  The SAP error message MDC_PROCESS_MSG001 indicates that the system is unable to determine the Process ID from the internal number range. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Multi-Domain Configuration (MDC) or when dealing with process management in SAP systems.
  Cause:

  Missing Customization: If the MDC or process management has not been properly set up or customized, the system may not be able to generate or retrieve a valid Process ID.
  System Errors: There may be underlying system issues or inconsistencies that prevent the proper functioning of the number range object.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).

  Review Customization:
