• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message NR641 - Interval does not exist ?

  The SAP error message NR641, which states "Interval does not exist," typically occurs in the context of number range management. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a valid number range interval for the specified object or document type. Here are the causes, solutions, and related information for this error:
  Causes:
  
  Missing Number Range Interval: The number range interval for the specific object (e.g., document type, transaction) has not been defined in the system.
  Inactive Number Range: The number range interval exists but is not active or has been set to inactive.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration for the number range may be incorrect, such as assigning the wrong number range to a document type.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the number range.
  Number Range Exhaustion: The defined number range has been exhausted, meaning all available numbers have been used.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Define Number Range Interval:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object and check if the interval is defined.
  If not, create a new interval by specifying the range of numbers and ensuring it is assigned to the correct object.
  
  
  
  Activate Number Range:
  
  If the number range exists but is inactive, activate it in the configuration settings.
  You can do this in transaction code SNRO or through the relevant customizing path in SPRO.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Verify that the number range is correctly assigned to the document type or object in question.
  Use transaction code OBA7 (for document types) or the relevant customizing transaction for your specific object.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and use the number range.
  This can be checked in transaction code SU53 or by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Number Range Usage:
  
  Check if the number range has been exhausted. If so, you may need to extend the range or create a new interval.
  This can be done in transaction code SNRO by adjusting the upper limit of the number range.
