External Number Rane for Equipment using Serialization

Hi All,
I have following requirement.
I need to  give the external number range to equipment, at the same time this equipment is serialized. How can it be achieved?
Description: Materials are purchased and at the time of GR material is serialized. I dont want to use the internal number range for equipment, so I am not using equipment number range creation at the time of GR.
Also I can't use the change serial number & activate equipment funcationality. ie. IQ02. (Beacuse here again internal number range for equipment is used)
Sundar

Hi Pete,
I can use the external number range at the GR/GI if material serial number and equiment numbers are synchronus.
But in our case both serial number and equipment number are different.
How can I achieve external number range for equipment for the material and serial number which are already in store. I have to activate the equipement view after the GR for same serial number....OR.....I have to create the equipment seperatly with external number range with same serial number which is available in store.

  • The external number range for Equipment master

    Dear Experts,
    My client has requirement to use KKS code as Equipment number as they want to create Notification and Maintenance order using the KKS code.
    For example 10H, 10BEB, 20BHB04, 10LBG10AA001, 10HLA13AA001A, 10ETG10AN001-E  etc.
    All these KKS codes has different character length hence it's not fit in any number range.
    can anyone suggest the external number range that I can use for above requirement?
    Thanks.

    Parag,
    I have checked again. It is working correctly. Remember that the following setting the check box below the column A should be empty. This allows Alphanumeric characters in the numbers.
    SPRO Path to above setting
    My Equipment category of External Numbers is 'A'.

  • Alphnumeric External Number range for Equipment category

    Hi,
    Is there any other option that I can restrict length of external alpha numeric number range except that exit IEQM0003? This exit only applicable or restrict when you save the equipment.
    Requirement is like external number range should be like AAA-000 to ZZZ-999. System must not allowed any other equipment number which is out of this range. ( must be 7 character)
    As far as my understanding , system use string comparison once you use alphanumeric number range and you can create equipment with 18 char length except special character if above range is maintained.
    Please correct me if i am wrong and suggest.
    Thanks
    Anish Ahya

    Hi Zenith,
    Its not available in Standard SAP, please use the user exit and tell the ABAPER to check the Equipment numbering (count) before entering into Creation screen. In IE01,entering equipment Number, Category and date after completion of this activity when we enter continue icon there u can put a condition to check the length of equipment number. I implemented that user exit and i got the result. its working fine. User Exit: IEQM0003.

  • External number range for measuring point

    Hi experts,
    How to assign external number range for measuring point ?
    Regards
    Shashi

    I have just checked and the measurement point number is linked directly with tthe object for eaxample equipment and when I tried this I got the same result the system defaults the number based ont he internal number range.
    This being the case what is the business requirement that you need to use external numbering as this may help and someone may be able to assist either with an answer to the problem or an alternative solution.
    SAP documentation as follows:
    Create Number Ranges for Measuring Points
    In this step you define number ranges for measuring points.
    Notes
    As the numbers for measuring points are assigned internally, you should work with the standard settings. If you want to make changes, you should always use number range 01.

  • External Number Range for Invoice

    Hi All,
    If we  use USEREXIT_NUMBER_RANGE - RV60AFZZ to specify  external number then can we enter alpha-numeric or only numeric value.
    regards
    Debasish

    Debasish,
    Few things a wish to suggest you,
    1. SAP always says try to avoid External number ranges for invoices, as it has legal as well as technical compliances.
    2. By using user exit, even though you will enter the external numbers but in case of several and multi user systems there may be chances of inconsistencies.
    Anyway if you have decided to do this then Yes its possible you can use Alphanumeric numbers also
    Thanks,
    Raja

  • External number range for service items?

    I want to create Purchase order with services using BAPI. Is it possible to set external number range for the extrow / introw, so that if I need to change a service line item, I will be able to find out which service item needs to be changed.

    It depends on whether you have a service master or not.
    1. If you have service master, then there will be a service number (just like a material number). You can use that identify which one has to be deleted.
    2. If NOT, then they would still send the text for the Service lines (I guess this will be unique for each line item). So, you will have to identify the line to be deleted by that.
    Makes sense?
    A question - You are saying you will get information to update the PO, but how does the system know which PO to be updated, how are you going to identify which PO needs to be changed?

    Ravi

    I think the similar requirement is in Venezuela also.
    So pl. check the SAP Note 849438 . As per the note :-
    The solution is delivered in the indicated support packages. In case you can not implement the correspondin support package for your release immediately, please follow the procedure described below:
    1. In the Data Dictionary Editor (transaction SE11) please open the definition of domain J_1AOFFNREL, go to the fixed values and add value 'P' with description 'Number Assingment using Prenumbered Forms' in a position so that the possible values remain sorted alphabetically.
    2. In the Message Editor (transaction SE91) please go to message class ICC_CN and add the new message 837 with text '&1: Official doc. numbering is not available for delivery documents!'.
    3. If you are implementing the note in release 4.6C, please create the following function modules:
    o     OFF_NUMBER_LOCAL_ASSIGN_VE in function group FIN2, and then copy the interface (all parameters and exceptions) of the function module OFF_NUMBER_LOCAL_ASSIGN_TW

After the installation of the corresponding support package the customizing node for Venezuela can be used.
    1. Enable the use of business place for country Venezuela as described in the OSS Note 726537.
    2. Define the necessary document classes and configure the document types you would like to get an official document number as relevant for official document numbering in the desired mode. Please check the OSS Note 571376 for some explanations about the meaning of the different settings.
    3. Define the necessary number ranges and intervals and assign them to the combination of company code, business place, document class and validity period. If you use the customizing activity for Taiwan, then please leave the prefix field empty.

  • External number range for Sales Document

    hi,
        I have a requirement to generate external number range for sales document. I tried this user exit (MV45AFZZ) to generate external number.
    FORM USEREXIT_NUMBER_RANGE USING US_RANGE_INTERN.
    Endform.
    between these form and enform i written my logic and passing to US_RANGE_INTERN. But can one suggest where to write to generate external number range.
    Can any one help me out.
    Thanks and regards,
    Vijay.

    Hi
    Here you can assign a different number range for your sales order.
    The number range is linked to the order type (field VBAK-AUART), this link is done in customizing.
    It usually uses this routine if it can't assign the range in customzing because (for example) for different sales area it need have different number ranges for the same order type.
    So you should create an external range by trx SNRO and then assign the number before entering in the main screen of va01 or saving the document.
    When you need to assign the number depends on how you want to manage your range.
    If you assign the number in entering you has to make sure to not assign the same number document to severals order to be created in the same time by several useers.
