3802001 - Zeros in International Location Number display as hyphen in Manage Business Partner app (SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition)

• An International Location Number (for example, Int. Location No. 2) is maintained in the Maintain Business Partner app with a value consisting only of zeros (for example, 00000).

  The behavior differs between applications:

  • In the Maintain Business Partner app, the field displays the value exactly as entered (00000).
  • In the Manage Business Partner app, the same field is displayed as a hyphen (-).

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

1. Open the Maintain Business Partner app.
2. Navigate to Identification > Organization Data.
3. Enter an International Location Number consisting only of zeros (for example, 00000).
4. Save the business partner or refresh the application.
5. Confirm that the field continues to display the entered value (00000).
6. Open the Manage Business Partner app.Locate the same business partner.
7. Observe that the International Location Number is displayed as '-'.

• This is standard system behavior.

  • International Location Number fields do not accept an all-zero value as a valid identifier.
  • A value consisting only of zeros is treated as an initial value.
  • As a result, no value is persisted in the database.
  • When the Manage Business Partner app reads the data, the field is interpreted as empty and is therefore displayed as a hyphen (-).
