Verifing Digits with repeat

Hi,

I need to check  a field for that I  fill with  zeros until get length equal to 11 and make the first verification, and that works just fine, but after  that I need a second verification and I need to fill this fields until reach 14 digits and for some reason the same command doesn't work. I tried other transformations but with the same result.

 

Thank you

Ex.

Input

1234

00000001234

LAYOUT:

    '0'& Instalacao AS ID_INSTALACAO,
    If(len("CPF/CNPJ")<11,Repeat(0, 11-Len("CPF/CNPJ"))&Text("CPF/CNPJ"),Text("CPF/CNPJ")) AS CPF_CNPJ,
    Segmento
FROM [MyLocal.xlsx]
(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Plan1);

AUX_LAYOUT_CNPJ:
LOAD
DISTINCT
    ID_INSTALACAO,
    If(len(CPF_CNPJ)<14,Repeat(0, 14-Len(CPF_CNPJ))&Text(CPF_CNPJ),Text(CPF_CNPJ)) AS CPF_CNPJ,

RESIDENT LAYOUT

//Tried this just for test
NoConcatenate

Hi, for some reason it fails when you use the same name as the field on LAYOUT table, try renaming it, like

LAYOUT:
LOAD
    '0'& Instalacao AS ID_INSTALACAO,
    If(len("CPF/CNPJ")<11,Repeat(0, 11-Len("CPF/CNPJ"))&Text("CPF/CNPJ"),Text("CPF/CNPJ")) AS tmpCPF_CNPJ,
    Segmento
resident Data;

AUX_LAYOUT_CNPJ:
NoConcatenate
LOAD
DISTINCT
    ID_INSTALACAO,
    If(len(tmpCPF_CNPJ)<14,Repeat('0', 14-Len(tmpCPF_CNPJ))&Text(tmpCPF_CNPJ),Text(tmpCPF_CNPJ)) AS CPF_CNPJ,
    Segmento
RESIDENT LAYOUT
;

 Btw, I think you don't need to check the If(), just Repeat('0', 14-Len(tmpCPF_CNPJ))&Text(tmpCPF_CNPJ) will return the same result.

Hi Ruben,

That work, but why it happened?

Will be complicate  to change the field's name every time that we change something in that field. But thanks a lot for that solution.

Hi Eduardo, I don't know, the syntax was correct so I did some test and found that it worked changing field names, I think this is some kind of bug.
