Leading zeros in Packingslip are removed in staging

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Koti9999 55

Hi All,

I am working on uploading data into AX 2012 with DIX framework..

When I try to import data using an XML file, there is a field called  Packingslip(String) has leading zeros (Ex. Packingslip="000000123"),

when the data is imported into staging the Packingslip has only the value without the zeros (Packingslip="123"). 

Can you please help to fix the issue from AX side.

Thank you  in Advance.

    Hi Koti9999,

    Can you please check the source data configuration in the DIX framework?

    Here is a description what to look out for: docs.microsoft.com/.../walkthrough-import-data-from-a-csv-data-source-dixf-dmf

    An alternative to this is changing your packing slip numbers if that is possible.

    Instead of 000000123 you could use PS000000123 and the upload should work without a problem.

    Before considering this, have a talk with your colleagues from the inventory area.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Ludwig,

    Thank you for your suggestion.

    Actually the source file comes from upstream to our AX.

    So the upstream sending  the packingslip number as leading with zeros.in other scenarios it's working as expected like if it sends 4567..it is saving to staging table correctly. but when the packing slip comes with zero leading the value is saving into staging with truncated zeros.
