Use FM : CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT

[Former Member]

shift <field> left deleting leading '0'.

U write ur code like this

data a(9) value '000012345'.

SHIFT a LEFT DELETING LEADING '0'.

write:/ a.

Output will be : 12345

Or use this method also

data a(9) value '000012345'.

Call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'

Exporting

input = a

Importing

output = a.

write a.

output:

12345.

Thanks and best of luck

hi,

Use CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT FM to achieve the same

data:wk_val(5) type c value '00011'.

write wk_val into wk_val using edit mask '==ALPHA'.

This method is easier than calling FM.

DATA : MAT1(18) TYPE C.

MAT1 = ITAB_MATNR.

Hi,

SHIFT FIELD LEFT DELETING LEADING '0' syntax can be used for removing leading zeros.
