  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BK062 - Assign a number range to business transaction &. ?

    The SAP error message BK062 ("Assign a number range to business transaction &") typically occurs when a business transaction in the SAP system does not have a number range assigned to it. This can happen in various modules, particularly in Financial Accounting (FI) or Controlling (CO), where specific transactions require unique identifiers.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Configuration: The number range for the specific business transaction has not been defined in the system.
    2. Incorrect Transaction Type: The transaction type being used may not be correctly configured to use a number range.
    3. Transport Issues: If the configuration was recently transported from another system, the number range assignment may not have been included or activated.

    Solution:

    To resolve the BK062 error, you need to assign a number range to the relevant business transaction. Here are the steps to do this:

    1. Access the Number Range Configuration:

      • Go to the SAP Easy Access screen.
      • Navigate to the configuration path: SPRO -> SAP Reference IMG -> Financial Accounting -> Financial Accounting Global Settings -> Number Ranges -> Define Number Ranges.
    2. Define a Number Range:

      • If a number range does not exist for the business transaction, you will need to create one.
      • Click on "Insert" to create a new number range.
      • Specify the number range interval and assign it a name.
    3. Assign the Number Range to the Business Transaction:

      • After defining the number range, you need to assign it to the specific business transaction.
      • Navigate to the relevant configuration area for the business transaction (e.g., Document Types or Transaction Types).
      • Assign the newly created number range to the appropriate transaction type.
    4. Check for Transport Issues:

      • If the configuration was recently transported, ensure that the number range assignment is included in the transport request.
      • If necessary, re-transport the configuration or manually apply the changes in the target system.
    5. Test the Configuration:

      • After making the changes, test the transaction that was causing the error to ensure that the number range is now correctly assigned and functioning.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like SNRO (Number Range Objects) to view and manage number ranges.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed steps on configuring number ranges and business transactions.
    • User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to number ranges and business transaction configurations.
