I'm not quite if I understand, but if you have created a number range for the serial numbers (and used the correct Number range object), than you are done. Next time a serial number is created the system will check the next available number and use it from the number range you created.

Hi,

if var is not initial.
              call function 'NUMBER_GET_NEXT'
                exporting
                  nr_range_nr             = '01' 
                  object                  = 'ZGPNO'
                importing
                  number                  = gexno
                exceptions
                  interval_not_found      = 1
                  number_range_not_intern = 2
                  objec
                  t_not_found        = 3
                  quantity_is_0           = 4
                  quantity_is_not_1       = 5
                  interval_overflow       = 6
                  buffer_overflow         = 7
                  others                  = 8.
              if sy-subrc <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
              endif.
