E9.2 How to trim in DataRequest ?

[EdmondR91]

Does anyone have any idea on how to imitate SQL TRIM functionality in Data Request within Orchestrator ?
I have a data request based on a UDC but my input isnt working because of all the spaces within the feild which makes it impossible to get the value i'm looking for.

Help ?!?

You can map the output of the data request to an input in a groovy script and use the trim() function. I included a screenshot of a working example below.

Thank you so much appreciated , but i actually need to trim the input parameter . like when in SQL u do WHERE TRIM(KY) = 6 ;

It's the same thing. You can map the input parameter directly to the groovy script and then use the output of the groovy script in a future step or output.

Thank you , sorry for the late reply I was on vacation .
With the trim it didn't work so i had to refer to Lpad which worked fine based on your script too

Happy new Year
