    The SAP error message CRD_MDA136 indicates that there is no number range defined for a specific credential type in the system. This error typically occurs when you are trying to create or manage credentials in the SAP system, and the system cannot find a valid number range to assign to the new credential.

    Cause:

    The primary cause of this error is that the number range for the specified credential type (denoted by &1 in the error message) has not been configured in the system. This can happen if:

    • The number range has not been defined at all.
    • The number range has been deleted or is inactive.
    • There is a configuration issue in the system.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you need to define a number range for the specified credential type. Here are the steps to do this:

    1. Access the Number Range Configuration:

      • Go to the SAP Easy Access screen.
      • Navigate to the relevant configuration area for credential management. This is usually found under the following path:
        SPRO -> SAP Reference IMG -> Cross-Application Components -> SAP Credential Management -> Define Number Ranges for Credential Types
    2. Define a New Number Range:

      • In the number range configuration screen, check if a number range exists for the credential type in question.
      • If it does not exist, create a new number range:
        • Click on "New Entries" to define a new number range.
        • Specify the number range interval (e.g., from 1 to 9999).
        • Assign the number range to the appropriate credential type.
    3. Activate the Number Range:

      • Ensure that the number range is active and properly configured.
      • Save your changes.
    4. Test the Configuration:

      • After defining the number range, try to create or manage the credential again to see if the error persists.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to number ranges in the system.
