2847969 - Identified Stock ID With Leading Zero

Symptom

You want to know why the system is not considering Leading Zeros when creating Identified Stock IDs either via manually or migration.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Either go to the Warehousing and Logistics Master Data work center or Planning and Production Master Data workcenter.
  2. Go to the Common Tasks view.
  3. Choose the New Identified Stock sub view.
  4. Enter all the required details.
  5. Now enter Identified Stock ID manually starting with Leading Zero + Numeric Value for example:- 01234 ( i.e. here 01234 is an identified stock ID)
  6. Perform Save.
  7. Here you find that system saves Identified Stock ID as 1234 instead of 01234. ( i.e. here 01234 and 1234 are an identified stock ID)

Cause

The system does not consider leading 0 with Numeric ID. It only considers when there is Alphanumeric ID for any master data document i.e. Leading zero+ Numbers + Letters.

 For example: 01234AB. (i.e. here 01234AB is an Identified Stock ID)

Resolution

  1.  Either go to the Warehousing and Logistics Master Data work center or Planning and Production Master Data work center.
  2.  Go to the Common Tasks view.
  3.  Choose the New Identified Stock subview.
  4.  Enter all the required details.
  5.  Now enter Identified Stock ID manually with Alphanumeric ID for example:-01234AB. (i.e. here 01234AB is an Identified Stock ID)
  6.  Perform Save.
  7.  Now, the system generates Identified Stock ID with Leading Zero correctly.
