LSMW for MM01 - Gross weight error

[Former Member]

Hi all,

while running LSMW, for MM01, I put gross weight as 5 tonnes.

but while running "Display read data" it shows as 000000000005 tonnes.

total 13 digits.

For field BRGEW- From table MARA, field is defined as a QUAN field with length 13.

same I mentioned in source field option of LSMW.

now what should I do to get only 5 tonnes as output skipping all initial zeroes.

Kindly suggest.

you did not mention what you get instead of 5 tonnes, right now I do not see the problem.

why does it hurt when leading zeros are skipped?

you enter 5 - then you see 000000000005 - and finally you see again 5 , and then you complain that this should be wrong?

Hi Mr. Jurgen,

I think , I have not made myself clear to you.

I am not getting 5 tonnes finally.

getting to see 0000000000005 as gross weight.

my querry is how can I skip initial zeroes in output.

want to get 5 tonnes as final answer( ie without initial zeroes).

do you want to tell me that after posting the material master you still see   0000000000005 in the gross weight field?
