Numeric Pattern

Avatar

Level 7

What will be the pattern for a numeric field if a user has to type zero or zeros before a number?

I have tried the Allow zeros but shows only the zeros between or after the number  !

For example if I type 001230 shows as 1230.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

You should consider what you will use the data for afterwards. If it is used in calculations, it is better to have it as a numeric field. If it is not used in calculations then you could use a textfield. Sample attached.

The text field will accept leading zeros without any script or pattern.

The 9 comb numeric field with a pattern of 999999999 will fill the comb with the required number of leading zeros.

Good luck,

Niall
