Can I generate Number Range Type automatically?

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,

is it possible to generate number range automatically, instead of using transaction 'snro'?

Here 'automatically' means to call certain FM.

Thanks in advace!

No, I mean I want to create a Number Range Object, not the next number.

Hi,

Unless you create a object in SNRO you cannot use the function module NUMBER_GET_NEXT to get the next serial number. If you are talking about this, an object in SNRO is mandatory and you can use the function in your program to get the next number.

If you want to generate your own serial number, you need to keep track of what was the last number, interval, min and max numbers etc.

Hi,

If you want to do all this by yoruself, then I guess you will have to build your own custom tables as well the code for that.

I don't think there are any functions that SAP Provides for the same.

Hi,

I found FMs:

NUMBER_RANGE_OBJECT_MAINTAIN

NUMBER_RANGE_OBJECT_READ

are they correct ones,somehow?

and also

NUMBER_RANGE_OBJECT_INIT

[Former Member]

The problem is, this function NUMBER_RANGE_OBJECT_MAINTAIN also is capable of maintaining the number range object is a dialog program, so throws the screens where in the user can edit the data of a specific number.

It still doesn't create a number range.

NUMBER_RANGE_OBJECT_READ - just gets you the details of the object.

Look at the documentation, they are very clear

NUMBER_RANGE_OBJECT_INIT - This just intializes the memory of the project.

HI,

Create a Number range Object in <b>SNRO</b> t.code.

Use the Function module <b>'NUMBER_GET_NEXT'</b> to get the next number.

  CALL FUNCTION 'NUMBER_GET_NEXT'
    EXPORTING
      nr_range_nr = '01'
      object      = <No range object which you created in SNRO>
    IMPORTING
      number      = <you will get the next no here>.

Thanks
