APERB007 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: APERB - Error Messages for Periodic Posting Run

• Message number: 007

• Message text: Create document number range &1 with external number assignment

What causes this issue?

Processing was terminated since the document number range &V1& for year
&V2& is set up for internal number assignment.

System Response

You have to enter a document number range with external number
assignment for periodic posting of asset values, since the document
numbers are not assigned by Financial Accounting, but by the posting
program of Asset Accounting. External number assignment should
therefore not be equated with manual number assignment. In this case,
it means instead that number assignment is external from the point of
view of Financial Accounting.

How to fix this error?

Change number range &V1& from internal to external number assignment in
Customizing for Asset Accounting. Or check the document type entered.
