Hi

I need to add lead zeros.

Data:v_var1 like resb-stlkn.

Eg: v_var1 = 5. I need output like V_var1 = 00000005.

Eg: v_var1 = 25. I need output like V_var1 = 00000025.

Please help me.how can I change?

HI Jay,

Use function module CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT as follows:

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'

EXPORTING

INPUT = v_var1

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = v_var1

.

This should solve your problem. If it doesnt, convert v_var1 into a character field and pass it to the above function module. This will definitely work.

Jay,

SHIFT v_var1 right deleting TRAILING space.

TRANSLATE v_var1 USING ' 0'.

Hi

CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT converts any number into a string fill with zeroes, with the number at the extreme right

Example:

input = 123

output = 0000000000000...000000000000123

CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT converts any number with zeroes right into a simple integer

Example:

input = 00000000000123

output = 123

It's not documentated, but it works. Try

unpack v_var1.
