You are basically there. With CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT you feed
it 000000000000ABC123
and it returns ABC123. If on the otherhand, you have ABC123 and you feed
it to CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT, you'll get back 000000000000ABC123. So
you could then use it in the DB.

Now, you will wonder how to find out these wonderful facts for your self in
the future... Say you notice that any field is displayed on the screen as
X but stored in the DB as Y. There is probably going to be a conversion
exit involved. Drill down on the DB field into its Data Element (DE).
From there drill down on the Data Domain (DD). In the definition tab, near
the bottom, you see "convers. routine". Drill into that. Not you see the
FM's for the conversion routine.

It's magic!

Hi Arbis82,

Thanks for your reply.

I can understand it seems confusing reading the post now.. with add I mean that I have to add the leading zeros for the system to approve the alphanumerical material numbers.

Instead of populating the material number with ABC123
I have to populate it with 000000000000ABC123 for the system to accept it.

How does the CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT work? Do I call the FM or do I do changes in it?

I have tried the CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT but it seems to work only with numerical value and not with alphanumerical.
