  The SAP error message 88250 indicates that there is an issue with the number range definition for a specific filter type. This error typically arises when the system is unable to find a valid number range for the specified filter type, which can prevent the creation of new entries or documents that rely on that number range.
  Cause:
  
  Incomplete Number Range Definition: The number range for the specified filter type has not been fully defined. This could mean that the number range object is missing, or the intervals for the number range have not been set up correctly.
  Missing Key Maintenance: The key for the number range definition has not been maintained, which means that the system does not know how to generate or assign numbers for that filter type.

  Check Filter Type Configuration:
