Function Module for adding Leading Zero's to a specific field

Former Member — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 00:51:52 GMT

Hi,

Can anyone please provide a Function that will do the following:

1. Take the value of the field

2. Take the field type

3. Output the value of the field with leading zero's.

Anything similar would be very helpful.

Thank You & Best Regards,

John

Sure use the function CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT, this will add leading zeros to a character based field of any length.



data: lv_c(10) type c value '123'.

call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
          exporting 
                  input = lv_c
          importing
                 output = lv_c.
write:/ lv_c.

Regards,

CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT will serve ur purpose..

data:

f1 type char10.

f1 = 789.

passing f1 to CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT will give you output as 0000000789.

data: lv_c(10) type c value '123'.
unpack lv_c TO lv_c.
