Analyze Number Ranges for Physical Inventory Documents
This checkpoint is relevant exclusively for org.-dependent conversions.
The table IKPF and ISEG contain physical inventory documents from
materials management.
Background:
With regard to the fact that only the document number and the fiscal
year are key data for these tables, duplicate records may occur in the
database after a fiscal year conversion if the document numbers were
assigned on a year-by-year basis. The system checks table NRIV to
determine whether duplicate records can occur. During the fiscal year
conversion, you can specify a value which will be added to the existing
document numbers.
By default, these tables are covered by the fiscal year conversion
(field GJAHR). However, this does not include changing the document
numbers.
How to proceed:
There is a separate activity (Define Value to Be Added to Document
Numbers), in which you specify the required value. The related fields
are then activated for conversion.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
