• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message O1202 - Number & not within number range & ?

  The SAP error message O1202 ("Number & not within number range &") typically occurs when you are trying to use a number that is not valid according to the defined number range for a specific object in SAP. This can happen in various contexts, such as when creating documents, orders, or other entities that require unique identifiers.
  Cause:
  
  Number Range Not Defined: The number range for the object you are trying to create or modify has not been defined or is not active.
  Number Range Exceeded: The number range has been exhausted, meaning that all available numbers within the defined range have been used.
  Incorrect Number: The number you are trying to use is outside the defined range (either too low or too high).
  Number Range Assignment: The number range may not be correctly assigned to the relevant document type or object.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object and check its configuration.
  Ensure that the number range is defined and active.
  
  
  
  Adjust Number Range:
  
  If the number range is exhausted, you may need to extend it. This can be done in the same SNRO transaction by adjusting the upper limit of the number range.
  Make sure to save your changes.
  
  
  
  Check Document Type Assignment:
  
  Ensure that the document type you are using is correctly assigned to the number range. This can usually be checked in the customizing settings for the specific module (e.g., Sales and Distribution, Materials Management).
  
  
  
  Use a Valid Number:
  
  If you are manually entering a number, ensure that it falls within the defined range. If you are using automatic number assignment, ensure that the system is configured to generate numbers correctly.
  
  
  
  Consult with Basis or Functional Team:
