• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPAYDESVBN013 - No sequential number available ?

  The SAP error message HRPAYDESVBN013: No sequential number available typically occurs in the context of payroll processing within the SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) module. This error indicates that the system is unable to generate a sequential number for a payroll run, which is necessary for processing payroll results.
  Causes:
  
  
  Number Range Issues: The most common cause of this error is that the number range for the payroll document has been exhausted or is not properly configured. Each payroll run requires a unique sequential number, and if the defined range is full, the system cannot generate a new number.
  
  
  Configuration Errors: There may be issues with the configuration of the number range objects in the system. If the number range is not set up correctly, it can lead to this error.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or modify the number range settings.
  
  
  System Errors: There could be underlying system issues or bugs that are causing the number range to not function as expected.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Check the number range object related to payroll (usually HR_PAYROLL or similar).
  Ensure that the number range is correctly defined and that there are available numbers in the range.
  
  
  
  Extend Number Range:
  
  If the number range is exhausted, you may need to extend it. This can be done in the same SNRO transaction by adjusting the upper limit of the number range.
  
  
  
  Review Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and modify the number range settings. This may involve checking roles and profiles assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Check for System Issues:
  
  If the above steps do not resolve the issue, check for any system errors or logs that may indicate a deeper problem. You can use transaction codes like SM21 (System Log) or ST22 (Dump Analysis) to investigate further.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
