  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message E6012 - No numbers were requested (number range &1, object &2) ?

    The SAP error message E6012 "No numbers were requested (number range &1, object &2)" typically occurs when a number range object is being accessed, but there are no numbers available for allocation. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when creating documents, orders, or other entities that rely on number ranges.

    Cause:

    1. Exhausted Number Range: The number range defined for the specific object has been exhausted, meaning all available numbers have been used up.
    2. Incorrect Number Range Configuration: The number range may not be properly configured or activated for the object in question.
    3. Number Range Intervals: The intervals defined for the number range may not cover the required range of numbers.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or request numbers from the specified number range.

    Solution:

    1. Check Number Range Status:

      • Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
      • Enter the object name (e.g., the object associated with the error) and check the status of the number range.
      • Verify if the number range is exhausted.

      • In transaction SNRO, select the number range object and add a new interval with the desired range of numbers.
