  The SAP error message 9J405 indicates that there is no number range assigned for a specific order type in the system. This typically occurs when you are trying to create a document (like a production order, maintenance order, etc.) and the system cannot generate a unique identifier for that document because the necessary configuration is missing.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Number Range Assignment: The order type you are trying to use does not have a number range assigned to it in the configuration settings.
  Incorrect Configuration: The number range might be defined, but it is not properly assigned to the order type in the system.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was recently transported from another system, the number range assignment might not have been included or activated.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that the number range is correctly assigned to the order type. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Access the Number Range Configuration:

  Find the order type that is causing the error (as indicated in the error message).
  Check if a number range is assigned to this order type.
  
  
  
  Assign a Number Range:
  
  If no number range is assigned, you will need to create a new number range or assign an existing one.
  To create a new number range, navigate to SPRO -> IMG -> Production -> Shop Floor Control -> Order -> Define Number Ranges for Orders.
  Define a new number range and ensure it is set up correctly (including the interval and other settings).
  
  
  
  Assign the Number Range to the Order Type:
  
  Go back to the order type configuration and assign the newly created or existing number range to the order type.
