• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message J3804 - Only 1% of numbers available for number range object & in range & ?

  The SAP error message J3804 indicates that the number range object you are trying to use has only 1% of its available numbers left. This typically occurs when the number range is nearly exhausted, meaning that there are very few numbers left to assign for new documents or entries.
  Cause:
  
  Exhausted Number Range: The number range object has been used extensively, and the available numbers are running low.
  Configuration Issues: The number range may not have been configured properly to allow for a sufficient range of numbers.
  High Volume of Transactions: A high volume of transactions or entries being created in a short period can lead to rapid consumption of the available numbers.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Extend the Number Range:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Object Management).
  Find the relevant number range object and check its current settings.
  If necessary, extend the number range by adding more numbers to the existing range or creating a new range.
  
  
  
  Check Number Range Status:
  
  Use transaction code SNUM to check the status of the number range and see how many numbers are still available.
  If the range is nearly exhausted, consider creating a new number range or adjusting the existing one.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration:
  
  If the number range is part of a configuration for a specific application (like sales orders, purchase orders, etc.), ensure that the configuration allows for a larger number range if needed.
  
  
  
  Monitor Usage:
  
  Regularly monitor the usage of number ranges to prevent running into this issue in the future. Set up alerts or reports to notify administrators when the number range is approaching its limits.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or functional team for best practices regarding number range management.
