Declare the variable type N.

ex: v_amt(10) type n.

pass the value to v_amt.

Use the FM : CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT to convert it to 10 digit number.

Use the Function Module CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT

Check the sample code:

data: NUMBER(8) VALUE 0, "Original number without zeros

NUMBER2(8). "numbers with zeros

*Incrementing value.

NUMBER = NUMBER + 1.

*Padding zeros

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'

EXPORTING

input = NUMBER

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = NUMBER2.

WRITE: / 'Number 1 ', NUMBER,

'Number 2 ', NUMBER2.

for padding Zeros

use FM Conversion_Exit_alpha_Input

and pass the input field in import paramter as input and to get the output from export parameter declare the field of particular length suppose l_output(15) type c.

this will convert 15 input to 0000000000000015

Hi,

If the data type of your variable is of type N you need not worry.

It will automatically converted to 0000001450.

Else it is of TYPE C,

Use unpack .

Else.

It is of TYPE P.

Use decimals 0.
