• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GLO_CH_QR_LO005 - & Offset of Document Number is too large ?

  The SAP error message GLO_CH_QR_LO005 typically indicates an issue related to the document number offset being too large. This error can occur in various contexts, often related to document processing or posting in SAP systems, particularly in the context of financial transactions or logistics.
  Cause:
  
  
  Document Number Range: The error usually arises when the document number being generated or processed exceeds the defined number range for that document type. Each document type in SAP has a specific number range, and if the system attempts to generate a document number that exceeds this range, it will trigger this error.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be misconfigurations in the number range settings for the document type in question. This could be due to incorrect settings in the number range intervals or the number range being exhausted.
  
  
  Data Migration or Upload Issues: If data is being migrated or uploaded into the system, and the document numbers being used are not within the allowed range, this error can occur.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object for the document type that is causing the error.
  Check the intervals defined for the number range and ensure that they are set correctly and that there is sufficient space for new document numbers.
  
  
  
  Adjust Number Range:
  
  If the number range is exhausted, you may need to extend the number range. This can be done by adding new intervals or increasing the upper limit of the existing interval.
  Ensure that the number range is not locked and is available for use.
  
  
  
  Review Document Posting Logic:
  
  If the error occurs during document posting, review the logic or the program that is generating the document numbers to ensure it adheres to the defined number range.
