• Message text: Number range object for view & is buffered; see long text

What causes this issue?

The number range objects from which the numbers for new base portfolios
are drawn, must not be buffered. The reason for this is that the
chronological assignment of base portfolio numbers is assumed during
data transfer.
When you create a view, the system creates unbuffered number range
objects. The number range object was probably changed at a later point
in time.
