Well, they call CONV_EXIT_EAN11_OUTPUT_INTERN and CONV_EXIT_EAN11_INPUT_INTERN, if they exist on the system. ( E.g. for BI, they don't exist, for R/3 they do ).

Then, from the SAP Help on EAN11:

EAN11 Conversion Routine

Use

The EAN11 conversion routine is used for European Article Numbers (EAN) and the American Universal Product Code (UPC).

Functions

It converts the external presentation, according to settings in transaction W4ES (in the R/3 source system), into the internal SAP presentation. In the SAP system, left-hand zeros are not saved as, according to EAN standards, these are not required. For example, the EAN ‘123’ is the same as the EAN ‘00123’. As such, the left-hand zeros are dispensed with.

UPC-E code short forms are converted into the long form.

The EAN11 conversion routine formats the internal presentation of each EAN type, according to settings in transaction W4ES, for output. This ensures that the internal presentation does have left-hand zeros, or that UPC codes are converted to the short form.

Hi,

These are conversion exits for EAN code.

CONVERSION_EXIT_EAN11_INPUT will convert the EAN code to Internal SAP format which will remove all leading zeroes.
