tMap Pad String with Leading 0

I have been wrestling with this all day.  StringHandling.LPAD(row2.SAP_ID, 6, "0")  tests without error in the Expression Builder however isn't inserting the leading 0's in my field.  Any suggestions?

 

Many thanks!

@lli , you can do below way also.

 

here id column data type is string , 30 is length of string and 0 is the padding character.

StringHandling.LPAD(row3.id,30,"0")
