Error while posting downpayment documents in transaction f-53

Question

Hi,
I am sending this mail once again as my earlier two messages was blocked by moderators. I don't know the reason for the same. I didn't used any mocky languages or abusing words.  Normally the questions are blocked if the total no of postings are unmarked as 'answered' exceeds 10. But in my case it is not exceeded the limit.  Any way I am posting the question once again,  and I hope I will get  some helpful support from  SAP community network.
We have different company in our configurations and in some cases we were using same document types in different company codes. For easy tracking from this fiscal year onwards we assigned separate document types for individual company codes. When we use tcode f-53 or 5.58  in the initial screen after specifying company code and  document type and the bank account , business area and vendor account in the next screen normally the open items for the given vendor should appear. but in our case it is giving error  message f-5150 ' number range for the document type xx is not maintained for company code 'xxx' for this fiscal year 2009' and we are not albe to proceed. Please give any valid solutions for the same. I hope I didn't used any abusing words in this. I will explain the problem with an example given below.
doc type : xx in company code com1 ( number range defined)
doc type : zz in company code com2 ( number range defined)
suppose we are using these document types for the outgoing payments in two diffent company codes and we have common vendor v0001 for both.
now in tcode f-53 or f-58 if you are posting for the first company with doctype 'xx' and company com1 and if we specify vendor account, normally as per sap all the open items pertaining to the vendor / compnay code will display, but in our case it is displaying the next screen with an error stating that ' number range not defined for document type xx in company code COM2'
which is not correctl. In this screen we cannot change the company code to 'COM1' which is correct.
This is same in the case of customer and GL account.
How to solve this issue?
Regards
SK

Hi Dinesh,
Since you have same Vendor for your both the company codes and you have different document types for both company codes and you are posting payment for company code com1 for this number range you have maintained as per document type number object, but you are using same vendor for both company codes so if maintain number range for same number object for company code com2, system will pick company code com1 number range at the time of postings through company code com1, so maintain same number range objects number range against company code com2 to avoid inconsistency.
As per your given example you can check by posting through company code com2 with document type ZZ.
