• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CK028 - Number & was the last number that can be assigned for this interval ?

  The SAP error message CK028 indicates that the number range for a specific interval has been exhausted. This typically occurs in the context of material master records, costing, or other areas where number ranges are used to uniquely identify objects.
  Cause:
  The error message CK028 is triggered when the system attempts to assign a new number from a number range that has already reached its maximum limit. This can happen if:
