OMX4 - FBN1 - Number range for Material document and FI document
47 - is for FI document number range in Material ledger FBN1. OMX4 gives number range for Material document. My question is how big the number range must be? Since thousands of Materials involved, I couldn't imagin this?
Anybody knows, how to determine the size of no. ranges in Material Ledger configuration? SAP simply says, check no. ranges whether it meets the requirement....
I don't expect an answer again, just check your business, how many transactions would be in a period, which is not quantifiable now?
I would like to understand this from somebody's experience of using insufficient or excessive no. ranges, especially in this area.
Cheers,
Ashok
What is the number range you are using? Year Dependent or Independent?
When you don't know the document number consumption pattern you should use Year dependent number range in both OMX4 & FBN1. Observing this for a month will give a rough Idea and observing for a Quarter will give you a fair Idea and the result for a year gives almost near to accurate consumption of number ranges.
The generation of documents is dependent on the number of materials and Profit centers involved. As much as possibe use Summarization at profit center level when posting to FI. This will reduce the number of documents and line items that are getting generated.

Number range for material documents
Hi SAP Gurus,
Can anyone please advise if we can reset number range for material documents once it reached to last number for existing number range ?
Thanks & Regards,
ManojHi,
If material numbering reached to last number for existing number range, you can create Number Range Text Group and assign to your material type in following path
IMG -> Logistic ->General -> Material Master ->Basic Settings ->Material Type ->Define Number Range for each Material Type
OR
T.code:MMNR
Lets example you have now:
Number Range Text Group:01
From Number: 1
To Number :19999999
Now you can create Now One Number Range Text Group
Number Range Text Group:02
From Number:20000000
To Number :29999999
Now assign Number Range Text Group to your material type in MMNR , {{by clicking group in menu, select maintaion->group->insert
Number Range Text Group:02
From Number:20000000
To Number :29999999
and save}}.

"Alphanumeric" number ranges for material matser
Hi all,
What are the sequence of steps needed to create "Alphanumeric" number ranges for material matser. Can anyone explain me the steps.
ThanksHi,
To add to what Sridhar has said ....we have got 2 number ranges only...
either internal or extenal.....
Better idea is to have internal only untill or unless it is at all required so.
It all depends on material type....
In internal it is more easy to maintain the ranges....but in case of extenal....lot more precaution is required.
Award if any thing answer you query .
Thanks

Number ranges for material document (migo) and inventory documents
Hi Gurus,
We need a different number ranges for goods receipt documents and inventory documents because we have different company merged in to one box.Can any body tell me on what basis we differenciate the number ranges how to configure it.
If we take PO, we have different doc types and we assign number ranges to those documents. in case of Miro , it is the single transaction code used by different companies and how to give different number ranges.
Regards,
Sri........Hi,
I think number ranges of inventory documents are on client level not on company code wise . because even though your creating new document and assigned different number ranges for the documents but these while assigning ranges to T codes (MIGO or MIRO) you dont have option like company codes ( tcode OMBA) so number ranges for inventory documents are at client level not at company code level. -
External number range for material master
Dear sap guru i want to create external number range for msterial master but i am facing problem .i used T.code MMNR but i am not able to tick external number small squar window . can anybody help me and tell me step by step
regards
rohitHi
In tcde MMNR select groups in the application tool bar a pencil like icon click that
Then go to group in the top menu bar
In that if you choose insert
Then a dialogue box will open
In that give text and
there will be two lines
First is for internal no range
second is for external no range with the check box ticked in grey
In that you have to choose the second one and give only the range interval
External tick is already there ready made in the system
If you are sure that your settings are correct in MMNR
IMG-L.G-MATERIAL MASTER-BASIC SETTINGS-MATERIAL TYPE---DEFINE ATTRIBUTES OF MATERIAL TYPES
in this choose your material type and click on its details
in the general data tab there is a external no assignmentw/o check a check box is there
Pls tick that and try to do your process by giving external no

Material Document Number range for 2011
Hi,
As per standard practice we need to reset the number range for material document for calendar year 2011. New Number range will be effective from 01.01.2011. Please let me know the below -
1. Step by step process for Number range assignment for Material document (GR / GR / Transfer posting) for 2011
2. Can we define Material document number rage financial year wise (Apr to Mar) like other FI documents number range? This issue is raised by finance dept. IF yes what will be the process?
At present Number range assignment for our company is showing Year as 9999, from number 5000000000 and to number 5000000000
Whether it is mendatory to re-ser number range.
Thanks,
Ranjan Kumar
Edited by: Ranjan.pearl on Dec 29, 2010 2:51 PMNumber 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. -

What do you mean by same number range?
As for as i know number ranges are application specific so you cannot have both SD and FI documents in a same number range.
What you can do with userexits is to assign a number range based on a condition. For example Plant based Billing number range, even you cannot have same number range for Sales order and billing.

External number range for GR document
Hello,
1. Is it technically possible to create external number range for GR document (material document) - Note, PO is also having ext number range
2. Is it adviseable to create ext num range for material docs?
Thanks
Regardshi,
1. it is possible to create external number ranges for GR document.
in spro config settings: use transaction OMBT and in that enter a number range and check that external number range check box.
2. it is not advisable to have external number range for material docs --> because for every movement of the material end user has to giva an entry for material document.
hope this may help you,

Separate number ranges for GR against PO and GR against Production Order
All SAP Gurus,
Is it possible to have Separate number ranges (for Material Documents as well as for FI Documents) for GR against PO and for GR against Production Order?
Regards,Hello Anusha,
Basically you need to maintain the confirmation control key in the Info record or the vendor master in order get the option of doing an inbound delivery and not a rough GR. in info record in purchasing screen and also the same screen in vendor master.
The above is a permanent setting for a vendor, if you want to do it temporarily, you need to go to the confirmations tab in PO item details and change the control key in there.
I hope this is what you are looking for

Hi
I wanted to define 3 plants in SAP. Can we have separate number ranges for Purchase order and GRN as plant specific. PLs let me know if it is possible through user exits. This number range i wanted to define year specific.
I have searched for the user exits,but couldn't find any. Pls helpHi,
Separate number ranges for Purchase order is possible if you have separate PO Document type which represents different procurement processes.
As needed by you ,can control form basis side( by having authorization matrix) for specific PO creation with specific PO document type with a specific plant. For example:
You have PO document types: NB, ZNB, YNB, FO,UB,ZSNB
You have three plants... P101, P102 and P103
From basis side( by having authorization matrix) allow users to create
1. To Create PO with ZNB ,YNB and ZNB PO types for Plant P101
2. To Create PO with FO and ZSNB PO types for Plant P102
3. To Create PO with UB PO types for Plant P103
Also you can configure PO number range W.R.T. Company Code by User Exit,check User Exit M06B0003 & M06B0004.
For having number range for GR which is WE for year specific, check link:

Sync of Material document and accounting document during MIGO
Hi Friends,
Can we synchronize the Document numbers between Material document (WE) for GR (101) and Accounting documents created for the MIGO transaction????
We have 50 is assigned to WE. But, we have a gap in numbers of Material document number and Accounting document numbers??? though the document type WE is common for both.
I have seen that "Buffer" is the culprit. But, not sure how to fix that.
Appreciate your help in this regard.
Dev.When the document type is same (WE) for both, how come the accounting doc has continuous numbers and Material doc has breaks ( from buffer)????
document type WE is same for GR for material document and accounting docu but number range are stored diffrentely.
OMBT is where u store the number range for material document
and this number range is assigned to group of materia doc we wf wo ww
OMBA is where u create diffrent number range for accounting document hear U assign WE to ur transaction code and in turn WE is assigned a number range what is created in OMBA, this number range is nothing to do with number range u have created in OMBT.
when ever u post the docunemt in system
SAp hav efixed the document type for GR that is WE
it goes in OMBA in the group of Material documents for goods receipts
check what is the year and number range assigned and current number so it assignes this number first
than it go to OMBA cheks what is the Tcode u are using and what is document type u have assigned to that tcode and it can be any WE or what ever u have assigned to that tcode
taking that doc type it goes and see what Number range is assigned say 50 and then checks company code and year for this 50 and get the number for accounting doc
so i think its is clear that material and account are 2 diffrent ranges
skiping of numbers might be due to buffer
also go throught following post it will be helpfull
GR NO SEQUENCE - MISMATCH
hope this helps
