Why MATNRs leading zeros hv much Impact?

Hi Experts,
Just curious to know that, Why MATNR 's leading zeros do hv much impact on many functions, like data pulling, passing them in FM, display on reports/alv i.e. If I pass my_MATNR as 0000000000000018, data will b pulled, if I pass the same as 18, no result! both together same, right! - 0000000000000018 = 18! I mean, Wht is SAPs idea bhind it/MATNRs behaviour?
I dont think, this is the same case/issue with VBELN/EBELN/KUNNR/LIFNR etc!
thanq.

thanq,
Yes, I hv seen and understand the point.
But, pls. let me clarify that, for instance am loading up the MATMAS from flat file via LSMW, so my_matnr_1_in_flat_file = 18, my_matnr_2_in_flat_file = AB, my_matnr_3_in_flat_file = 00000000000018, so, How they r stored/posted in data base?
1)my_matnr_1_in_flat_file = 18, Is it undergoes Conversion<i><b>(CONVERSION_XXXXXX_INPUT)</b></i> routine and stored as 000000000018?
2)my_matnr_2_in_flat_file = AB, Is it undergoes Conversion routine and stored as AB________________?16spaces
3)my_matnr_3_in_flat_file = 00000000000018, It is NOT undergo for conversion routine? coz, its already possessing the leading zeros!
coz, I set breakpoint in CONVERSION_XXXXXX_OUTPUT, and pulled the MATNRs from MARA into my_alv, but the control did not stopped in the said routine!
thanq.

  • Leading zero issue in Report

    Hi Xperts,
    i have report which has Plant ,Batch and Material.
    Now we found that the Batch that start with "0"  no longer has the leading zeros in the report.
    For Exp:
    Plant-X    Material-123     Batch-0012345
    But in report it is showing,
    Plant-X    Material-123     Batch-12345
    As i have checked in the respective Table and in Cube the batch Number (0012345)  is coming correctly with the leading zero.
    but why the leading zero is not showing in my report.
    Could any one please help me on this issue?
    Regards,
    satish

    If your requirement is to show the leading zeros for the Batach, then i will suggest you to redesign the batch infoobject with the compunding objects of material and plant. 
    You have another option like to display the batch from master data in your report by making it as anavigantional attribute in your cube.
    We do have the similar requirement and our business prefered to have Batch compunded with material and plant. Check with your Business and go aheead with the changes.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does my leading zero disappear

    I have created a 4 number field.  Why does my leading zero disappear when moving onto the next field.  How can I correct this?
    Thanks.

    The definition for a field formatted with the "Number" format is to hide the leading zeros.
    Have you tried to access the value of the field in JavaScript using the "valueAsString" property and have the field use a format of  "None"?
    This is how the SSN and U.S. Postal Zip Codes need to be handled to display the 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

    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...

  • Add leading zero to matnr in a conversion program

    Hi All,
    When uploading matnr from a text legacy file , should i add leading zeroes to the sku value. For ex the data from the lagacy is 1000123456 (10 digits length). The values are always numbers. The matnr in SAP is 18 chars. Should my program transform it into 000000001000123456 before saving it into mara-matnr?
    Regards, Oli

    Are you sure that in configuration, the Indicator for lexicographical material numbers is unchecked?  If it checked, then SAP will not then the all numeric material numbers will not get leading zeros by default.   =====>
    Indicator for lexicographical material numbers
    Defines the way numeric material numbers are stored in the database.
    Use
    Caution
    It is only possible to set or reset (cancel) this indicator if no numeric material numbers have been used yet in the system since they would no longer be interpretable after setting or resetting this indicator.
    If this indicator is not set, numeric material numbers are padded with leading zeros and stored right-justified

  • Incoming calls get stripped of leading zeros and I don't know why...

    Hi,
    our UC560 setup is now running for quite some time. But there is still this one issue that is bugging for some time now. 
    We have two ISDN DID trunks for Incoming / Outgoing calls. 
    After my very basic setup I noticed that all caller IDs get their leading zero stripped. In Germany we use the "0" as first digit of the area-code and "00" as the international code.
    I thought a quick fix would be to just add a Call-Back Rule within CCA to add a leading 0. This works for national calls as the transmitted caller-id always includes the area-code even for local calls.
    However If I receive an international call (what happens quite often recently) I'm not getting the expected "00" in front of the number but also only a single "0".
    I took a look at all translation-rules that are configured, but I couldn't find any rule that just deletes all leading zeros from the incoming number :( What's happening there?

  • BAPI_PO_CHANGE document number leading zero problem

    Hi experts,
    The following code clears the "Delivery Complete" flag on a list of Purchase Orders uploaded from a CSV file.
    The PO number is 9 digits long, however, in EKPO table it is stored as 10 digits (prefixed with a zero). The BAPI does not recognise the document number unless it is prefixed with a zero in the CSV file (which adds extra work for the user to create custom format in Excel to add the leading zero).
    What code is required for the BAPI to recognise the 9 digit number without the leading zero?   Perhaps the leading zero could be hard-coded into the program?
    Any advice is much appreciated.  Thanks for your time.

    shift zmat left deleting leading '0'.
    result value of the routine
      RESULT = zmat.
    I'm confusing in Transfermation where to write this routines.
    I'm writing in Transformation as fallows:
    data: zmat(18) type c.
    zmat = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/ZMAT.
    shift zmat left deleting leading '0'.
    RESULT = zmat.
    But it's getting remove zero's.
    Anybody suggest on this.
    Siri

    Dear Sir,
    No confusion at all.
    Just double click on the Target Infoobjct i,e Material object in Transformation, you will see a wizard popping up.
    There you will see a option called "RULE TYPE" and the default value will be "Direct Assignment". In the same check box click on the drop down icon and select "Routine".
    The moment you select the routine option, it will open up ABAP workspace where in you can write your routine and get the desired result.
    Hope it helps.

  • Need formula to take text from one cell, add that to a serial number with leading zeros

    I'm trying to create a spreasdheet cell that simplifies creating videotape Numbers from a job name in cell and appends a serial number with leading zeros, and that would survive an export to EXCEL.
    The result would look like
     A Column
    Job Name
    B ColumnTape #
    Formula needed for B
    ClientName-TapeType-
    ClientName-TapeType-001
    =
    ClientName-TapeType-
    ClientName-TapeType-002
    =
    I've tried using a custom cell format that had the text in front of the (Integer) drag and drop, with three integers and leading zeros.
    That worked, but requires recreating the custom cell format for each client and tape type.
    So, I've used the formula =A2& in order to play around with different things, but haven't hit on something that adjusts for increased numbers and retains the leading zeros.
    I don't mind doing a starter for the first row and then adding +1 in the formulas for the rows below.
    I've done that using the custom cell formats for the first B cell and then using =Bx+1 in the following cells.  It works, but I'm hoping to find something simpler or that can be copied and pasted in multiple rows on one paste.
    Thanks in advance.
    Suggestions much appreciated!
    Ted

    Ted,
    This expression in B will give you the pattern I believe you are looking for:
    =A&RIGHT("00"&ROW()-1, 3)
    Here's a screen shot...

  • 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.)

  • UDF for leading zero's in message mapping

    Dear team,
    I need UDF for leading zero's in my message mapping.
    Source and Target both structures contains matnr field.But we have to maintain total 18 chars at target matnr , because RFC in R/3 needed.So I want to add leading zero's when mapping. Can anybody provide the UDF code.
    Matnr[source]--->split by value(eachvalue) ->UDF->Matnr[Target]
    Ex::if source matnr conatains value "9846538" ; I need matnr value at target side like "000000000009846538"[total 18 chars].

  • Leading Zeros won't display on a PDF form

    Hey, I am using Acrobat 7.0 professional on my Windows XP system. I have a PDF that was sent to me by someone known. This PDF is already fielded (meaning, I can type in my name and other relevant info in the form). However; I am trying to populate info on this PDF using an online data collection tool. Therefore, I deleted all the original fielding from the PDF and fielded it again using the naming conventions that match with the online data collection tool variables. After doing so, all other information is populating very well on the PDF but the values with leading zeros are not populating on the PDF. When I double click that field to check the properties and go to the "Options" tab, I see the value with leading zero that is being extracted from the online data collection tool; however it is not displaying it on the form. Moreover, if I try to modify any of the properties of that field; the value with leading zeros suddenly appears on the PDF Form.
    Could anyone please assist me to identify as to what is causing the values with leading zeros not to populate on the PDF form...
    Any help would be much appreciated...
    Thanks!

    Well, that was my guess. It may be that it is there, but you can't see it. There have been some issues of the information in a field not always displaying correctly. I have not experienced it, but remember such happens. You might want to search the forum. Bill

  • Product ID doesn't have leading zeros

    Hi,
    In the table CRMD_SRV_REFOBJ, some of the product ID has leading zeros and some of the product doesn't have leading zeros. Any idea why it is happening like that?

    Hi,
    Please check it the products base table COMM_PRODUCT. If you find similar set of values, then issue could be with programs creating Product IDs.
    Usually Products flows from ECC, also possiblility to be created in CRM too.  So, the check the Badi  impli CRM_EQUI_LOAD for flow from ECC.
    Hope this helps.
