BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE Message

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am attempting to post a PM using BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE. I have been able to do this successfully but now I am getting a Message returned to me from the BAPI of Type E which states "External number assignment, please enter notification number". Could somebody please explain to me what this message means?

Thanks,

John.

Are you attempting to create a notification with a type that uses an external number range assignment?

I don't believe I am. As I say, I have recently run a test using the same data as I am using now which was successful. However, now today with this same data it is unsuccessful and returning this message. It doesn't make any sense to me.

What is the notification type you are using?

And is there a long text for the message?

Notification type is M5.

There is a long text.

Does the long text help?

It is probably not necessary. I have just removed it but I am still getting the error message.

Hello John,

have you checked the no. range assinment of the notification type (transaction SNUM - No. range object QMEL_NR)?

Have you tried to create a notification of this type manually? If so, have you got the same error message?

Best regards

Stephan,

I have just discovered that somebody was doing some tests and they changed the number ranges. Now they have reset them back the way they were and every thing is working OK again.

Thank you for your time,

John
