076222 which is wrong.
How can i make it as 20070622 with the following code
select (case when replace (ltrim(rtrim(ltrim([end date]))), '|', '') in ('99999999','00000000') then NULL
else substring ([END DATE],5,4)+SUBSTRING([END DATE],1,2)+SUBSTRING([END DATE],3,2) end) as ConvEnd_date
from AdventureWorks.dbo.[AccountTable]

Something like:
declare @i int = 6222007
select @i%10000 year_number, @i/1000000 month_number, (@i/10000)%100 day_number
select DATEFROMPARTS(@i%10000,@i/1000000,(@i/10000)%100)

Grep query - optional character, leading zeros & shortening words

I have recently been taught (thanks to this forum) how to use Grep searches (wish I’d known about it years ago!). I still can’t get my head around some of the search strings - hoping someone can shed some light & explain what the components are doing so I can further utilise them?
I have dates for a travel brochure, given to me sometimes separated by commas without the date (2, 3, 4, 5) & I need to put each date into its own cell in a table with the month next to them (with no space & going across left to right) + with a leading zero for single digits (02Jan /t 03Jan /t 04Jan /t 05Jan).
How can I get it to add a leading zero for single digits & add the month to the last number that doesn’t have the comma (which I otherwise utilise in the search)? (The way I get it currently is 2Jan /t 3Jan /t 4Jan /t 5).
I can’t seem to work out the optional character command.
The other problem I have is that the months need to be shortened to just the first 3 digits & I’m not sure how to do that, either.
Any light shed would be appreciated!
Using current Indd on Mac.
Message was edited by: Alleyna Lenton I have just found (through searching IndesignSecrets) how to do the optional comma: (\d+),? -> $1Mar\t (although I'm not clear whether the '+' after '\d' represents more than 1 or any number of digits?) Just the other 2 probs I have - abbreviating words to first 3 characters & adding a zero to the front of single digits.

Very good -- GREP is a useful tool to master! If you can't work out the last few things, do let us know. Make sure to list a couple of Before-After examples.
The + after \d is indeed for "1 or more", that is, at least one and then as much as possible (I don't think there is a realistic upper limit). Contrast with * which is "zero or more" and ? for "none or exactly 1".
Cutting off month names after the first 3 characters was asked not too long ago, but I cannot recall what the offered solution was. Try something like this:
(?<=\bJan)uary
(replace with nothing). The (?<=xxx) is a positive lookbehind: it will search the text "uary" and only match it if preceded by "Jan". By writing out all months in one long string, you can change all of them:
(?<=\bJan)uary|(?<=\bFeb)ruary|(?<=\bMar)ch|(?<=\bApr)il
... etc., etc., where the vertical bar is an OR operator. (It's a bit long written in full, but remember you only have to write this GREP once and then you can save 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
William Henshall

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.

Leading Zeros of Consumption in historical time series are not considered

We are using VM MRP Type and weighted average model to calculate forecast value using historical consumption values. I have 36 historical periods(months) but have consumption incurred only in last period i-e "1". I have choosen a weighted group 01 (20% for 1-12 month, 30% for 13-24 month, 50% for 25-36 month). Using these setting it should calculate the basic value as 1*0.5/12 = .042 but it gives "1" as basic value not considering leading zero consumption value in historical time series. If i put a value in first period it calculates correctly and considers the leading zero.
We have implemented note 1113276, 1145764 & 1113277 and have chosen CV_OPTION="X" in the interface as per theses notes instructions but still while executing the forecast it is not considering the leading zeros.
We are using ECC 6.0 MM with 602 support pack.
Need urgent help in this regard.

Have you followed the steps as per SAP Note 1113276 , Just check below link with same subject discussed check it helps you,

Leading zero on char field

I have what would be a simple thing. A need to have leading zero retained on a variable..that holds a month.
I have a field that is 20090501 and I want to make it 20090401... that is take 1 month off
But problem is the calculation does not give leading zeros
... here is very cut down version of what I am doing
DATA: lv_Period(8) type c,
      lv_mm(2) type c.
lv_mm = '05'.
lv_mm = lv_mm - 1.   "becomes 4.    " how do I make it "04".
concatenate '2009' lv_mm '01' into lv_Period.    " this becomes 2009401 and not 20090401

DATA: lv_Period(8) type c,
lv_mm(2) type c.
lv_mm = '05'.
lv_mm = lv_mm - 1. "becomes 4. " how do I make it "04".
if lv_mm is LT '10'.
concatenate '2009' '0' lv_mm '01' into lv_Period.
else.
concatenate '2009' lv_mm '01' into lv_Period. " this becomes 2009401 and not 20090401

Suppressing Leading Zero in Date

We are currently having a problem when running a query in BEX. The date which displays as MM/DD/YYYY is suddenly displaying with the leading zero in the month and day supressed, for example "3/5/2006" instead of "03/05/2006". This is interfering with macros in our workbook. We recently implemented support packs but don't know if this is related. Does anyone know how to fix this? When running the same query from the Query Designer the dates display correctly, without the leading zeros suppressed.

Hi adadms,
Plz check ur system settings.
Go to control panel : regional options-Date
check with short date format.
it may be d/m/yy.
Thanks,

Keeping leading zero of an integer

Wondering if anyone can help me solve this small problem.
Here's what I had:
for(int i=01; i<13; i++) {
 String month = "2003" + i;
 System.out.println(month);
}This gives me the following output:
20031
20032
20033
20034
20035
20036
20037
20038
20039
200310
200311
200312
However, I want the output to be:
200301
200302
200303
200304
200305
200306
200307
200308
200309
200310
200311
200312
Then I tried this:
String year = "2003";
String month = new String()
for(int i=01; i<13; i++) {
 if(i<10)
 month = year+"0"+i;
 else
 month = year+i;
 System.out.println(month);
}The code above gives me the results I want. However, I'm thinking that there has to be a better way to do this. Is there anyway to increment the variable i and kept it two digits? I mean keeping the leading zero until it gets to the number 10? Any ideas?

the previous poster is right. It's also a little odd how you have things setup, in that you're expressing dates with an unusual approach (most people would use Date or Calendar), but, if you want to keep like you have it, I think this might be the easiest solution:
int date = 200300;
for (int i = 1; i < 13; i++ ) {
System.out.println(date + i);
}

Adding leading zeros in abap objects.

Can anyone explain me
1. How to add leading zeros to a field in abap objects.
For eg:
data: dmb(6) type c value '123456',
actually the output value of c should have leading zeros added to it for length 16.
i.e '0000000000123456' . If the length of dmb is less than 16 then leading zeros should be added to that value to make it 16 as length.
Please tell me how to do it in ABAP Objects.

Hi Camila
Try to use the statement
DATA: ALPHABET(15) VALUE ' ABCDEFGHIJ',
 M1(4) VALUE 'ABCD',
 M2(6) VALUE 'BJJCA '.
SHIFT ALPHABET LEFT DELETING LEADING M1.
The field
ALPHABET
remains unchanged.
SHIFT ALPHABET LEFT DELETING LEADING SPACE.
The field ALPHABET now has the following contents:
'ABCDEFGHIJ '.
SHIFT ALPHABET RIGHT DELETING TRAILING M2.
ALPHABET now has the following contents:
' ABCDEFGHI'.
IN CHARACTER MODE
Effect
This is the default setting (see above), and the addition is therefore optional.
Note
Performance:
For performance reasons, you should avoid using SHIFT in WHILE loops.
The runtime required to shift a field with length 10 by one character to the right or left requires about 5 msn (standardized microseconds). A cyclical shift requires around 7 msn. The runtime for the ...
LEFT DELETING LEADING
... variant is around 3.5 msn, for ...
RIGHT DELETING TRAILING
... around 4.5 msn.

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.

IR - Column with leading Zeros issue

Hello,
I've got an IR report which includes as "default report settings" 1 column with leading 0s. In order to export to Excel that column as text rather than as a numeric I followed a workaround proposed before in this forum (excel copy drops leading zeros
In essence this workaround is to create an identifical column but in "excel text format" and display the columns depending on the request value: INSTR(NVL(:REQUEST,'YABBADABBADO'),'CSV') <> 0 for example.
This works just fine for the default report.
The problem arise when a user creates his own customise report that includes the mentioned column and saves it as a named report. Here, when the results are exported to excel the "excel" column does not appear.
In fact, just hiding one of the displayed columns produces the same undesired result.
I would appreciate any comments or suggestions.
Many thanks
Edited by: Javier Gil on Jul 20, 2010 7:52 AM

I have found a better method. In your IR query:
SELECT LPAD(v.vendor, 7, ' ') vendor,
/*Just LPAD to a length of the column defined in the database table or to 7, whichever is greater. */
FROM v, r
WHERE v.VENDOR = r.VENDOR
AND date_rcv <= to_date(:P150_CUTOFF,'yyyy/mm/dd')
AND inv_nbr = ' '
AND to_stores <> 'T'
AND (V.VENDOR = RPAD(:P150_VENDOR,10,' ') OR :P150_VENDOR = 'ALL')
When you download to Excel by Download/XLS (Request=XLS), it preserves the leading zeros.
In the case of dates, you should LPAD 10 minimum in this format.
LPAD(to_char(date_rcv,'MM/DD/YY'), 10, ' ') date_rcv,
I haven’t tried it yet but I think in the case of ‘MM/DD/YYYY’, you should LPAD 12 minimum in this format.
LPAD(to_char(date_rcv,'MM/DD/YYYY'), 12, ' ') date_rcv,
Drawbacks of this method:
Since the string has leading white spaces, you cannot use the filter for the ‘=’ comparison operator. Even filtering using leading white spaces will not return anything. You must use the LIKE and NOT LIKE operator instead.
Advantages of this method over the original one I posted yesterday:
1) You do not have to create another column for download, just one column will suffice.
2) Even though the query has leading white spaces, they will not display in the IR region.

IR truncating leading zeros in my popup window report

Hello,
I am using IR_columnname, for one of the columns in my report which is a popup window report.
My problem is that IR_column search filter in my popup window is truncating the leading zeros.
I am getting the value but it is truncating the leading zeros.
like say if the deptno is something like 020 or 0020 in the parent window.
the IR_columnname value is taking '20' (its truncating leading zeros) with this filter its not dispalying the result in my popup window.
can anyone help me out with this.
thanks.

How are you passing values to the IR filter? There could be a possibility that you source logic is truncating the leading zeros.
Thanks,
Manish

How do I add leading zero(s) to exported files' names?

I'm using Lightroom 1.4 on an iMac, with OS X 10.4. When I export a batch of photos, they get numbered automatically. For example, if they're pictures of my dog, I'll specify "Dog" as the name to be used and 1 as the starting number. Lightroom will then export them as "Dog-1.tif" and "Dog-2.tif" and so on.
The problem is that when I then load these files into another application, it thinks that "Dog -1.tif" should be followed by "Dog-11.tif," then "Dog-12.tif," and so on to "Dog-19.tif" and then "Dog-2.tif," "Dog-20.tif," "Dog-21.tif," etc.
One solution to this would be to have them numbered as 01, 02, 03. . . 09, 10, 11, etc. Rather than add those leading zeros to the file names manually, I'd like to have Lightroom put them in when it exports the files, but I can't figure out how to do that. I've tried entering 01 as the starting number in the "Export" dialogue box, but that doesn't do the trick.
Can anybody tell me how to get Lightroom to add a leading zero (or zeros, when I export more than 99 files at a time) to the file names?

>What if I just wanted to name the images 0001, 0002, 0003, etc? Can't seem to figure that out.
In the Filename Template Editor, simply insert the [Sequence # (0001)] token as the only entry in the template field.
