• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 6P304 - Number of requested numbers must be greater than 1 ?

  The SAP error message 6P304 ("Number of requested numbers must be greater than 1") typically occurs in the context of number range management, particularly when you are trying to generate or request a number from a number range object, but the system expects a request for multiple numbers instead of just one.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when:
  
  You are trying to request a single number from a number range that is configured to require a request for multiple numbers.
  The configuration of the number range object specifies that the minimum number of numbers that can be requested is greater than one.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object that is causing the issue.
  Check the settings for the number range, specifically the "Number of Numbers" field. Ensure that it is set to allow requests for a single number if that is your intention.
  
  
  
  Request Multiple Numbers:
  
  If the configuration is correct and it is intended to request multiple numbers, modify your request to ask for more than one number. For example, if you are currently requesting 1 number, change it to request 2 or more.
  
  
  
  Review Custom Code:
  
  If you are using custom code or a custom program to request numbers, review the logic to ensure that it adheres to the number range requirements. Modify the code to request the appropriate number of numbers.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration or the requirements, consult the SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP Basis or functional team for assistance.
