General Task List Number Restriction

[syed_yousuf]

Hi,

Can we restrict the first two charactors of the number range to Alphabet only for General Task List ? I have defined the number range as AAAAAAA0 to ZZ999999.

With this number range we can create B1, D1, K9 etc, But, I need the first two characters to be restricted to alphabets only (for ex, UK, DK, AC etc.,) instead of combination of numeric and alphabets.

Please let me know how to meet this requirement. Thank you.

Hi;

You can try with writing small ABAP program with external no range assignment. This program would automatically decide and propose the numbers as per required logic you mentioned.

Hi Avinash,

I guess this can be done with a program development, however, I am looking in standard functionality in configuration or any other changes.

Hi;

In this case create new internal no range like From AAXXXXX To AAXXXXX. This will give you the expected results.

Hi Avinash,

I tried with above number range as well, but it is not restricting the first two charaters to alphabets oly  (for ex. DK123 or UK342 or AB34) it is allowing first two letters for AA (ex.AA1, AA5 or A1 or A4 etc). The requirement is first two characters should be alphabets only and rest of the characters can be mix up of both.
