User define function-remove leading zeros

Hi All,
i want java coding for mapping function rule "remove leading zeros" early.
kindly give me response as early as possible.
regards
Peera

Hi Mahaboob
Write UDF to parse data .
String dataVal="0230";
int parseVal = Integer.parseInt(dataVal);
System.out.println("parseVal is "+parseVal);
result.addValue(parseVal); or return parseVal;
Have a look at this thread...

Remove leading zeros using MDX function

Hello,
BO XI R3.1 SP2 FP2.5, SAP BW 7.0
This seems simple, but I cannot find a solution.
How do I remove leading zeros from a character field in a OLAP universe. Is there any MDX function?
I tried
<EXPRESSION>
Value([0MATERIAL].[LEVEL01].[[20MATERIAL]].[Value])
</EXPRESSION>
<EXPRESSION>
StrToValue([0MATERIAL].[LEVEL01].[[20MATERIAL]].[Value])
</EXPRESSION>
I can remove the leading zeros in Webi, but we require it for ad-hoc reporting? Is there a way to do this in the universe?
Thanks,
Nikhil

Hi,
SAP BW MDX only allows calcuated expressions that return numeric values: this is one if the main SAP MDX limitations.
By the way there is the abilitiy to return string only for those expressions:
[Dimension].currentmember.name
[Dimension].currentmember.uniquename
So you can do this:
<EXPRESSION>
(right([0MATERIAL].currentmember.name, 4))
</EXPRESSION>
<EXPRESSION>
(right([0MATERIAL].currentmember.uniquename, 4))
</EXPRESSION>
<EXPRESSION>
(left([0MATERIAL].currentmember.name, 3))
</EXPRESSION>
<EXPRESSION>
(left([0MATERIAL].currentmember.uniquename, 3))
</EXPRESSION>
Otherwise you can use WebI formulas as described in the thread.

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.

Abhishek.

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

Determine Element maxLenght in User-Defined Function

Hi,
I have the problem, that I have to fill up several fields with leading 0. I wrote a User-Defined Function for this. But the function doesn't know how long this element is, so I have to give the function the length of the element.
Is it possible to determine the length of the current element in an extended User-Defined Function
Yours
Thomas

Hi,
>use a simple user defined function with the desired

That function will only give me the actual lenght of the input element, what I need is the max lenght of the target element...
>You can also use the built-in FormatNumber function to
>insert leading 0s.
How can I use this function to add leading zeros?
"'000'#" ? But there I have to do this for every element
>I think an easy solution for this is, just have a

Well I have this function. But I am looking for way to the safe the second argument ;o)
Thank you all for your help

Add and remove leading zeroes

Hi all,
       Iam having a requirement where in a enduser enters the vendor number and after pressing enter key it should display the vendor num along with vendor name concatenated in the same field. But the end user is provided the facility that he may not enter the exact vendor number ( I mean if vendor number is for example 0000055, the enduser may enter simply 55). The system should convert it with leading zeroes internally. And in display it should display removing leading zeroes.
like     input: 55              output : 55 Vendor_Name
my approach
iam using conversion_exit_alpha_input    for adding leading zeroes       before select query ( to fetch the vendor name for vendor number the user supplies)
before displaying the output after concatenation,
iam using conversion_exit_alpha_output.
after execution,
it is asking the exact vendor number . But in the output, it is giving the vendor number along with vendor name by removing leading zeroes ( as expected).
how to make the system accept the number without leading zeroes. please suggest me.
tthanking you in advance
regards
Bikash

Hi Bikash,
Since you have to display the Vendor number concatenated along with the Vendor Name, why do you need to use the Alpha Exit Function Module. As you have the Vendor number without the zeros in the input field, you can store it in a temporary variable and then once the Vendor name is available you can concatenate it along with the number in the same field.
If you need a code snippet, you can provide the Technical details of the fields of input. We can use the implicit ABAP    type casting feature to get the Vendor Number without any leading zeros.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Samantak.

Error while using user defined function in reports

Hi,
When I use the below user defined function in oracle reports I got the wrong number of arguments error
select test_function(id,a_number,v_date-14,b_number) from dual;
If I remove -14 from the argument it works. But iIneed to subtract 14 days from the date.
Thanks for your help.

select test_function(id,a_number,v_date-14,b_number) from dual;
you have to give the command like this to_date(v_date,'dd-mon-yyyy')-14
because the v_Date you choose in the parameter form is not having the corrent date format
the format dd-mon-yyyy is the format in which v_date is passed by the user.

User-Defined Function and Context Manipulation

Hi Mapping Gurus, I need your help.
I have a user-defined function and one of my input parameter (c) is in a loop (EDI segment). So one, if I execute my function I get:
Exception:[java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0]
If I change the context or use the remove context node function its working but its always taking the first row in consideration since I'm using c[0] . Here is the logic:
String WHERE_CLAUSE = "A"" = ""'"b[0]"'"" and B = ""'"c[0]"'";
So since c is an array [], I have tried different logic to get to the right row.
1- I tried using another parameter (e) to pass a counter or an index to my function. So each time it's looping, it's passing a new value to the function but Im still getting the first row and Im not to sure why?
int G = Integer.parseInt(e[0]); // e[] = My counter field
String WHERE_CLAUSE = "A"" = ""'"b[0]"'"" and B = ""'"c[G]"'";
2- I tried using a parameter stored in the container:
String Num;
Num = (String)getParameter(counter);
if (Num == null) G = 0;
else
G = Integer.parseInt(Num);
G = G + 1;
String WHERE_CLAUSE = "A"" = ""'"b[0]"'"" and B = ""'"c[G]"'";
Num = "" + G;
setParameter(e[0], Num);
and Im still getting the first one, look like its using a different container each time its looping so the Value is always the same?
4- I created a new user-defined function with the container logic, then its working but Im back to the same problem in my main function, its only looking at e[0] for my counter all the time.
5- I tried using the Seeburger Java Variables and guess what in the main fonction, as new UDF,... and guess what, same result!
So anybody out there that was able to get UDF's working into a multiple context scenario?
Am I missing something?
I will reward points and beer for any help!

This is one of the text with passing a counter to the function to try to go to the right row in the array since I'm doing a remove context and I'm getting all the d_234's:
public void ReadTable(String[] a,String[] b,String[] c,String[] d,String[] e,ResultList result,Container container){
int G = Integer.parseInt(e[0]); // My counter
String var;
String DBTABLE = a[0];
String lookUpField = d[0];
String WHERE_CLAUSE = "A"" = ""'"b[0]"'"" and B = ""'"c[G]"'";
Now this one was with the internal container logic:
int G;
String DBTABLE = a[0];
String lookUpField = d[0];
String Num;
Num = (String)getParameter(e[0]);
if (Num == null) G = 0;
else
G = Integer.parseInt(Num);
G = G + 1;
Num = "" + G;
setParameter(e[0], Num);
String WHERE_CLAUSE = "A"" = ""'"b[0]"'"" and B = ""'"c[G]"'";
And now with the Seeburger Variables:
int G;
try {
VariableBean be=VariableFactory.getVariableInstance("");
G = Integer.parseInt(String.valueOf(be.getStringVariable("yves")));
} catch (Exception f) {
throw new RuntimeException(f);
String DBTABLE = a[0];
String lookUpField = d[0];
String WHERE_CLAUSE = "A"" = ""'"b[0]"'"" and B = ""'"c[G]"'";
try {
G = G + 1;
Num = "" + G;
VariableBean be=VariableFactory.getVariableInstance("");
be.setStringVariable("yves",Num);
catch (Exception f) {
throw new RuntimeException(f);
All 3 logics were returning always the first row or a counter of 1 if the logic is in the main ReadTable function.

User defined function to find difference between dates

format of dtActivityStartDate/dtActivityFinishDate: 2010-09-17 14:50:51.150
usdFuncTimeCalc (vcActivityName,dtActivityStartDate, dtActivityFinishDate) -- user defined function
i need to calculate time elapsed for that type of activity following are the rules:
(If Process Request is the activity)
Working Days: Monday through Saturday
Hours of Operation: 9AM – 5PM
only working hours of day need to the counted like for example if it is sep 15 11 Am is dtActivityStartDate & Sep 17 is dtActivityFinishDate is 10 Am. then time elapsed is 11am to 5pm on sep 15 , 9 to 5 on sep 16 & 9 to 10 on sep 17 so total should be
6+ 8 + 1 = 15 hours + minutes.
format of date time: 2010-09-17 14:50:51.150
vcActivityName = Process Request
Don't worry about process request...

I hv modified the code to make it more generic inorder to suit any timings (customizable) from Monday - Saturday.
declare
-- ** b u s i n e s s _ h o u r s **
-- business_hours returns the number of work houts (9 am through 5 pm,
-- Monday through Saturday) between in_start_dt and in_end_dt.
-- If in_start_dt > in_end_dt, the results will be <= 0.
-- Holidays are not considered.
in_start_dt DATE := to_date('15-SEP-2010 11:00:00','DD-MON-RRRR HH24:MI:SS');
in_end_dt   DATE := to_date('17-SEP-2010 10:00:00','DD-MON-RRRR HH24:MI:SS');
d          NUMBER; -- Hours of either start_dt or end_dt after midnight
end_dt     DATE := GREATEST(in_start_dt, in_end_dt); -- In case dates were in wrong order
return_val NUMBER; -- Total number of working hours
start_dt   DATE := LEAST(in_start_dt, in_end_dt); -- In case dates were in wrong order
start_time number := 9;
end_time   number := 17;
BEGIN

END IF;
dbms_output.put_line('');
dbms_output.put_line('Return_Val_4 : '||return_val);
END;Plz note the following points of the code :
1) You'll need to convert it a function, I just made it a declare..begin..end; block.
2) I hv used the same timings for start & end as you hv mentioned.
3) The 2 variables "start_time" and "end_time" take the opening & closing business hours respectively in a 24 hour format.
4) You might want to remove the DBMS_OUTPUT ... stmts which I had added for debugging.
It was an interesting code block to analyze ... :-)

XmltoQuery removing leading zero

Hi,
I have a function that takes in a raw xml and covert to query. The problem is any leading zeroes are gone. For example, 000123 will become 123. Is there any way or function in CF that will stop from removing leading zeroes?
Thanks,

Oh, sorry. It's not the XML to Query problem but it's the cfquery problem. When I cfdump the data, it shows 000123, but when I use <cfquery> to insert the data into a dabase, it strips the leading zeroes and in the db table it shows only 123. Is there a function or something to prevent this?
<cfoutput query="get_xml_data">
<cfquery name="test" datasource="db">
INSERT INTO table (id, name)
VALUES (#get_xml_data.id#, #get_xml_data.name#)
</cfquery>
</cfoutput>

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

To remove leading zeros

hi,
how to remove leading zeros. can anyone suggest

Hi ,
U can either use this function module also
CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT
or
SHIFT <yourField> LEFT DELETING LEADING '0'
or
try NO-ZERO option of WRITE statement
or
Another way is to create another variable of type I and assign the value into it
example:
DATA: L_NUMC(08) TYPE N.
DATA: L_INT TYPE I.
L_NUMC = '00000018'.
L_INT = L_NUMC.
Result will be = 18.
Hope this helps
