What causes this issue?

No number range has been maintained for transaction &V2& in controlling

The revaluation writes line items to the original planning
transactions. Planning transactions taken into account during plan
revaluation are:
RKP1: Primary cost planning
RKP5: Revenue planning
RKP2: Activity-dependent primary cost planning
You must define number ranges for the transaction RKP1. You only need
to define number ranges for transactions RKP5 and RKP6 if these
transactions have been planned manually and they are processed during
revaluation. You can ignore this error message if you have not carried
out any revenue planning or any activity-dependent cost planning.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
