Remove leading zeros coming from Active Directory

Greetings all. Our sapusername is stored in Active Directory with leading zeros. Is there a way to remove these zeros in the portal so SSO will work? I have had my AD team manually remove the zeros in front of my sapusername, so I'm sure that's the issue.
Alternately, is there a setting in R3 that would allow leading zeros?

Hi,
I've seen the problem before and I think you only have two choices (haven't looked into if R3 can accept leading zeros)
1. Since you are allready retrieving sapusernames from an R3 change that mapping to remove leading zeros and possibly put it in a new attribute.
2. Create a JAAS login module which retrieves found username from the HeaderVariableLoginModule and trims leading zeros before putting the username back to shared state. This new LoginModule must be placed before the CreateTicketLoginModule.
Note it is not very trivial to create a JAAS login module but an excellent guide can be found here http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/46/3ce9402f3f8031e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

Link DN with information coming from active directory

I have setup a Unified CM and IM/presence server. The Unified CM server is connected to LDAP active directory to authenticate the users that login via the Cisco Jabber Windows client. I have configured CSFdevices for each user and created a DN which has the same number as the normal phone line number. The users logging in to the cisco jabber client appears well as reachable in to the client for the other user that are logged in. However when I try to call them (via the number that comes from active directory) this doesn't work. (busy number) When I type the number that I have configured as a DN I succeed to make a connection with a different user.
Any idea how to link the DN from the CSF softphone with the information that comes from Active directory.
Any help would be appreciated.

Forget about application dial rules mate, if you do desk phone control using Jabber, and you dial a person using that person's telephone attribute in AD, just put a translation pattern in place. That should work.
that way you can also use DNA for troubleshooting purposes.
Alternatively, you can populate the ipphone in AD and populate that with the extension that is configured on the phone/CSF device and alter the LDAP atrribute mappings in Presence (applications>cisco jabber>jabber settings). but this will not solve your problem if you use like iphones, ipads .

Remove domain controller 2008 from active directory

Hi,
I have 2 DC 2008R2 & i have 2 ts one of them don't get the GPO i do everything i found that my 2 dc don't replicate good i can see the different on sysvol folder.
After that i explain my self, My question if i remove the dc (its not the fsmo dc its the second), and after removing i add this dc ?
I need to check some checks before ?
After removing i need to delete from the dns record
?After Adding the same dc to the domain i need to check something ?
Thanks
Zahi

Hi,
>i want to remove my dc and replace him with new dc.
You can add a new DC to a domain, and then remove the DC that you want to remove.
To add a DC to a domain, after add server to a domain, we can run dcpromo to install AD.
After server 2012, Adprep.exe commands run automatically as needed as part of the AD DS installation process.
For more detailed information about Adprep.exe, you can refer to the following link:

Removing Exchange 2007 from SBS 2008 (In an Exchange 2010 Coexistance Scenario) - In order to remove 2007 Mailbox Objects from Active Directory and remove the SBS2008 server completely

I'm trying to remove Exchange 2007 from an SBS 2008 server
(Server 2008 Standard FE). My ultimate goal is to completely remove the SBS 2008 Server from the network environment.
We have an Exchange 2010 Coexistence Scenario and Mailboxes/Public Folders/etc have been moved over to the 2010 mail server, on Server 2008 R2.
I have moved all Shares, FSMO roles, DHCP, DNS, etc over to their respective servers. We have two full blown DC's in the environment.
I'm ready to remove Exchange 2007 from SBS 2008 and DCPROMO the server. I can NOT seem to find a TechNet article that shows me how
to proceed in this kind of scenario. I am trying to use the TechNet article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd728003(v=ws.10).aspx
This article references Disabling Mailboxes, Removing OAB, Removing Public Folder Databases, then uninstalling Exchange using the Setup Wizard.
When I go to Disable Mailboxes I get the following error:
Microsoft Exchange Error
Action 'Disable' could not be performed on object 'Username (edited)'.
Username (edited)
Failed
Error:
Object cannot be saved because its ExchangeVersion property is 0.10 (14.0.100.0), which is not supported by the current version 0.1 (8.0.535.0). You will need a later version of Exchange.
OK
I really don't see why I need to Disable Mailboxes, Remove OAB and Public Folder Databases since they have been moved to 2010. I just want
to remove Exchange 2007 and DCPROMO this server (actually I just want to remove any lingering Exchange AD Objects referring to the SBS 2008 Server, using the easiest and cleanest method possible).
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

Hi,
Based on your description, it seems that you are in a migration process (migrate SBS 2008 to Windows Server
2008 R2). Now, you want to remove Exchange Server and demote server. If anything I misunderstand, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
On current situation, please refer to following articles and check if can help you.

To remove leading zeroes and take directly from IDOC(Segment field) to file

Hi SapAll.
i have got a simple requirement in a idoc to file Interface.
here in a sender Idoc there will be one segment with one field,the requirement is to remove leading zeroes and take directly the data from this field and map to one of the field in reciever file structure.
i had used the formatnumber (under arithmatic functions)in PI 3.0 but now when iam using it in PI7.1 it was raising some jave exception error.
it would be preferable if any body can give me the solution without user defined functions.
regards.
Varma.

from your first post:
i had used the formatnumber (under arithmatic functions)in PI 3.0 but now when iam using it in PI7.1 it was raising some jave exception error.
use the same formatting that you used in 3.0 .... try with just a # in the FormatNum function.
Regards,
Abhishek.

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
Edited by: anandgore on May 18, 2011 3:47 PM

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 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.....

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

Hi,
Can anybody tell me any conversion routine while can remove leading zeros from a character value.
Eg :
input : asdfe
        output : 0000asdfe and vice versa
I tried with Alpha conversion routine but that is useful only with numeric values.
Please help.

Hi,
See the following program, and the same logic you can apply in Transfer Rules/Transformations. Take ABAPer help.
REPORT ZALPHA_INPUT.
DATA: ZI(18) TYPE C,
      ZO(12) TYPE C.
DATA: ZS(12) TYPE C,
      ZR(18) TYPE C.
      ZI = '000000099999889925'.
      ZS = '099999889925'.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
    EXPORTING
      INPUT         = ZI
   IMPORTING
     OUTPUT        = ZO.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
    EXPORTING
      INPUT         = ZS
   IMPORTING
     OUTPUT        = ZR .
Write:/   ZI.

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.
What wrong I am doing/ missing....

Removing an 1 way trust Active Directory Domain from SearchActiveDirectoryDomains

One of our AD domains is being retired. After configuration for both, we need to change to only point to one domain. Is running the following advisable to fix?
stsadm
-o setapppassword
-password ******
stsadm
-o setproperty
-pn peoplepicker-searchadforests
-pv "domain:***.**.*****.**.***,TDC\***********,**********"
-url http://url
iisreset
/noforce
Thank you,
Mark

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to remove an one way trust Active Directory Domain from SearchActiveDirectoryDomains.
People Picker will only query the forests or domains that you specify in the
peoplepicker-searchadforests property setting.
To specify the forests or domains to be queried together with the credentials, type the following command:
stsadm.exe -o setproperty -pn peoplepicker-searchadforests -pv
<Valid list of forests or domains, Login name, Password> -url
<Web application URL>

Best Way to Remove Server from Active Directory

I was wondering the best practice to remove a server from AD according to Microsoft.
Option 1 :
Login to server and take it off the domain and put it into a workgroup
Then login to AD and make sure it is removed
Confirm removal from DNS
Option 2 :
Login to Domain Server and manually remove
Confirm removal from DNS
Thanks
Also the servers are running Windows 2008 R2

So if its just a file server, I would just go with option 1 to ensure the cleanest removal from Active Directory?
What would happen if I just removed it from Active Directory after powering it down? Still a clean result? Or is it considered best practice to take the server off the domain from the server then power it down and then remove from Active Directory?
Please let me know and also if you want me to clarify.
I am not sure if I understood you correctly but if you just right click the computer object in Active Directory and delete it you have to manually delete the DNS records as well or wait for scavenging period to delete the outdated DNS records.
