Please help me in this regard
Thanks,
Lakshmi.

Hi,
Test the following Code.
Data: a(8) TYPE n.
a = '00000056'.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
EXPORTING
    input         = a
IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        = a
WRITE: a.
a = '56'.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
EXPORTING
    input         = a
IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        = a

Padded zeros which is removed need to be replaced by spaces

Hi Friends,
My requirement in XI is : Padded zeros which is removed need to be replaced by spaces.
for removing padded zeros I used the UDF:
int i = Integer.parseInt(a);
return (Integer.toString(i));
It is working fine.
Please help as how to go abt in coding : whatever zeros get taken off , need to be replaced with spaces.
Thanks in Advance,
Meghna.

Hi Raj,
According to the logic given by Henrique, its working. But the point to the noted is that :
The number of spaces need to be equal to the number of zeros removed, where it not happening in this case.for the below Ex when applied it returned ' 12345' instead of ' 12345'.
For ex. source field is '000012345' then the target field need to be ' 12345'.
the Type declared in the data type for the receiver field is integer with length 15.
Is it possible to move the field value to the right justified, so the the padded zeros code when applied will automatically load spaces.Becoz the code written for removing zeros contains String due to which it is left justified i think.
The code written for removing zeros is :
int i = Integer.parseInt(a);
return (Integer.toString(i));
please suggest in this regard.
Regards,
Meghna.

A query on removing additionally padded zeroes from the pernr.

Hi ,
How can i remove the padded zeroes from the pernr, Ex pernr is 8 chars and if pernr has 6 chars it has to remove appended 2 zeroes from the left and should only print the 6 chars with no appended zeroes
Thanks

Hi Khaleel,

Padding zeros

Hi friends,
I need a small help.
My requirement is like,I need to pad zeroes in front of a quantity value.
I am using CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT.But,it is going into dump,because
I am passing a quantity field as input.
Can any one suggest any function module,to pad zeroes to a quantity value or decimal value.
Points guaranteed,
Imran

hi masood,
first Convert that Quantity field value into Char type and then pass it to conversion routine..
ex:
data: var(length) type c.
var = quantity field.
and then pass it to conversion routine.

UDF for padding zeroes

Hi
I need a UDF Code for the following requirement ,which is used in various fields across a lot of mappings
Requirement is that if it is a fixed length file and the field length is 10 then whatever value thats coming should be right alligned and there shud be zeroes padded to the left of it
for e.g
field length is 10
input value os 3456
then the output should be 0000003456
I want to make it a generic function wher i can take the field length and the input value as inputs
Dev

Hi,
You can edit my function. What you can do is send the length as one input and then it should work. Add this code:
Create a value udf with two input arguments a and input. Then add this code:
Imports: java.*;
int len=input.length();
int b = Integer.parseInt(a);
for(int i=0; i<b-len;i++)
input="0"+input;
return input;
Here pass the total length of the field in first argument and then send the input value to teh second argument. Then it should work for you.

Filename manipulation to get padded zero

Hi All,
I am using a file adapter and used the file name as "source_target_fl_%yyyyMMdd%_%SEQ%.xml"
From file adapter wsdl:
<jca:operation
LogicalDirectory="OUT_DIR"
InteractionSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.file.outbound.FileInteractionSpec"
FileNamingConvention="source_target_fl_%yyyyMMdd%_%SEQ%.xml"
OpaqueSchema="false" >
</jca:operation>
Now is there any method that I can get the filename as source_target_fl_20090818_00001.xml , I mean I need to do left pad to the sequence, is this possible to do it in the wsdl itself.

Regarding zppending zeroes in ABAP.

Hi,
How can I code followng in ABAP ?
If the length of field (ZDCM-ZIPCODE) is less than 5 digits, then append zeros at beginning so that length becomes 5 digits.
Ex: If we have 45 then it should become    00045
      If we have 1 then it should become      00001
      If we have 3478 then it should become 03478
Regards,
Rajesh

Here is an easy way. Simple move it to a numeric with a length of 5 and then move it back to ZIPCODE.
data: n(5) type n.
n = ZDCM-ZIPCODE.
ZDCM-ZIPCODE = n.

Regarding Leading Zeros.

Hello Friends,
How can I remove leading zeros in an Internal Table Value. I am writing a BDC for User Defined Transaction. Here BDCDATA-Fval contains length of 132 chars. When I append a value to BDCDATA, it is appending as right justified. when we try to populate a value in to Screen field(CURRENCY FIELD), it is taking first 10 chars(from leftside) which are Zeros(leading zeros). for that, I would like to remove leading zeros for internal table BDCDATA. How can I do it?
Thanks & Regards
Sathish Kumar

Hi Satish,
To remove leading zeros and leading blanks
Please use FM
CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT Conversion exit ALPHA, external->internal
CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT Conversion exit ALPHA, internal->external
Hope this resolves your query.

IP Adresses - padding zeroes for ORDER BY

Hi!
I have a table with an IP address inside (type varchar2(50)). The data inside looks like 192.168.0.1. Now, my app should be able to ORDER BY this ip address. This means, when I do ORDER BY on this column without any changes, the output is wrong:
192.168.0.1
192.168.0.10
192.168.0.11
192.168.0.2
and so on.
Is there a way to temporarily pad the leading zeroes, e.g.
to 192.168.000.001?
Thanks in advance
André
PS: To all those who helped me with my large-table-speed-problem some months ago: The project has been dropped :-( Thanks again anyway.

Depending on how much use you make of IP addresses in your application, it might be worth defining IP_ADDRESS as a type, as then it could have its own MAP or ORDER function and you can simply ORDER BY the IP address column.
Here is a basic example using IPv4 n.n.n.n addresses. You could add IPv6, domain name, etc etc as necessary.
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE ip_address AS OBJECT

How to pad zeros at the left?

Hi All,
I have requirement where
Input is 1234
and Output should be :-0000001234(6 Zeros at left).
Please let me knw how to do it.
Thanks,
Suraj

hi Suraj,
If you are sure its should be always prefixed with 6 zeros then u can use above mentioned method.
But if you are not sure about the input string lenghth than below udf will help.
s = "000000".substring(s.length()) + s;
where s= input value which is 1234 in ur example given.
hope this solves your problem.
thanks and regards,

Payables: Cannot start a Payment Document number with Zero

Hi all,
I have a bit of an unusual situation. One of my users wants to issue cheques from a book where the serial starts with 0 (015698, 015699 etc). However, Oracle Payables automatically deletes the 0 at the top of the string and leaves only rest of the integers in the cheque number field. This creates a problem in printing the payment voucher since the voucher will show the paid cheque number without the zero at the front.
Any suggestions as to how i can overcome this?
Miranga

Hi Miranga,
Note 1361688.1, R12: Payables Check Number Not Accepting Leading0. Ex: 060078, discusses this issue with the note that:
"This is a normal behavior, There is no chance to have leading 0 in the check number, The check number in the AP_CHECKS_ALL table is a numeric field, so we can't have padded zeros."
For reconciliation, the leading check numbers are removed so matching can occur, assuming you have patch 12976660 applied.

Regarding Calling a Report Program

Hi Gurus,
1. I have an Requirement in which i need to call Program CATSSHOW.
 I need to Pass the Selection screen values from calling program by skipping the Selection screen of Called Program.
or
2. Can i call the Transaction CADO(which is T-CODE for CATSSHOW Program)
 by passing selection screen values from calling program to call program skipping selection screen.
I used a. SUBMIT catsshow
 WITH so_pers IN r_pernr
 WITH so_datum IN r_datum
 AND RETURN.
 which goes to the called program and does not pass the values to the ranges in called program.
a. SUBMIT catsshow VIA SELECTION-SCREEN
 WITH so_pers IN r_pernr
 WITH so_datum IN r_datum
 AND RETURN.
 which goes to the called program and pass the values to the ranges in called program and displays the selection screen. (which i needs to skip).
Please help regarding this.
Thanks and Regards
Sanath

SUBMIT catsshow
WITH so_pers IN r_pernr
WITH so_datum IN r_datum
AND RETURN.
this should work.. make sure r_pernr and r_datum are filled properly the option and sign fields...
MOVE wa_parameter-parva TO s_vkorg-low.
MOVE 'I' TO s_vkorg-sign.
MOVE 'EQ' TO s_vkorg-option. "<<<<< this varies
APPEND s_vkorg.
MOVE wa_parameter-parva TO s_vkorg-high.
MOVE 'I' TO s_vkorg-sign.
MOVE 'EQ' TO s_vkorg-option. "<<<<< this varies
APPEND s_vkorg.
look at the padded zeros or conversion exits available for the field...

Leading Zeros Supression

How Can I supress Leding zeroes into target Structure?. Iam getting 10 digits filled zeros left justified and my target systems doesn't need zeros. Is there Standard function in Mapping I can use?

Hi,
With th ehelp of Substring standard function you can achieve that, if you know the exact number or length.
Elese it is prefer to write a Java User Defined function to achieve the same.
Just check with FormatNum inbuilt functions.
This thread discusses about padding zeros, instead of this, you need to substring it..
