• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FKK_ID_PT_SIGN316 - Sequential number does not match the length of number range object & ?

  The SAP error message FKK_ID_PT_SIGN316 indicates that there is a mismatch between the sequential number being used and the expected length defined in the number range object. This typically occurs in the context of contract accounts or billing documents in the SAP Convergent Charging or Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) modules.
  Cause:
  
  Number Range Configuration: The number range object associated with the document type or transaction may have been configured with a specific length, and the sequential number being generated or used does not conform to this length.
  Manual Entry: If a user is manually entering a number that exceeds the defined length of the number range, this error can occur.
  Data Migration Issues: If data has been migrated from another system, the sequential numbers may not align with the expected format or length.
