• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RTC_DOC_POSTING014 - Number range: Interval used up; no cycling possible ?

  The SAP error message RTC_DOC_POSTING014, which states "Number range: Interval used up; no cycling possible," typically occurs when the number range assigned to a particular document type has been exhausted. This means that all the numbers in the defined range have been used, and there are no more available numbers to assign to new documents.
  Cause:
  
  Exhausted Number Range: The most common cause is that the number range for the document type has been completely utilized.
  Configuration Issues: The number range may not be configured to allow for cycling or may not have been set up correctly.
  Limited Range: The defined range may be too small for the volume of documents being processed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Current Number Range:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Enter the object name related to the document type (e.g., RTC_DOC for document posting) and click on "Intervals."
  Check the current status of the number range intervals to see if they are indeed exhausted.
  
  
  
  Extend the Number Range:
  
  If the number range is exhausted, you can extend it by adding a new interval.
  In the same SNRO transaction, you can create a new interval with a higher upper limit or adjust the existing interval to increase the range.
  
  
  
  Activate Cycling (if applicable):
  
  If your business process allows for cycling (reusing numbers), ensure that the number range is configured to allow cycling. This can be done in the number range configuration settings.
  
  
  
  Review Document Type Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration of the document type in the relevant module (e.g., FI, MM, etc.) to ensure that it is correctly linked to the number range you are trying to use.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Basis or Functional Team:
  
  If you are unsure about making changes to the number range, consult with your SAP Basis or functional team for assistance.
