Hi ,
Can we maintain alfa-numaric number ranges for BP Master and product master

345XYZ .
full points will be rewarded

Hi,
You can maintain the external number ranges as A100000 to A900000 in the number range maintianance for BPs as well as Product Masters
The method for the same for BPs would be to create the number range and assign it to a Grouping using
SPROCross-Application ComponentsSAP Business PartnerBusiness PartnerBasic SettingsNumber Ranges and GroupingsDefine Groupings and Assign Number Ranges
Hope this would help.

Alfa Numeric Number range creation

hi
Pls try with the following ,Hope it will help u out
Number Ranges can be maintained Internally by the system, however it can be maintained externally also if you customize it accordingly.
In Standard SAP the Transaction code for Maintaiing Number ranges externally is VN01.
Defining - The same can be reached through in IMG as : Sales & Distribution>Sales>Sales Document Header-->Define Number Ranges for Sales Documents.
Here you provide the system a specific Number range as follows:
Number range Key Start Number range End Number Range+Current Number
For Example: If you want to propose the following Number Range
*1 9000076000 9000076999 0
The Current Number field will be kept zero as you are proposing new number range and no sales documents have been created on it , Obviously..
*1 is a Unique Two digit Alphanumeric Key, while proposing your key, you should ensure that it should not be there in the system as existing.
If you propose a key that is there in the system or if the Number Range (Start and End Series) is there in the system already, the system will throw a message that Interval already already exists. So choose a key that is unique, and which is not there in the system.
Here , by making this , you are assigning a Key to a Number Range Series.
All the symbols can be used along with numbers from 0 to 9 and Alphabets from A to Z and in any order. For example: !1, ^A, BB,Z*,M2.........
Assigning - In Assigning, you assign the particular Sales Document to the Number Range you have already proposed as above.
The Assigning Part is done as follows:
The Two digit Alpha Numeric Key is maintained or Assigned to the respective Sales Document type in V0V8.
This can also be reached in IMG by:
Sales & Distribution>Sales>Sales Document Header-->Define Sales Document Types
Locate the particular Sales Doc Type, and double click on it to display it configuration. Here you put the Two Digit Number key in the Field- "Number range External Assignment"

Some external number range are not valid for equipment creation

Hi All,
What could be the reason even though the external number range is maintained for equipment category as a combination of ALFA Numeric, for certain combinations, system accepts while creating Equipment and for certain combination of ALFA numeric number, system is throwing error " equipment number not in external number interval".
Waiting for your valuable inputs..
Thanks
Surya

Hi
As your define No. Range is :000AAA-1000 to 000ZZZ-9999.You can Not use No which Involves the Alphbatic Value as "AAA" As it is begaining of your number range .You can Check another upcomimg number which just fall after "AAA" is "ABA"it will accept.Number which come with "AAA" will not accept by system.So you need to start your numbering form the next number of your Define Lower Limit(starting point) value that is "ABA-....."

Hi,
Pls find here some details about generating alphanumeric serial numbers in production order as below :
You can generate alphanumeric serial number with the following BADI / Customer Exit:
Name of Enhancement : IQSM0001
Name of Function Module Exit: EXIT_SAPLIPW1_001
Name of Include : ZXQSMU01
ZXQSMU01:
This user exit can be used to create the serial numbers automatically for material of a production order. Number of serial numbers generated will be equal to the total number of quantity. The purpose behind development of this user exit was to attach prefix in each serial number generated.
so as per your requirement you can generate serial number like ABC0001 etc.
Process Steps:
For exit: EXIT_SAPLIPW1_001
1. Get serial number profile for a material in respective plant.
2. Check if the profile is u2018XYZu2019.
3. If profile is u2018XYZu2019 generate the serial numbers for the given quantity of material in production order.
General Program Structure
For exit: EXIT_SAPLIPW1_001
1. Get the serial number profile using function module 'MARC_SINGLE_READ' for a material.
2. Check if the profile is u2018XYZu2019.
3. If the serial number profile is u2018XYZu2019 then generate the serial numbers for the given production order quantity of a material.
4. Concatenate ABC as a prefix to the all generated serial numbers
Provide above details reg. implementation BADI / Enhancement to your ABAPer and go ahead.
Hope this helps.
Revert in case of any doubt.
Award points if useful.

Hi,gurus,my question is addresed to the sap cin gurus
Scenario:-- Normally sap has provided provisions that the domestic invoice and the excise for the export will have different number range object
Transaction-snum or snro(As per the rule the no range has to be approved by excise authorities)
Requirement:--The present requirement of the client is that as per their requirement they will be using the same excise number range both for domestic and the export(They have got the approval from the excise department as per the amendment,that specifies the same)
so i request you to pls guide me as how can it be done in sap that two different business process will share the same number range.

and for exports is-J_1IEXCEXPand the both will use the same number range and,suppose 1 local invoice is created and say if the no is 1,then if the export excise invoice is created the number will be 2,pls guide me how is it possible that the same number range should be used.
Thanks in advance---Anshuman chakraborty

CRM ISA R/3 Edition on AP 7.0 Pricing Routine Number range error

Hi Experts,
For our R/3 ISA Secenerio I have developed a Pricing Prepare Routine (PRP). I have uploaded this routine into AP 7.0 ( which runs my IPC 5.0). Now when I try to register my PRP routine I'm not able to do so because of Number range not defined for Application V Scenerio A and Routine Type PRP.
My question are:
1) For a PRP type Routine( Multiple Implementation) is it important to assign a
routine number? ***( according to pricinguserexit manual dummy routine no
has to be assigned)******
2) If yes then how can i assign Number range for this combination.
NOTE: AP 7.0 has SP 7 ( So it fullfills requirment for Special scenerio)
I have never recieved a reply for my query from this forum... hope someone helps this time. :)

Dipender Singh

How to assign numbers in external number range?

Dear experts,
Since NUMBER_GET_NEXT can only be used to assign numbers in internal number range, how to assign numbers in external number range?
So far, I only know the NUMBER_CHECK function module to deal with external number ranges and it only check a number whether it lies in any external number range or not, but it doesn't update any number range status. What I need is a function module like NUMBER_GET_NEXT that supports external number range.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Haris
Edited by: harissahlan on Oct 19, 2011 5:44 AM

With external number range, there is no updating of the number range objectt. The only thing you need to know is whether the number you wish to assign is allowed according to the external number range. And also check if there isn't already an object/document with the same number in the database.

Number ranges for material document (migo) and inventory documents

Hi Gurus,
We need a different number ranges for goods receipt documents and inventory documents because we have different company merged in to one box.Can any body tell me on what basis we differenciate the number ranges how to configure it.
If we take PO, we have different doc types and we assign number ranges to those documents. in case of Miro , it is the single transaction code used by different companies and how to give different number ranges.
Regards,
Sri........

Hi,
I think number ranges of inventory documents are on client level not on company code wise . because even though your creating new document and assigned different number ranges for the documents but these while assigning ranges to T codes (MIGO or MIRO) you dont have option like company codes ( tcode OMBA) so number ranges for inventory documents are at client level not at company code level.

Number range purchase requisitions at storage location level

How can I define a number range for purchase requisitions at storage location level? I have one plant with several storage locations and I want a number range for purchase requisitions per storage location.

what is the background to this request?
I guess that the requestor can easily identify their own requisitions among many.
I dont think that this is necessary with SAP, do not put to much importance in numbers, there are many other options to meet the users requirements.

Billing doc external number range

Hi Guys,
As per my knowledge billing doc uses only Internal number range but when i check table: TVFK i can see No. range external maintained (XX) same maintained my company where shall i config this please give me idea and steps.
Regards
JACK

Hi Jack
In VN01, number ranges for all will be maintained wherein you can see on the right side a tab "Ext". If you tick in this box, assign to your billing types in VOFA, then whenever you do billing, external numbers will be generated.
Reward if this helps you.

Accounting Document No Number Ranges

I have got a requirement wherein the client has asked for the Accounting Document Numbers has to be at Plant Level, & not the Company code level...
Kindly inform me is it possible to allocate the different Number Ranges for Plant Level

hi ASHWIN,
how many plants are there? If not too much, say less than ten, you can create separate document types for the plants. To the different document types you can assign different number ranges. On the other hand you have to write exits, that the proper document type is used in case of MIRO posting for example. You need to create validations as well, that a specific document can only be used for a specific plant (in case of manual posting).
hope this helps
