• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/ESI025 - Last number (&1) assigned (&2/&3). Number range will start from beginning ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/ESI025 Last number (&1) assigned (&2/&3). Number range will start from beginning typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when the system has exhausted the available numbers in a specific number range. This can happen when the number range for a particular object (like handling units, warehouse orders, etc.) has been fully utilized.
  Cause:
  
  Exhausted Number Range: The number range defined for a specific object has been completely used up. For example, if the number range is set from 1 to 1000, and all numbers have been assigned, the system will throw this error when it tries to assign a new number.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the number range settings, such as incorrect intervals or limits.
  Data Migration or Bulk Operations: If a large number of records were created in a short period (e.g., during data migration), it could lead to the exhaustion of the number range.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Extend the Number Range:
  
  Go to the transaction code SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Find the relevant number range object related to the error message.
  Check the current status and extend the number range if necessary. You can increase the upper limit of the number range to allow for more numbers to be assigned.
  
  
  
  Reset the Number Range:
  
  If appropriate, you can reset the number range to start from the beginning. However, this may lead to duplicate numbers if not handled carefully, so it should be done with caution.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration settings for the number range to ensure they are set up correctly. This includes checking the intervals and ensuring that they are not too restrictive.
  
  
  
  Monitor Usage:
  
  Implement monitoring for number range usage to prevent future occurrences. This can include alerts when the number range is nearing exhaustion.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to number range management for specific guidance on your version of SAP EWM.
