hi,

Pass that value in to a character/integer variable to supress ....


i.e, data : v_num(10) type n value '099999999',
               v_char type i.

   v_char = v_num.

   write : v_char, v_num.

before passing the value to table.....

do this way....


REPORT ZABC .

DATA : V_CHAR(10) VALUE '0000001234'.
TRANSLATE V_CHAR USING '0 '.
CONDENSE V_CHAR.
WRITE : V_CHAR.


REPORT ZABC .

DATA : V_CHAR(10) VALUE '0000001234'.
SHIFT V_CHAR LEFT DELETING LEADING '0'.
CONDENSE V_CHAR.
WRITE : V_CHAR.

Hi,

One way is that whatever the domain you have give to that field cheange the output length to 9.(If it is customized table .Otherwise lot of other data elements might be used .That will impact other tables.)

SE11~~>click on domain~~>change mode~~>definition tab~~>

Hi,

Try this.

shift g_number left deleting leading '0'.

Use to FM

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'

EXPORTING

input = inputchar

IMPORTING

output = inputchar.

All the leading 0 are suppress into the output.

vice versa operation 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'

0 are appended equalling the lenght of the element.

Reward if helpful.

thanks,

Imran.
