  The SAP error message "61513 Number range &1 for object &2 nearly exhausted" indicates that a specific number range for a particular object is close to being fully utilized.

  Cause:
  
  Exhaustion of Number Range: The number range defined for the specified object has been nearly exhausted, meaning that there are very few numbers left to assign.
