• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GJ212 - Number Range for Class & for Company Code & Has Reached the Last 10 % ?

  The SAP error message GJ212 indicates that the number range for a specific class and company code has reached the last 10% of its available numbers. This is a warning that the number range is nearing its limit, and if not addressed, it could lead to issues with creating new records that require a unique number from that range.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when the system detects that the number range for a specific class (e.g., asset class, document type) and company code is running low on available numbers. This can happen due to:
  
  High Volume of Transactions: A large number of transactions have been created, consuming most of the available numbers in the range.
  Inadequate Number Range Configuration: The number range may have been set too low initially, not anticipating the volume of transactions.
  Number Range Overlap: If multiple classes or company codes are using the same number range, it can lead to quicker depletion.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Extend the Number Range:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object associated with the class and company code.
  Adjust the number range to increase the upper limit, allowing for more numbers to be generated.
  
  
  
  Create a New Number Range:
  
  If extending the existing range is not feasible, consider creating a new number range.
  Assign the new number range to the relevant class and company code.
  
  
  
  Monitor Usage:
  
  Regularly monitor the usage of number ranges to prevent reaching critical levels in the future.
  Set up alerts or reports to notify relevant personnel when the number range is approaching its limits.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of number ranges to ensure they are set appropriately for the expected transaction volume.
