Hi Monika, thank you for your forum post.
Yes, the number generators do truncate the prefix zero's. I have even tested using a csv file as the source and the prefix zero's are still removed if the datatype of the column is an int.
Testing against a CHAR or VARCHAR column, using a csv file I was able to keep the prefix zero's.
I hope the above answers your question.
Many Thanks

Hi Eddie
Thank You for your response. I have changed the int to varchar and directly input the values with 5 digit ID generate option.
