Sir,

I am also facing same issue. Can you simplify the answer. What is sample value to be written infield ILN Basic Number. It take any number and then given error number of character exceeds. You talked of XXXXXXX even that is leading to same error. Please simplify the answer.

I have fixed it myself.

Thanks for helping out.

The solution is:

Reduce the number assignment object. Eg: by default for a 7 digit ILN, CHAR9 domain will be assigned in the number range object LE_SSCC. So for a 8 digit ILN, CHAR8 domain should be assigned.

That does the trick.

Hi,

I see the question is already closed, anyway: check again before changing standard ILN from CHAR7 to something else.

By GS1 organization definition SSCC is 20 digit number:

00 - Aplication identifier

X - Extension digit (by changing from 0 to 9, company can extent the number range)

XXXXXXX - ILN (CHAR7)

XXXXXXXXX - Running number for handling unit (CHAR9)

X - check digit

Focus on extention digit and don't mess this one --> leave ILN as CHAR7.

Extension digit is setup in IMG as per packaging material (from 0 to 9) --> table TVTY, field SSCC18.

One more thing: if you don't see all numbers in SAP GUI handling unit field, check the table VEKP (HU header data) - there you will see a complete 20 digit SSCC in field EXIDV.
