Posted on by Community Member

I'm retrieving a string which would be along the lines of ISS00001
I want to trim the ISS and convert the string to a number
Then I want to add 1 to the number and covert back to string and add ISS back to it
However when I convert to string I lose all the 0's, does anyone know how to keep the 0's
the code is as follows;

var replaceIS = issueNum.replace("ISS","");
var issueInt = new Number(replaceIS);
issueInt++;

Something like below will do the job... I have not tested this so check it

var replaceIS = issueNum.replace("ISS","");

var strLth = replaceIS .length; //store the length of the string after replacing ISS

var issueInt = new Number(replaceIS);

issueInt++;

var hashStore = '000000000000000000000000000'; //Zero var strwithLeadingZero= hashStore.substring(0,strLth-issueInt.length ) + issueInt; //Adds number of zeros based on returned number.

Try this..

var reissue=issueNum.substring(3,issueNum.length); var newNumber=parseInt(reissue)+1; var issueNewNum='ISS'; if(newNumber<99) issueNewNum=issueNewNum+'0000'+newNumber if(newNumber<999 && newNumber>99) issueNewNum=issueNewNum+'000'+newNumber if(newNumber<9999 && newNumber>999) issueNewNum=issueNewNum+'00'+newNumber if(newNumber<99999 && newNumber>9999) issueNewNum=issueNewNum+'0'+newNumber if(newNumber<999999 && newNumber>99999) issueNewNum=issueNewNum+''+newNumber
