• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FITVPS305 - Number assignment: Number range not internal ?

  The SAP error message FITVPS305, which states "Number assignment: Number range not internal," typically occurs when there is an issue with the number range configuration in the SAP system. This error is often encountered in the context of document or transaction creation where a number range is expected to be assigned to a document but is not set up correctly.
  Cause:
  
  Number Range Configuration: The number range that is being used for the document type is not defined as an internal number range. In SAP, number ranges can be either internal (automatically assigned by the system) or external (manually assigned by the user).
  Incorrect Number Range Assignment: The document type may be incorrectly assigned to a number range that is not set up for internal number assignment.
  Missing Number Range: The number range object may not be defined or activated in the system.
  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing the system from accessing the number range.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object associated with the document type that is causing the error.
  Ensure that the number range is set as "Internal" and is properly defined.
  
  
  
  Define or Adjust Number Ranges:
  
  If the number range is not defined, you can create a new internal number range by going to the transaction code SNRO and selecting the appropriate number range object.
  If the number range is defined but not set as internal, you may need to adjust the settings.
  
  
  
  Check Document Type Assignment:
  
  Go to the relevant configuration transaction (e.g., for financial documents, you might use OBY6 for document types).
  Ensure that the document type is correctly assigned to the internal number range.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and use the number range. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your SAP security team.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the document creation process again to ensure that the error is resolved.
