May i ?

with little change and without interim you can use RudiC solution, following might work:

Code:
awk -F, -vOFS="|" '
        {L2 = $1-length($2)
         L3 = $1-length($3)
         $5 = substr($4, 4, 1)=="1"?"B":"A"
         $4 = $1
	 $1 = "E" 
         $2 = sprintf ("%s%0*d%*s", $2, L2, 0, L3, "")
         $3 = sprintf ("%s%d%*s", $3, 10^L3-1, L2, "")
        }
1
'  file
