Use

You can set for which object types the system should suppress leading zeros here.

Requirements

Standard settings

The default setting is that the system suppresses leading zeros for all object keys during input and output.

Activities

Set the indicator for object types for which you want the system to suppress leading zeros.

• Input:
  If you set the indicator for input, a purely numerical key is always saved technically in the database with leading zeros. Therefore, the system saves the key of a business entity for which you have entered the number 1 as 00000001.
  
  We recommend that you use this setting for all keys. In this way, you make sure that in all lists in which the numbers appear sorted, the sort sequence is the one you expected. If you do not set the indicator then the keys are saved left-aligned alphanumerically. For example, if you have created a business entity with number 9 and one with number 12, then business entity 12 appears before business entity 9 if the indicator is not set and the list is sorted ascending.
  
  Note that leading zeros can only be added if the key entered only consists of numbers (and if necessary spaces before and after it but not between the numbers).
  
• Output:
  If you set the indicator for output then the system does not display saved leading zeros for purely technical keys in the appropriate field in the database. For example, the system displays a business entity that has the number 00000007 in the database as 7. The list is still sorted in the numerical sequence.
  

Note

Note that setting the indicator subsequently for input can mean that you can no longer access objects that were created at a time when the indicator was not set. Therefore, the indicator should never be set subsequently for input in a production client. However, subsequently setting or resetting the indicator for output is uncritical since this only influences the display of the key.
