Material doument number range

Hi All
in our SAP system we have 2 company codes but material doument number range is same for both the company codes . how to set it at company code specific and / or Plant specific?
I have checked with T code OBH1 but it is related to FI doc types only. I need number range for material doument not for FI documents.
As per requirement from client - it is needed for easy traceability and audit purpose.
Is there user exit available for this ?
I dont understand why SAP has not provided this as a standard . Because practically every company or even plant needs different number range , for easy traceability and if any audit will go on auditor will like to see documents in sequence .
Hope u understand the issue .
Bhushan
Note : I have posted the similar query earlier but there was not much satisfactory replies. and some one has posted reply to check with T code OBH1 . But its not useful

Hi,,
GR document Number ranges are Clent specific and Yearly we need to maitain.
As per the standard SAP is concern we can't go for Company code specific.
But in many big client like ABB they have gone with a big development for this activities.
so convince the Client for the feasibility and extra cost invoilvement in the Making this big development using ABAP, and some Userexits.
We can't make any alternative solution using SAP standard settings for this requirements

Currently as per standard, system deriving the unique number series for intercompany and third party goods issue since th event type is WL.
Kindly provide your inputs on how we can differentiate the number ranges.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You could try to make it through the transaction code following the process as below:
First u need to create seperate document type in OMR4 or OBF4, then create a new number range in OMBT assign your new number range to new created document type then in T. code OMBA assign new created document type to the transaction code so whenever u will create document with this Transaction code u can get new number range.
I hope this helps!

Material document number range to matchthe accounting doucment number range

Hi all,
SRM 5.0 ECS.
We have a reqt to match the material document number range and the accounting doucment number range for goods receipts in ECC ...Is this possible???If so,how??
Thanks.

It may not workout .
Material document number range configuration should be unique other wise lot of confusion.
since material docuemnt and account documents uniquely identified by Year and Number.
some times one material number and two accounting documents can be created while doing good receipt.

Whether it is mendatory to re-ser number range.
Thanks,
Ranjan Kumar

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.

Material Master Number Range - Very Urgent

Hi ,
My client is having existing material codification as below :
all material types for e.g. ROH, HALB, FERT will be starting their material code with 00 or 01 or 02 etc. sine the first two digits denotes the year , which will vary from material to material. The characters used will be from minimum 8 to maximum 14 - Alphanumeric.
for e.g. my material code will be
for ROH - 000040101F0101
for FERT - 00801000101
for HALB - 013000101C
here for all materail type first 2 digit are for year and next will be prod. code , then assy , then sub assy , if forging applicable it will be F , if casting then - C
How this can be mapped in SAP as one series for all material types, is it possible for system to identify the material type, what is advantage & disadvantage of the same.
Pl. help
Thanks & Regards,
Vikas Mayekar.

Hi
Using Standard SAP for Material number ranges may not be able to map your requiremnts.
But you can use the SAP enhancements available for the Number ranges determination & so onj...
Please use the User exit in CMOD or SMOD
You can use enhancement MGA00002 (for industry) or enhancement MGW00002 (for retail) for this.
For more information, see the documentation for the following components assigned to these enhancements:
Industry

Material type number range question

I want to have an interval for which I could have external naming both for numbers and for letters. I want to have the option to name the material eg 111111111 or aabbccddg or aa11bb11nnn.
I have created a group, I have a for external numbering - from 00000000001 to 9999999999, but I cannot create another line for 00000000000a to zzzzzzzzzzz.
How can I do it??
Is it possible?
Thank you

Dear,
Go to transaction code MMNR create number range depends on ur material type.
Enter the number range AAAA0000 - Z9999999.
And select the External number range flag.
path: img>log general>material master>basic setting>material types>define number range for material types
For Internal Number range Standard SAP does not support for maintaining "Alphanumeric" number range. For that please consult to the ABAPu2019r.
Internal number assignment:
If your company uses nonmnemonic keys, you do not enter a material number when creating a material master record. Instead, the system assigns a consecutive number to the material. This number is visible when you maintain the material master record.
Further options are provided by the following SAP Enhancements:
SAP Enhancement MGA00002
This enhancement contains three customer exits that you can use for the following purposes:
To modify material numbers entered externally by users, for example, by appending a check digit. To assign material numbers internally by customer programs
SAP Enhancement MGA00003
This enhancement allows you to edit the display of material numbers as required. For example, a material is assigned the number 123.
With this enhancement, you can define that the material number is displayed with, for example, the prefix MAT-, even though the number in the database is still 123.
I hope it will work for you.

Material Master number range

Hi Gurus,
In the our system, following number ranges are set for material master,
1 - 820000     to 899999     Current number 896492 (internal)
2 - 900000     to 979999
3 - 980000 to 999999
The number range 1 is going to complete.
As the next numbers after 899999 is already in use for different material type, I will not be able to extend the material number range 1.
What should I do,
Should I create altogether new number range and assign to this material type?
- Will system allow me to add another new number range along with existing number range or I need to remove the existing number range and attach new number range. (not yet tried. based on your feed back will try)
- If system allow to add the new number range along with existing, will system understand after reaching last number, it will go to next number range and start from there.
Kindly guide me.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Mohan

Hi,
then just delete the number range from the group and add a new one.
Use the delete icon with the red line to delete the number range from the group.
You have to change the status to 0 first
To quote the SAP help
1. Branch to number status maintenance.
2. Set the number status to '0'.
3. Branch to interval maintenance.
4. Delete the interval.
Then you can add a new interval

Material Master Number range Problem

Hi Experts,
There is a Group 1 which has ROH assigned...then i changed the assignment,assigned ROH to a
Group 2.
Recently Material Type config was done in different R/3 system and transported to our R/3 system.I did had a look in the TR it had only material type releavnt changes like Authorisation group and S.ref material type (T134 and T134T)
But as a result ROH got reallocated to Group1 as initial.
I had checked the log in MMNR the log shows me the assignment ROH to a Group 2 which i have done as the last change.
No Clue what could have happened,If any one have some idea pls do let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Ratha

Hi Dheeraj
I did found a root cause of the problem.
In Mat.type configuration there is number range code(NRC) 01,02,03 getting recorded.
In our system NRC for ROH was 01,but in other R/3 system NRC for ROH was 02
And when TR came from diff R/3 system our NRC was over written to 02.

Ratha
