  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message NR654 - Number range status must be within interval limits or be initial ?

    The SAP error message NR654 indicates that there is an issue with the number range status for a specific number range object. This error typically occurs when the status of the number range is not within the defined limits or is not initialized correctly. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, solution, and related information for this error:

    Cause:

    1. Invalid Status: The number range status is set to a value that is outside the defined interval limits. Each number range object has a defined range of valid statuses, and if the status is set incorrectly, this error will occur.
    2. Uninitialized Number Range: The number range might not have been initialized properly, leading to an invalid status.
    3. Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the number range object in the SAP system.

    Solution:

    1. Check Number Range Configuration:

      • Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
      • Enter the relevant number range object and click on "Change".
      • Verify the status of the number range and ensure it is within the defined limits.
    2. Initialize the Number Range:

      • If the number range is not initialized, you can initialize it by going to the number range maintenance transaction (e.g., SNRO or SNUM).
      • Ensure that the number range is set to a valid initial status.
    3. Adjust Status:

      • If the status is incorrect, you can manually adjust it to a valid value that falls within the defined limits.
    4. Check for Custom Code:

      • If there is custom code that manipulates number ranges, review it to ensure it is not causing the status to be set incorrectly.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific number range object for any additional guidance or known issues.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SNRO: Number Range Object Maintenance
      • SNUM: Number Range Maintenance
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to number ranges.
    • Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to number ranges.
