  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M1103 - Number range interval &1 overrun for object &2 ?

    The SAP error message M1103 indicates that a number range interval has been exhausted for a specific object. This typically occurs when the system has used up all the available numbers in a defined number range for a particular document type or object.

    Cause:

    1. Exhausted Number Range: The most common cause is that the number range defined for the object (e.g., material documents, purchase orders, etc.) has been completely used up.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the number range settings, such as not having enough intervals defined or the intervals not being properly assigned.
    3. High Volume of Transactions: If your organization is processing a high volume of transactions, it can quickly deplete the available numbers in the range.

    Solution:

    1. Check Number Range Status:

      • Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
      • Enter the object name (e.g., for material documents, it might be MATERIAL).
      • Check the current status of the number range intervals to see if they are exhausted.
    2. Extend Number Range:

      • If the number range is exhausted, you can extend it by adding new intervals.
      • In transaction code SNRO, select the appropriate number range object and add a new interval with a higher range of numbers.
    3. Adjust Configuration:

      • Ensure that the number range is properly configured and that there are sufficient intervals defined for future use.
      • You may need to consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to ensure that the settings align with your business needs.
    4. Monitor Usage:

      • Regularly monitor the usage of number ranges to prevent future overruns. Set up alerts or reports to notify you when the number range is nearing its limit.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific instructions related to the number range object you are dealing with.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SNRO: Number Range Object Maintenance

    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide additional guidance related to number range management.
