• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message JBDVT142 - Internal number for turnovers is in the critical range ?

  The SAP error message JBDVT142, which states "Internal number for turnovers is in the critical range," typically relates to the internal number range management in SAP, particularly in the context of document numbers for financial transactions or turnover postings.
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the internal number range for turnover documents is approaching its upper limit. SAP uses internal number ranges to generate unique identifiers for various documents, and when the number of available numbers in that range is low, it triggers this warning or error message.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Look for the relevant number range object associated with turnover documents (e.g., JBDV for document numbers).
  Check the current status of the number range and see how many numbers are still available.
  
  
  
  Extend the Number Range:
  
  If the number range is indeed nearing its limit, you can extend it. This can be done by:
  
  Going to transaction code SNRO.
  Selecting the relevant number range object.
  Adjusting the upper limit of the number range to allow for more turnover documents.
  
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make these changes.
  
  
  
  Create a New Number Range:
  
  If extending the existing number range is not feasible or if you want to keep the current range intact, you can create a new number range.
  This involves defining a new number range object and assigning it to the relevant document types.
  
  
  
  Monitor Usage:
  
  After making changes, monitor the usage of the number range to ensure that it does not reach critical levels again in the future.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or functional team for best practices regarding number range management.
