External number ranges in asset accounting

Hi All
Why we need to select external number range for asset accounting number ranges why not other sub modules?
useful answers will be rewarded with points
Regards
Prasad

hi hariprasad,
you only have to do that for depreciation posting. the reason for that is the way the program which posts the depreciation is designed. it creates a batch input with the opstings adding the doucment numbers as well and saving these document numbers into a table. when you want to post the depreciation for next month (period), first it will check if documents are already posted for previous period (or forgotten there in the batch input session). this is only valid before 4.7 (or 5.0?), from that release depreciation is also posted with internal numbered documents.
hope this helps

Change from Internal to External Number range for customer account group

Hi,
We would like to change the number range assignment for a customer account group from internal to external. The external number range assignment check box is greyed out as a few numbers in the range have already been used up. We want to do the internal to external assignemnt change, create a customer of a specific number, and revert the range back to internal assignment. Is this possible?
Appreciate your help.
Ram

Hi,
Please do the below steps:-
(1) Go to XDN1 and click on "Maintain status" button. Note down the current status and change the status to zero. Save.
(2) Again go to SDN1 and click on "Maintain No. Range" button, and change the no. range to external. Save. (if that number range is maintained for multiple years, then make it external for the first yer and for the subsequent years, it will become automatically.)
(3) Then create your customer with specific number.
(4) Then go to XDN1 and click on "Maintain No. Range" button, and change the no. range to internal. Save. (if that number range is maintained for multiple years, then make it internal for the first yer and for the subsequent years, it will become automatically.)
(5) Again go to XDN1 and click on "Maintain status" button. Maintain the current status as the number noted down in step (1) above. Save. (In case number created in step (4) is greater than the number notes in step (1), maintain the number of step (4) in current status.)

Overlapping Number Ranges for GL Accounts - does this allow duplicates?

Hi there,.
I am just-trying to understand GL numbering ranges.
If I create two GL account groups with overlapping number ranges, what (if anything), is stopping me from creating two GL accounts with identical numbers.
When l try to do this in fs00 I get a message telling me that the account already exists in the company code. Surely having the concept of an account group with overlapping number ranges implies that the account group forms part of the GL account's unique key and therefore allows duplicate GL account numbers.
Or does overlapping mean the ranges ovelap but the GL account numbers have to be unique?
Confused
Gerald.

Hi,
Since a chart of accounts contains many different types of accounts, they can
be grouped into different account groups. Usually, one account group groups
accounts with the same tasks within the general ledger, for example, cash accounts,
material accounts, asset accounts, profit and loss statement accounts, and so on.
By assigning a number range to an account group, you can ensure that accounts
of the same type are within the same number range. Number intervals for G/L
account master records can overlap.
You must enter the account group in the chart of accounts segment; it controls the
appearance of the company code segment of a G/L account. For example, for all
of your cash accounts, you want to be able to display all of the line items. In
Customizing, you therefore alter the field status for your Cash Accounts account
group to make line item display a required entry field.

Not able to created Number Ranges for Asset Classes in AS08

Dear Friends,
I am not able create Number Ranges for Asset Classes in AS08.
It is giving me an error message as company code does not exist.
When I Check Consistency under path SPRO -> Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Preparing for Production Startup -> Check Consistency -> Overview Report: Company Codes. I am getting the following
RSOL Reliance Sealink One PLtd
CoCode no. alloc.    NKTR
Fiscal Year Variant V3   Apr.- March, 4 special periods

> Number range &1 in co.code &2 for doc.type &3 must be defined as internal

If you see the above first two line you will find the difference is that Company code RSOL in the first line and NKTR company code in the second line.
Actually CoCode no. alloc. has been wrongly copied as NKTR while copying CoCode it should be RSOL and not NKTR.
I think because of this wrong allocation it is giving me an error in AS08. Also it is not showing me CoCode in drop down list in AS08.
Please help me to resolve the problem.
Thanks

Look in TC OAOB if the company code is assigned to a chart of depreciation

SD - Billing - External Number Range

Hi,
I have two questions related to SD billing document numbering:-
1. I am getting error message of [Please specify an internal number range Message no. NR752] while saving a billing document based on the delivery. I have checked only external number range box in VN01. Do I need to use any user-exit for this? If yes then there are 2 user exits available -
a) USEREXIT_NUMBER_RANGE_INV_DATE USING US_RANGE_INTERN in program RV60AFZC
                          b) FORM USEREXIT_NUMBER_RANGE USING US_RANGE_INTERN in program RV60AFZZ
but both the cases the variable is US_RANGE_INTERN which is not allowing external number range ID to pass. How this external no range works.?
2. I have a business requirement for our Mexican company code on external alphanumeric number. There would be 3 billing types say, ZF2, YF2 and ZYF2. Mexican government provides Invoice numbers in advance.
ZF2 Number range would be A001 to A999
YF2 Number range would be B001 to B999
ZYF2 Number range would be C001 to C999.
All these Invoices would be created at same time. i.e. parallel processing. Also all these invoices would be transmitted thru EDI -IDOC. And accounting document should have same number as billing document will carry i.e. external govt provided numbers.
How do I map this in systems. My experience says alphanumeric number range is not supported by SAP. Anybody may share his solution on this would be simply great.
Thanks

How to change internal number range into external number range

Hi All,
There is a number range in the system which was assigned internally by mistake earlier. Now, I want to change the internally assigned number range to external number range.
Can anyone please let me know, the procedure to change used number range from internal number range to external number range and from external number range to internal number range.
Quick reply will be appreciated & points will be assigned.
Thanks & Regards,

hi Mehak,
you can try to simply change the range from ext to int (and vica versa). If that does not wrok, than you can delete the range and recreate it with proper settings. But you have to take into account that if you have a range as external from 1 to 10 and for example numbers 2 and 5 are taken already than you recreate the range 1..10 as internal, than you could have some problems. Probably best is in this case to recreate with other interval.
hope this helps

Depreciation external number range

Hi,
I am having one doubt:
the depreciation posting always happens with external document number range If the external no range tick is not clicked then the system should take the internal number range.
But if the check is not ticked then the system is not taking internal number range although it is asking for the number range to be external.
I just want to ask is there any other setting which defines that depreciation should be posted with external number range.
Regards,
Meenakshi

In earlier version i.e prior to ecc 6.0 the asset depreciation document type number range was external. There is no special settings required , since it is standard procedure.
However from ECC 6.00 you need not define the document type to be external.

Sd invoices posting with External number range

Hi,
i am a fico consultant and dont know the proceedure that how to post SD invoice thorugh Sales orders with external number range?
while posting it is giving error like use internal number range.how to over come this.help me
Thanks
Prathima

Good Afternoon Prathima.
Use tcode OBA7
Look for Doc type RV Billing Doc trn.
This doc is generally used for posting Billing doc to accounting.
Here you would find Number range as external.
Reason: As per standard, the Accounting doc number is similar to your the Billing account.So, that there would not be any difference in numbers of both, therefore for accounting doc - Billing doc trnsfer (RV) the number range is Internal number but the Billing doc type will havre internal number range.
And as you are FI consultant, I don't feel I need to explain why or purpose these numbers should be similar from accounting point of view.
Hope it solved your query. Kindly reward.
Take care. JP.

2 external number range for vendor

Hello,
I am facing a problem when I try to replicate vendor from R/3.
I have 2 external vendor number ranges maintained in SRM, But only the last created external number range is taken into account when i replicate vendors from R/3.
Please could you tell me how can I maintain 2 external number ranges in SRM?
This is very urgent, I need to replicate vendors from R/3.
SRM 4.0 Extended Classic scenario.
Regards,
Shaiek

Hi Lina
You will have to combine all number ranges in R/3 and create one number range in SRM, if you want to retain the R/3 numbers.
e.g. If your R/3 number ranges are
100000 - 200000
600000 - 699999
In SRM, you need 100000-699999 as the external number range.
At any point of time, you can make only one no. range as default in SRM.
Best regards
Ramki

External number range for Int Orders

We want to define statistical internal orders employee-wise. For each employee, we want to define statistical internal orders with the same employee number for monitoring the low-valued assets given to them.
My query is can we have external number range assignment for intrnal order type for this purpose ?

Hi Niki
The common practice is to Define the IO as the Employee No with a prefix of E.. It helps you to search the IOs easily as E*
If the employee is also given a Mobile phone, Vehicle, laptop etc and you wanna track all of them and book all such relevant expenses in the same IO, then use exit COOPA003.. You can add Z fields in the IO Master for Mobile, Laptop No, Vehicle no etc
You can also ask your ABAP team to create a search help (F4 help) based on these fields so that you can search the IO based on mobile no etc

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.

Creation of HU in auto mode with external number range

Dear Experts,
         I'm stucking in a scenario related to HUM
There are two handling units -
1. Bag
2. Pallet
through T code HU02 , it's possible to create an HU and assign it internal generated number.
But as per our requirement , we want to assign the external number to the HU (which is barcode number of bag or pallet)
Can you pls let me know the process of assigning External number range to HU.
Also we want to create the HU automatically after GR in production (MIGO,101) , instead of manually via HU02.
Pls explin the process of creation of HU automatically also...
Thanks in advance..

Check with FM BAPI_HU_PACK.For packing an item into HU.
For external number range you need configure external number range
SPRO>Logistics - General>Handling Unit Management>Basics>Technical Basics-->Define Number Ranges for Handling Units.
After GR for production you need to confighre internal number range for perticular packing material type then system will automatically pack and place in HU location.

External number range for purchase order response?

Hi all,
is it possible to use an external number range when creating purchase order responses (BUS2209, PCO, POR) manually?
If I transfer the POR from an external system like SUS via XML, can I use an external number range?
I'm using SRM 4.0 (EBP 5.0) in standalone scenario with Business Connector 4.7 as XML interface.
Any help is appreciated,
Karsten

Hi
No need to maintian Internal number range.. Yes you need to use an external number range
Only the PO, RQ & RS are sync and therefore must correspond with the R/3 number ranges.
The rest, Shop Cart (SC), Local PO (EBP), Confirmation, Invoice, Bid Inv and Bid, aren't synced and can be assigned to any number range. (FYI- using ECS)
