Symptom
You have extended a production order form template via data source extension. For some extended fields, for example BillOfOperationsVariant, there is leading zero in the system. However, on the output item, the leading zero is missing.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
The leading zero is removed due to the output alpha conversion.
Resolution
For such fields, to make them to be printed with leading zeros, apply either of the following approaches based on the scenarios (use 2-digit number as an example):
- If the field is directly printed, add a pattern to the object as shown below:
- If the field is used in a script, use the format command looks like:
format("99",<path to bound field>)
