• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 1E017 - The number issued is the last in number range & ?

  The SAP error message 1E017 indicates that the number you are trying to use has reached the end of the defined number range for a particular object. This typically occurs when you are trying to create a new document (like a sales order, purchase order, etc.) and the system has exhausted the available numbers in the specified number range.
  Cause:
  
  Exhausted Number Range: The number range for the object has been completely used up. This can happen if the number range is not large enough to accommodate the volume of documents being created.
  Configuration Issues: The number range may not be properly configured or may not have been extended to allow for more numbers.
  Number Range Assignment: The number range assigned to the document type may not be correctly set up in the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Extend the Number Range:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object for the document type you are working with.
  Check the current number range intervals and extend them if necessary. You can add new intervals to allow for more numbers.
  
  
  
  Create New Number Range:
  
  If the existing number range is not sufficient, you can create a new number range and assign it to the relevant document type.
  This can be done in the transaction code SNRO or OBA7 (for financial documents).
  
  
  
  Check Number Range Assignment:
  
  Ensure that the document type is correctly assigned to the number range in the configuration settings. This can be checked in the relevant customizing transaction (e.g., for sales orders, use OVAK).
  
  
  
  Consult with Basis or SAP Support:
