• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ID_UK_FOTV091 - (E) Number range for transaction id is in critical range ?

  The SAP error message ID_UK_FOTV091 (E) "Number range for transaction id is in critical range" typically indicates that the number range for a specific transaction is nearing its limit. This can occur in various modules within SAP, such as Financial Accounting (FI), Controlling (CO), or others that utilize number ranges for document numbering.
  Cause:
  
  Exhaustion of Number Range: The number range defined for a specific transaction type is close to being fully utilized. This means that the system is running out of available numbers to assign to new transactions.
  Configuration Issues: The number range may not have been properly configured to accommodate the expected volume of transactions.
  Incorrect Number Range Assignment: The transaction may be incorrectly assigned to a number range that is not sufficient for the volume of transactions being processed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Status:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Enter the relevant number range object associated with the transaction and check the current status of the number range.
  Look for the "Current Number" and "Last Number" to see how many numbers are left.
  
  
  
  Extend the Number Range:
  
  If the number range is indeed in a critical state, you can extend it by:
  
  Going to transaction code SNRO.
  Selecting the relevant number range object.
  Adjusting the number range intervals to increase the available numbers.
  
  
  Ensure that the new range does not overlap with existing ranges.
  
  
  
  Create a New Number Range:
  
  If extending the existing range is not feasible, consider creating a new number range and assigning it to the relevant transaction type.
  This can be done in the customizing settings (transaction code SPRO).
  
  
  
  Monitor Usage:
  
  Regularly monitor the usage of number ranges to prevent this issue from occurring in the future.
  Set up alerts or reports to notify administrators when a number range is approaching its limit.
