Hi Experts,

Iam new to XI.

Iam doing a File to Idoc scenario (PO Response) ,

I want to remove the leading zeroes from one of the field from file and map it to the corresponding Idoc field.

Is there any Standard functions to do this ? If not , Can anyone pls post the code for UDF to execute this Logic.

waiting for ur response.

Thanks in Advance.

you donot need a UDF for this....

use the 'formatNum' function in the arithmetic functions....as a parameter to this function just put '#'...

This will suppress all the leading zeroes...

Thanks,

say ur inptu to the udf is <b>inputVal</b> use the below code in UDF:

String output = <b>inputVal</b>.replaceFirst("^0+","");

return output;

or also

int Seq = Integer.parseInt(<b>inputVal</b>)
