Hi Abapers,

There is an issue needing resolution relating to the functionality for handling UPC codes and GTIN numbers on the material master record.

we need to carry both the UPC code and the GTIN codes on the same record. The UPC code is typically a 12 digit number and the GTIN code is the same number of length 14 by adding two leading zeros.

SAP is checking numbers being entered in the EAN/UPC field on Basic Data 1 screen of the material master record (MARA-EAN11) as absolute number only i.e.., its considering 49000024661 even if we give 00049000024661.

How can we maintaing leading zeros for this field. referred OSS note: 545520 but couldnt find any solution.

Please suggest as what need to be done inorder to maintain leading zeros as well. how can we achieve this?

Does it require abap coding or functional configuring?

Please do the needfull. Points are sure for all usefull answers..

Thanks in advance...
