Leading Zeros in the Numeric Field

I am working with accounting numbers that may start with zero (0). After this information is inputted and you tab or hit return the leading zero is removed and goes to the first numberic digit. How can I make the leading zero display?
Thanks,

Change the display format to show all numbers ('9,999,999.99')and not to supress the leading zero (z,zzz,zzz,zz9.99').
More information about the display format is contained in the 'Scripting Reference' under LiveCycle Designer's 'Help' menu option.

Displaying no default zeroes for the numeric field in the table display.

hi folks,
I am binding a table in the context which has some numeric fields. I'm displaying the same table which has some records for editing purpose. But the problem is that the numeric field column is being displayed with zeros if it doesnot have any value in it. Can u explain how to disable the zeroes by not displaying them by defualt when there is no value for the numeric field.
regards,
Ramu

set the format of the context attribute TEST is the context attribute name
data: lr_info type ref to if_wd_context_node_info.
data: ls_prop type WDY_ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT_PROP.
lr_info = wd_context->get_node_info( ).
ls_prop = lr_info->GET_ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT_PROPS( name = 'TEST' ).
LS_PROP-NULL_AS_BLANK = 'X'.
lr_info->sET_ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT_PROPS( name = 'TEST'
FORMAT_PROPERTIES = ls_prop ).

Need to show leading zeros in the number field when printed from RDF

We have a requirement to show leading zeros in the rdf output.
We cannot use a format mask to achieve the same as the length of the field is not fixed.
for ex if we have 0.68 then the same is printed in RDF as .68
we cannot use a format mask as the length of the field is not fixed.
we need to
Kindly suggest if any solution exists for the same.

the numbers after the decima can be anything..
it can range between 2 to 10 or more...
as told by you if we put the format as to_char(.68,'90.99') it shall give 0.68 but what for numbers like0.678,0.4567,0.765433 it will display only 2 digits after the decimal...
The requirement is to dispaly the number as it is ,only the zeroes before the decimal should stay intact..
we are not able to achieve this in rdf output..
if it is
0.678 then 0.678 shld be dispalyed
0.4567 then 0.4567
0.765433 then 0.765433
one format mask shld wrk for all the above..
we would not be changing the format mask for each number....

Leading zeroes in a Numeric Field, Don't want.

I have a Numeric Field set up to hold 9 numbers for a zip code using Display Pattern 999999999.
When I only put in 5 numbers I get leading zeroes.
I only want to display the numbers I put in.
Sometimes I will have zip code of 9 numbers and other times only 5.
What am i missing?
Thank you.

Thank you, it worked. I used the TextField and set up the Display Pattern of all z's.
This way I'm able to enter the hyphen and the last 4 digits of the zip and if there is no extra 4 digits then the 5 zip code will appear without zeros.
Thanks again.

Suppressing Leading Zeroes in the Query output

Hi,
I have selected a data field(0MATERIAL) as a free characteristics, It displays text and key and the key has leading zeroes.
In the infoobject 0MATERIAL, ALPHA conversion routine is not selected, I can't change and insert the ALPHA right now because it would end up with reloading a large volume of data in different targets. To avoid this or to reduce the impact, in the reverse way,
Could it be possible to suppress this leading zeroes at the query level? I was hoping that there would be a change that I could make at the query level, since it is 0Material and am looking at the point of minimal impact.
Thank You.

Hi Senthil,
create InfoObject ZMATERIAL like a copy of 0MATERIAL, delete all the attributes and insert ALPHA conversion.
Insert this ZMATERIAL like display attribute of 0MATERIAL. In InfoSource for 0MATERIAL map also ZMATERIAL with the same field that is feeding 0MATERIAL (MATNL). In your query insert 0MATERIAL and ZMATERIAL, and then hide 0MATERIAL (you need to insert also 0MATERIAL because ZMATERIAL is only in display), you will see only the values of ZMATERIAL, that is the material without the zeros in front.
You can also decide to transform ZMATERIAL like navigational attribute, but in this case you have to change all the structure where do you want ZMATERIAL, because you need to flag it like navigational in that specific structure.
Ciao.

How do I convert the ASCII character % which is 25h to a hex number. I've tried using the scan value VI but get a zero in the value field.

You can use String to Byte Array for this.

BAPI to remove leading zeros from the serial number

Hi All ,
plz can anybody suggest me the alternative BAPI for 'BAPI_SERVNOT_MODIFY_DATA ',whose function is to delete the leading zeros,from the serial number.
Thanks.

Perhaps instead of using a BAPI you can code it like this.
DATA:serial(10) TYPE n VALUE '0000340078',
pos TYPE i VALUE 1.
START-OF-SELECTION.
WHILE pos <= 10 AND serial+pos(1) = 0.
pos = pos + 1.
ENDWHILE.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '0' IN serial(pos) WITH space.
WRITE serial.

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
i know that i can use to_char(xxx,'format') in queries,
but i want to have the leading zero for the whole instance.
is that possible?
thx.

In cas you use SQL*Plus for your queries modify your login file

Hi,
You will have to write some code in F4 help BADI, please refer the sap note 1416952. And you can take help of following function module to remove leading zeros,
CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT.
If above thing doesn't help then you will have to create virtual key figure.

Need to add leading zeros to the field if field length is less than 6

Actually the field length is 16.
But for some manual entries it is comming as 4 chars.
so if field length is less than 6 then it should be replaced by leading zeros.

Hi Ravi,
Do it in 2 steps.
1. check the length of your entry by strlen function and get the length.
2. If the output is less than 6 call the FM CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT to get leading zero
