Material Number Leading Zeros

[Heath, Darrell L.]

Try function module CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT.  It will take into
account any Alpha material numbers as well.  To
CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT can be used to go the other way.

Casey, there are no formatting characters.=20
syntax is: SHIFT <string> LEFT DELETING LEADING <symbol>.   <string> is
your material number string, <symbol> is the symbol that you want to
shift out - '0' in your case.=20
You might want to check SAP Help on SHIFT also..

        But where can I find a listing of these different formatting
characters/symbols
        that can be used here.

                Hi
              =20
                Does anyone know how I can strip the leading zeros off
the material
        number I am
                using in my business object.  I am sending out an email
within the
        workflow that
                displays the material number and my user doe not wish to
see the leading
        zeros.
              =20
                We are on SAP 4.6C.
