• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GA785 - Do not define an int. no. range for CO-PA plan. LItems of trans. type & ?

  The SAP error message GA785, which states "Do not define an int. no. range for CO-PA plan. LItems of trans. type &," typically occurs in the context of the Controlling Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) module when there is an issue with the configuration of number ranges for CO-PA planning.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when there is an attempt to define an internal number range for CO-PA planning line items, which is not allowed. In CO-PA, the system expects that line items are generated without a predefined internal number range. This is because CO-PA planning line items are usually created dynamically based on the planning process and do not require a fixed number range.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to check the configuration settings related to number ranges for CO-PA planning. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Access the Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Look for the number range object related to CO-PA planning (usually COPA or similar).
  
  
  
  Check Number Range Settings:
  
  Ensure that there are no internal number ranges defined for the CO-PA planning line items.
  If you find any entries that define an internal number range for CO-PA planning, you should delete or deactivate them.
  
  
  
  Review CO-PA Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the CO-PA configuration settings (transaction code SPRO).
  Check the settings under "Controlling" -> "Profitability Analysis" -> "Planning" to ensure that the configuration aligns with the requirements of your organization.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  After making the necessary changes, try to execute the planning transaction again to see if the error persists.
