Dear Friend,

There can be two reasons for the same:

1. Number range buffering, which is already suggested above. (But I dont think that would NOT be a reason because Invoice Number Ranges are generally not buffered. Also if there was buffer set then the said problem would occur very often)

2. Number Range Skipping: As per SAP Standard the Number Range (means the Number) is assigned to a Document at the start of transaction. Means if say the last Invoice created was 125 then when a user starts creating next Invoice t he system assigns it next number i.e. 126. Now it so happens that the first user has not save the Invoice & another user has started creating another Invoice. Thus number 127 is assigned to it.

It so happens that the first users has almost completed all the details on the Invoice, but decides not to save the Invoice & comes out of the Vf01 transaction (without saving the Invoice) & at the same time (or almost at the same time) the other user saves the Invoice. The system assigned 127 numbers & 126 number gets skipped.

I have faced the similar issue at my client & have raised this to SAP... I got the above answer...

Hope this clarifies...

This might be because of any Buffering. Please check this link on Bufferening for Number Ranges:

Please check T code SNRO - Number Ranges - Object RV_BELEG for SD Documents

Hi

Did you check that the invoice is not locked in SM12 due to any termination errors.
