Number Range Issue

[former_member594288]

Hi,

When i execute the function module NUMBER_GET_NEXT for the external number range of a business partner i am getting the error "Specify an internal interval". If it is the wrong approach to get the number range value of external number range. Please suggest me how can i get.

The function module is only for internal number ranges. Perhaps you should re-read the definitions of internal and external number ranges.

Hello ravi_sdn

matthew.billingham response is probably correct.

However if you really work with external number ranges, then you should use the function NUMBER_CHECK to check if a number is within an external number range. The function is well documented.

Also notice, that in case of external number ranges you don't draw a number from the range. You only check if a user provided number is within the number range. That's is the purpose of external number ranges.

Best regards
