• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ICC_NUM_LV000 - Only one active number group is allowed ?

  The SAP error message "ICC_NUM_LV000: Only one active number group is allowed" typically occurs in the context of number range management, particularly when dealing with number ranges for certain objects in SAP. This error indicates that the system has detected multiple active number groups for a specific number range object, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  
  
  Multiple Active Number Groups: The primary cause of this error is that there are multiple number groups defined as active for the same number range object. SAP allows only one active number group at a time for certain operations to ensure data integrity and consistency.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: This can happen due to incorrect configuration in the number range settings, where the system might have been set up to allow multiple active groups inadvertently.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If number range configurations were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), it might lead to inconsistencies if not handled properly.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that only one number group is active for the relevant number range object. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Access Number Range Management:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Object Management).
  Enter the relevant number range object and click on "Display".
  
  
  
  Check Active Number Groups:
  
  In the number range object, check the defined number ranges and their statuses.
  Identify if there are multiple number groups marked as active.
  
  
  
  Deactivate Unnecessary Groups:
  
  If you find multiple active groups, you will need to deactivate the unnecessary ones.
  You can do this by selecting the number group you want to deactivate and changing its status to inactive.
  
  
  
  Save Changes: After making the necessary changes, save your configuration.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After making the adjustments, perform the operation that previously triggered the error to ensure that it has been resolved.
