How To Fix FS559 - Upper limit & and number status & do not correspond

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FS - Messages from Tax Routines / Prenumbered Checks

• Message number: 559

• Message text: Upper limit & and number status & do not correspond

What causes this issue?

Ranges of checks can only be renumbered if the last check is the last
check printed from the lot. This ensures that during renumbering (that
is, a shifting of the number range), no information about the checks
contained within the range can be overwritten or deleted.

How to fix this error?

Make sure that the upper limit of the check numbers to be renumbered
corresponds to the number status of the accompanying lot.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FS559 - Upper limit & and number status & do not correspond ?

  The SAP error message FS559 ("Upper limit & and number status & do not correspond") typically occurs in the context of financial accounting, particularly when dealing with document numbers or number ranges in SAP. This error indicates that there is a mismatch between the defined upper limit for a number range and the current status of that number range.
  Cause:
  
  Number Range Configuration: The upper limit of a number range has been set incorrectly or has been exceeded. This can happen if the number range is not properly defined or if the system has generated more documents than the defined upper limit.
  Document Type Settings: The document type associated with the transaction may have a number range that is not aligned with the expected limits.
  Manual Changes: If there have been manual changes to the number range settings or if the number range was reset incorrectly, it can lead to this error.
  System Migration or Upgrade: If the system has been migrated or upgraded, inconsistencies in number range settings may arise.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object and check its configuration.
  Ensure that the upper limit is set correctly and that it has not been exceeded.
  
  
  
  Adjust Number Range:
  
  If the upper limit is too low, you may need to increase it. This can be done in the same SNRO transaction.
  Make sure to save the changes and check if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Review Document Type Settings:
  
  Use transaction code OBA7 to check the document type settings.
  Ensure that the document type is correctly assigned to the appropriate number range.
  
  
  
  Check for Document Generation:
  
  If documents have been generated beyond the upper limit, you may need to review and possibly delete or archive some documents to free up the number range.
  
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team:
  
  If the issue persists, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP Basis team or a functional consultant to investigate further, especially if there have been recent changes to the system.
