CNVA_20201_CHECK005 - Details

• The SAP error message CNVA_20201_CHECK005 typically indicates an issue related to number ranges in the context of external number assignment. This error occurs when the system detects that a number range is configured to be external, but the current number (field NRLEVEL) is already filled, which is not allowed for external number ranges.
  
  Cause:
  
  External Number Range Configuration: The number range is set to external, meaning that the numbers should be provided externally (e.g., by the user or an external system).
  Current Number Already Assigned: The system has detected that the current number (NRLEVEL) is already filled, which contradicts the requirement for external number ranges where the system should not automatically assign a number.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object and check its configuration.
  Ensure that the number range is correctly set up as external
