whenever u create any org structure system always asks you wheather you want to maintain the same number range as the source object or do u want to maintain different mumber range. If u want to maintain the same No range as the source then the above message indicates that and u have to press "yes".

REad carefully the info coming along with this message.

IF you transport number ranges, then you overwrite existing number ranges in your production system. you transport the e.g. the current number from your development system into production and overwrite there the current number.

As you usually produce less data in Development system than in a production system, the current number will be smaller after the transport, and SAP would then try to create data using the next number, which leads to a dump as thereis already a record in the database having this number.

so you should only transport number ranges if you do not effect existing number ranges in your production system.

Do you really want to transport number ranges?

No.

You should maintain number ranges manually in production client.

Hello Sasi nagireddy

If you want same number ranges of copied plant then click on yes otherwise No.

Then you have to create a new number ranges for the new plant for e.g. for PO, contract, GRV etc.
