    The SAP error message R1083 "No more numbers are free in number range &1" indicates that the specified number range has been exhausted. This typically occurs when all the numbers in a defined range have been used up, and there are no more available numbers to assign for new documents or transactions.

    3. Incorrect Number Range Assignment: The document type may be incorrectly assigned to a number range that is not intended for it.

    Solution:

    To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Number Range Status:
