It could be 4 digital, 5 digital and so on. I would like to concateneate zero and vendor code, but the vendor code is variants, the mechanism should be 15 - vendor code length. How can i fill the remaining to zero.

Pass the same vendor number as impoting and exporting parameter to this FM and it will append it with zeros.</P><P></P><P>Regards,</P><P>Atish</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 05 Nov 2007 01:40:54 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/pre-value-for-variable/m-p/2979331#M703384 Former Member 2007-11-05T01:40:54Z
