• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FAGL_POST_SERVICE049 - Number range interval &1 already used ?

  The SAP error message FAGL_POST_SERVICE049 indicates that there is an issue with the number range interval for posting financial documents. Specifically, it means that the number range interval specified for the posting is already in use, which prevents the system from generating a new document number.
  Cause:
  
  Number Range Overlap: The number range interval defined for the document type you are trying to post is already being used by another document or has been exhausted.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the number range settings for the relevant document type in the Financial Accounting (FI) module.
  Concurrent Posting: If multiple users are trying to post documents simultaneously, they may be attempting to use the same number range interval.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object for the document type you are using (e.g., for general ledger postings).
  Check the intervals defined and ensure that they are correctly set up and not overlapping with other intervals.
  
  
  
  Adjust Number Range:
  
  If the number range is exhausted, you may need to extend the number range interval. This can be done in the same SNRO transaction by editing the intervals.
  Ensure that the number range is not locked or restricted for the document type you are trying to post.
  
  
  
  Check for Concurrent Postings:
  
  If multiple users are posting at the same time, consider implementing a locking mechanism or scheduling postings to avoid conflicts.
  
  
  
  Review Document Type Settings:
  
  Check the configuration for the document type in transaction OBY6 (for document types) to ensure that the correct number range is assigned.
  
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team:
  
  If the issue persists, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team to check for any underlying system issues or locks that may be affecting number range availability.
