hi

number range is defined in spro.

there can be internal number range or external number range

internal number range say for equipments means when u create a n equipment u need not give equipment system will automatically assign next available number from the defined range and u cannot skip it.

external number means u can assign no externally from the defined range.

Hi,

Please check the TCode SNRO, and see whether it is buffered or not? If it is buffered there is a possibility of skipping the sequence of numbers.

Thanks,

Hi Jamnun,

A number range (created from transaction SNRO) is used to determine the next running number in a defined sequence. For example, a purchase order has a number range assigned, hence everytime you create a purchase order, a number automatically gets assigned. This number is determined from the number range.

Number ranges skip because of the buffering defined for the number range. You can confirm the buffering set up from transaction SNRO once you know which number range you are dealing with.

If you are generating the next number yourself in a custom program using the function module NUMBER_GET_NEXT then to prevent skipping of number range due to buffer, pass

X to the IGNORE_BUFFER import parameter.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Aditya
