This error is common in various SAP modules, especially in Materials Management (MM) and Financial Accounting (FI).

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object for the document type you are working with.

  Use Correct Document Type:
  
  Verify that you are using the correct document type that corresponds to the number range you are trying to use.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Basis or Functional Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary authorizations to change number ranges, consult with your SAP Basis or functional team to make the required adjustments.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Logic:
  
  If there are any custom developments or user exits that might affect document number assignment, review them to ensure they are not causing the issue.
