"Alphanumeric" number ranges for material matser

Hi all,
    What are the sequence of steps needed to create "Alphanumeric" number ranges for material matser. Can anyone explain me the steps.
Thanks

Hi,
To add to what Sridhar has said ....we have got 2 number ranges only...
either internal or extenal.....
Better idea is to have internal only untill or unless it is at all required so.
It all depends on material type....
In internal it is more easy to maintain the ranges....but in case of extenal....lot more precaution is required.
Award if any thing answer you query .
Thanks

  • OMX4 - FBN1 - Number range for Material document and FI document

    47 - is for FI document number range in Material ledger FBN1.  OMX4 gives number range for Material document.  My question is how big the number range must be?  Since thousands of Materials involved, I couldn't imagin this?
    Anybody knows, how to determine the size of no. ranges in Material Ledger configuration?  SAP simply says, check no. ranges whether it meets the requirement....
    I don't expect an answer again, just check your business, how many transactions would be in a period, which is not quantifiable now?
    I would like to understand this from somebody's experience of using insufficient or excessive no. ranges, especially in this area.
    Cheers,
    Ashok

    What is the number range you are using? Year Dependent or Independent?
    When you don't know the document number consumption pattern you should use Year dependent number range in both OMX4 & FBN1. Observing this for a month will give a rough Idea and observing for a Quarter will give you a fair Idea and the result for a year gives almost near to accurate consumption of number ranges.
    The generation of documents is dependent on the number of materials and Profit centers involved. As much as possibe use Summarization at profit center level when posting to FI. This will reduce the number of documents and line items that are getting generated.

  • Number range for material documents

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    Can anyone please advise if we can reset number range for material documents once it reached to last number for existing number range ?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Manoj

    Hi,
    If material numbering  reached to last number for existing number range, you can create Number Range Text Group and assign to your material type in following path
    IMG -> Logistic ->General -> Material Master ->Basic Settings ->Material Type ->Define Number Range for each Material Type
    OR
    T.code:MMNR
    Lets example you have now:
    Number Range Text Group:01
    From Number:     1
    To Number     :19999999
    Now you can create Now One Number Range Text Group
    Number Range Text Group:02
    From Number:20000000
    To Number     :29999999
    Now assign Number Range Text Group to your material type in MMNR , {{by clicking group in menu, select maintaion->group->insert
    Number Range Text Group:02
    From Number:20000000
    To Number     :29999999
    and save}}.

    Hi
    In tcde MMNR select groups in the application tool bar a pencil like icon click that
    Then go to group in the top menu bar
    In that if you choose insert
    Then a dialogue box will open
    In that give text and
    there will be two lines
    First is for internal no range
    second is for external no range with the check box ticked in grey
    In that you have to choose the second one and give only the range interval
    External tick is already there ready made in the system
    If you are sure that your settings are correct in MMNR
    IMG-L.G-MATERIAL MASTER-BASIC SETTINGS-MATERIAL TYPE---DEFINE ATTRIBUTES OF MATERIAL TYPES
    in this choose your material type and click on its details
    in the general data tab there is a external no assignmentw/o check a check box is there
    Pls tick that and try to do your process by giving external no

  • External Alphanumeric Number range for order

    Hi  ,
    My requirement is to create an external number range for one PM order type where
    first 8 places from left can be alphanumeric and next 4 places should be numeric only .
    like EQ12341H0112
    here last numeric characters(in bold)  actually will specify month and year in format MMYY (0112 means jan2012) . So I doesn't want system to accept  last four characters as 1312 or 0012  also (because month should be in range 01 to 12 only)
    How I can achieve the same.What number range i should define for external entry .
    Regards
    PM
    Edited by: PM_SAP87 on Jan 18, 2012 11:41 AM

    Hi,
    You will not be able to achieve this specific logic by just defining a number range. What you can do is define an external number range that is alphanumeric and use exit IWO10017 to format and validate user entry.

  • 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.

    You can define number range for Purchase requistions in OMH7 transaction agaist each number range number and you assign can assign these number range number to your purchase requistion document types in SPRP >> Materials management >> Purchasing >> Purchase requistion >>Define doucment type.
    E.g for NB doc type number range number is 20
    and in OMH7 number range number 20  has interval from- 2000000000 to 2099999999
    same way
    for RV doc type number range number is 21
    and in OMH7 number range number 21  has interval from- 2100000000 to 2199999999

    Number ranges for Material document are maintained in OMBT.
    But there is no need to maintain different number ranges for material document as same as financail document. Financial documents are year based whereas material documents are not.
    Also if you are maintaining the material document number ranges as per year specific, then also same document number cant be used. But in case of financial document, the document number can be same i.e year specific.
    Different number ranges for Material Document :-
    Then assign the specific interval for a specific year like
    Year      From Number           To Number
    2001      0100000000     0199999999
    2002      4900000000     4999999999
    2003      5000000000     5999999999
    2004      0200000000     0299999999
    Still any queries, revert back.

In SPRO -- Materials Management -- Inventory Management -- Number ranges for material documents -- Number ranges for Goods Issues/transfer posting -- For WA insert year 2006 and assign the number range for the year 2006.
    Number ranges for material documents will be maintained year wise.
