• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 6D024 - The system could not determine a number ?

  The SAP error message 6D024 ("The system could not determine a number") typically occurs in scenarios where the system is unable to generate or retrieve a number for a specific document or transaction. This can happen in various modules, such as when creating invoices, purchase orders, or other documents that require a unique number assignment.
