Number ranges for billing documents

[Former Member]

Our client has got 130 plants (105 are depots and 25 manufacturing plants) ) from which sales transactions are handled.

There is a legal requirement that billing documents should have separate number ranges for a particular depot / plant. We have adopted the following method: -

- SAP standard number range object (transaction VN01),

- Customized table wherein we mapped billing document types, plant and number range object,

- User exit RV60AFZZ (Form Userexit_Number_range) to determine the number range during invoicing.

We have consumed almost all of the possible number range object combinations (starting from AA to ZZ and 01 to 99) due to the huge number of plants.

For the new depots, how to set up the number range objects for billing documents (example: is there any way by which this object can be made as three digits)?

With best regards,

Yes. We have already consumed these objects also. (Thanks for your immediate reply). Can you please give some suggestions?

We have not done such thing.

But you can change it from 2 digit to 3 digit using access key. Which should be the last option.

Look for option like creating customized number range object (instaed of using RV_BELEG which you are currently using). RV_BELEG is used for number ranges for Order, delivery in addition to billing. So the new number range object should also be able to provide number range for that.

Also try make the current number = 0 of "consumed" no range and then delete the number range and recreate it (using VN01 or SNRO object RV_BELEG)
