  The SAP error message "PTRA_WEB_INTERFACE134: Schema switch and int. instead of ext. number assignment not possible" typically occurs in the context of the SAP system when there is an issue with the configuration of number ranges or schema settings in the system. This error is often related to the handling of internal and external number assignments in the context of a specific schema.
  Cause:
  
  
  Schema Configuration: The error may arise if there is a mismatch in the configuration of the schema that is being used. Specifically, it can occur when the system is trying to switch between internal and external number assignments in a way that is not allowed by the current configuration.

  Number Range Settings: Go to the number range configuration (transaction code SNRO) and verify that the number ranges are correctly defined for the intended use (internal or external). Make sure that the number range intervals are properly set up and not overlapping.
  
  
  Adjust Settings: If you need to switch between internal and external number assignments, you may need to adjust the settings in the schema or number range configuration to allow for this. This may involve changing the number assignment type or modifying the schema settings.
