Since V5R3 10 years ago, you can specify the character(s) to trim in RPG.
For example, newBadgeId = %TRIML(badgeId:'0 ') will trim leading zeros and

Well I'll be. That's a nice nugget! The %TRIMx functions are so
straightforward and easy to use that I never have to consult the
manual, and thus never stumbled across the new parameter, that I can
remember. (We were a V5R2 shop as late as 2012.)

Maybe the RDi folks get prompting when they try to use it (we are
still exclusively SEU/PDM).
