What do you need help with?
Coming from Airtable, ran into an issue in the first few minutes.
I have numbers with leading 0 (zero), our SKUs are starting with 0001
Product barcodes often start with 0 too.
In Airtable there is a field type Barcode that preserves the leading 0.
When I use the number type of field the 0 is deleted.
How do I handle this in Baserow?
Hey @Weasel, we have this issue in the pipeline: Barcode field (#472) · Issues · Baserow / baserow · GitLab 
Would it work for you if you changed the Number field to a Text field? This way, SKUs/barcodes will remain exactly as typed.
I also recommend checking this thread: Spare parts stock database with app - is it doable?.
Is this still in the works?
Would really love to have it. 
Hey @Weasel, yes, this is still planned, but I’m afraid it’s not a high priority at the moment.
That said, I’ll double-check and let you know for sure.
