AFAB:AA776 "Create document number range ## using internal number assignmen

Question

Good afternoon
I ask for your guidance to see if anyone knows me that is generating errors in the transaction AFAB AA776 "Create document number range ## using internal number assignment", the peculiarity of this is that I'm in an environment that is proving to migrate V5 to V6 ranges in environment QAS is marked as external and no problems to run on v6 change in SAP itself. Test by removing the flag marking for external control and run, causing an alarm is that it does not work as in my QAS v 5 and that I should remove this flag is removed and remove it in all the years this range of numbers is that it can hurt if you make this change.
Can anyone guide me please.
Thanks for the support.
good day

Hello ,
Kindly have a look at the below  notes that will help you resolve the
issue :
890976 - Converting closing report to internal doc number assgnmnt
If note 890976 has been applied in your system already (package
level is = or > SAPKH60005), so what you need to check is the
following :
In transaction FBN1, in your company code  you should see that the
period and number range in question is ticked as external.
Please untick the indicator for "External" and press enter. If this
box happens to be uneditable then untick the number range for the
previous year and press enter. All other entries will update
automatically.
Here is a brief explaination to why this change has been made:
Before ERP2005(RAPOST2000 exists as of release 4.70)the number usage
was external, because RAPOST2000 internally managed the document number
handling. As this was not possible any more with the New General Ledger
functionality, and as the usage of internal number ranges is much
simpler and more efficient, we changed the number range management
inside RAPOST2000 (and by the way also the new periodic posting report
RAPERB2000).
Please kindly check the attached notes 683313 for your reference.
I hope this provides some clarification.
regards
