• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EZ852 - Number range &1 (object &2) is in critical area ?

  The SAP error message EZ852 indicates that a number range for a specific object is in a critical area. This typically means that the number range is nearing its limit and may soon run out of available numbers, which can disrupt processes that rely on generating new numbers (like document numbers, order numbers, etc.).
  
  Cause:
  
  Exhaustion of Number Range: The number range defined for the object has reached a critical threshold, meaning that the available numbers are low.
  
  Configuration Issues: The number range may not have been configured properly, or the intervals may not have been set up to accommodate the expected volume of transactions.
  High Transaction Volume: A sudden increase in the number of transactions can lead to rapid consumption of the available numbers in the range.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Extend the Number Range:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object (indicated by &2 in the error message).
  Check the current intervals
