You Can use the following statement:

SHIFT c LEFT DELETING LEADING c1.

eg.,

data : matnr(8) value '00001234'.

write : matnr.

shift matnr left deleting leading '0'.

write : matnr.

Output:

000001234

1234

Reward points if it is useful..

You can try:

data: Mat(10) value '0000001254'.
translate mat using '0 '.    "<====  zero to space

Well, I'm a bit embarassed. I usually check that sort of thing. So try:

DATA: mat(10) VALUE '0000001054'.
SHIFT mat LEFT DELETING LEADING '0'.
SHIFT mat RIGHT DELETING TRAILING ' '      "<==== space.
