  The SAP error message MN789 indicates that there is an issue with the number range for the internal document number related to the collective processing of customer billing documents. This error typically arises when the system cannot find a defined number range for the specified document type.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Number Range: The number range for the internal document number for collective processing of customer billing documents has not been defined in the system.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the number range may be incorrect or incomplete.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or create the number range.
  Client-Specific Settings: The number range may be defined in a different client or not at all in the current client.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Number Range:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Look for the number range object related to customer billing documents (usually F2 for billing documents).
  Check if the number range is defined. If not, you will need to create a new number range.
  Ensure that the number range is set to be internal if that is the requirement.

  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and modify number ranges. This can be checked with the help of your SAP security team.
  
  
  
  Client-Specific Settings:
  
  Verify that you are working in the correct client. If the number range is defined in another client, you may need to transport the configuration or define it in the current client.
  
  
  
  Testing:
