Missing numbers in Number Range

Hi all,
I have a requirement like this. When I do a standard process I need to generate batches depending on the cuts in the cable. I'm doing this using Number Range. After I get the batches I may save the document or may not save it. Suppose my first document generated batches 100,101,103,104. At the end if I dont save and exit for the next document the batches are coming as 105,106 ans so on. However since I didnt save earlier I need from 100. How can I do this?
Thanks&Regards,
Manjula.S

I don't think so. You have to understand that number ranges take care of concurrency. Hence you can have more application servers, more users running same program and SAP guarantees that you will get each number once. So generally implementing number range with possibility of returning number is really tricky thing and you have to be careful about concurrency. As I said, common approach how to avoid wasting numbers from number range is to use temporary numbers and during saving process replace these numbers by real numbers from number range.
Good luck

Missing orders in Number Range

Hi Friends,
We are facing an issue in our production systems where once in a while we find some orders missing in the number range provided. We have a custom report which tells us whenever a particular number on a sales document number range is skipped. Usually when this report identifies a missing order we will be able to find some error information from ST22 or SM13 logs and from that we identify the user who was trying to create this order and we contact them to re-enter the order. In most cases they are unaware that there has been an error since they get a success message when they save orders. But in some cases no information is available in these transactions and we are unable to identify who was creating this missing order and Business team fears that we are missing some legitimate orders which the customer thinks was created. I read thorugh lot of messages in the SDN forums and lot of similar issues were due to number range buffering but we do not have number range buffering set in our systems for sales documents. Have any of you faced this issue before and do you have a suggestion to prevent this?
Regards,
Praveen

Hi Praveen,
I remember that the module pool drwas a numer from the number range before the order is actually saved. If the creation process is cancelled, the number has been used.
You could try to check that by setting a break-point at function module NUMBER_GET_NEXT and then manually create an order, play around with the different tabs and views, create and delete items and check when the number is drawn.
If it is drawn as it should be in update task, you may find update fails in the update monitor and the users responsible should have received an express mail.

MB51- Missing sequent Doument number range.

Dear All,
Here when I execute transaction MB51,I am un able to get all MIGO (GR) Document in sequential, even though I have maintain input fields for MB51 only posting date from- to, but when I see MIGO documents in MB51few documents are missing. Where can we see those missing documents and why in between number ranges are missing?
Example :
MB51 number range(MIGO) showing like this 500000645 to 500000660 then, 500000667, 68,69, then 75. now i want to see missing number, where can i see and why it's happening like this.
Kindly advice me to get more things on this issue...
Thanks
Madhusudhan.B

For Eg..
Go to SNRo. choose overview.. YOu ll get a list. choose for eg AUFTRAg..THis is for production orders..
Double click .. you ll see No.Of numbers in the Buffer..It ll be set as 5 ,10 or 20..
If its 20 ,then 20 numbers will be thr in the bufer for assigning to the orders..
PLs check if its maintained...
At the time of server crash or something,This buffer would ve been reset...
That may be ur problem..
Please reset the value in the buffer as 10 or 20 and proceed ur GRs etc...

This because of the missing SD Document Number Range.
You can check this in tcode SNRO for object RV_BELEG.
Ask your SD Consultant to Change the number range assignment or create that missing 01 number range number object.
This will solve your problem,

Usage view: number range for buildings

Hi,
i'm trying to create buildings in usage view with external numbering in number range 0000 - ZZZZ. The numbering is based on an external system and can contain values e.g. 0010 or A001.
Seems that in standard solution the leading zeroes are disappearing e.g. 0010 becomes 10.
Is there any way to keep the leading zeroes in this field?
Thanks in advance!

HI Sonja,
you can ensure this by means of customizing: Master data -> Usage View -> General Settings... -> Suppress Leading Zeroes in Object Keys, make sure both checkboxs "BU No. ..." are not checked.

Internal HU number range for 2 different plants

Hi,
I have one plant with WM-HUM and internal number range for HU is 1.
Now implementation for a second plant (same controling area but different company codes), with his own WH number, is going to use WM-HUM.
I'm wondering what internal number range should be used for plant 2:
- same number range than P1 then no need to create new packaging material types. Just check if both plants accept to share numbers
- different number range to fastly identify which plant belongs to the HU number (without using HUMO)? But need to create new packaging material types.
Are there other SAP impacts of these solutions?
I have to precise there will be stock transport orders with deliveries between both plants.
Thank you.

Hello Cathy,
I would suggest to use the same number range considering the scenario you have mentioned .

Number Range Missing

Strange behavior is there in the system concerning the Number range as some Invoice Numbers are missing from the system for example after 111121..it is 111122..and then 111123, 24, 25 is missing then 26 is there and then 27 is missing and then 112228 is there, Buffer Management is not maintained for the SD Object RV_BELEG and no archiving also
Any Suggestions where to look into for this.

Hi
Goto VOFA for your billing document type and fetch number range assigned to that.
Goto SE11>Table TVFK>pass your number range fetched in above step as NUMKI and see which else document has assigned to it.
Pass same number to table TVAK to check whether sales order document has assigned to this number range.

ITSM: Cancelled Change Documents - Number range goes missing

Hi Experts, We create RFCs, Urgent, Normal, Admin changes. however when we "create change record/change doc" a number is assigned to the record/doc. Sometimes we cancel and come out of the Creation process and then again restart our process. This time the number assigned to the previous record is lost and then a new number is assigned to the new record. This way a lot of the numbers goes missing in the sequence when you do a full search of all records/docs. Is there a way to get over this issue? please advise.

Hi,
try with after unchecking the "early numbering assignment" option in your ztransaction types.

Number range interval for characteristic 0CSTELMNTYP is missing

All,
I'm moving the infoobject 0COSTELMNT, which has as a nav attribute 0CSTELMNTYP. The transport moved fine to my Q environment, but not to prod, The error was as above and
Number range interval for characteristic 0CSTELMNTYP is missing
Message no. BRAIN049
Diagnosis
The interval for number range object BIM0001194 of characteristic 0CSTELMNTYP is missing. The interval is created automatically, when you run the system in the BW clients.
Procedure
Execute the corresponding action again in the BW clients, so that the interval is created automatically. Then you can drag numbers for the characteristic 0CSTELMNTYP to other clients.
I don't understand this - what do I need to do?
Thanks.
Dave

Hi Kedar,
I got the same issue which you mentioned and i ran the program to activate the master data object and it went fine in Quality system. But the problem here is iam unable to see the attribute data in the master data info object.
For example i added ZCNTYCODE nav. attribute to 0VENDOR and moved to quality and i got the activation problem issue for 0VENDOR and i ran the program which you mentioned in Quality and the activation went fine.
When i loaded the data for 0VENDOR iam not able to see the ZCNTYCODE data in Vendor master data P table. And iam able to see the master data in the table which we get from source LFA1 and in RSA3 and also in the PSA. Can you or anyone faced this type of issue.
Thanks for you help in Advance.

Get the name of the number range object from the error message shown above, for example, RS_OBJNUMG. Start Transaction SNRO. To display the intervals, use the number range function key and enter the name of the number range object as the object name. Change the intervals. The following from-numbers and to-numbers apply:
- RS_OBJNUMG: 0000001 - 9999000
- RSDDAGCUBE: 100000 - 199999

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.

Number range object missing NRIV and cant activate IOBJ during import

Hi,
We have a number object RS_OBJNUMG in BW used for many infoobjects. However object doesnt exists in table NRIV and import for infoobjects are failing with error:
Interval 01 of number range RS_OBJNUMG is missing
message R7453
I thought that as when infoobjects are created they get automatically assigned to number range....
Can somebody help?
thanks

hi,
check if the similar problem

Number Range object skipping numbers SAP

Hi All,
Number Range object skipping numbers SAP "EINKBELEG" . While creating Purchase order with transaction code me21n, the purchase order is skipping odd numbers. I have checked the transaction code "SNRO" there is no buferring set on the object.
Please help

Are multiple users creating Purchase Orders at the same time?
If yes then this is possible. Because Number Range (unique Number) is assigned to Purchase Order at the start of the Transaction (ME21N).
Thus if multiple users are creating Purchase Orders at the same time & some of these users may have not saved the Purchase Order after partially creating it... This may lead to particular Number Range to be skipped as the following number is already assigned to some other Purchase Order.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Jignesh Mehta
