  Error Message
  VN2017 - No entry in T161N
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when the system tries to determine the number range object for a vendor invoice document but cannot find an entry in the table T161N for the combination of:
  
  Document type (e.g., KR for vendor invoice)
  Company code
  Number range object
  
  The table T161N controls the assignment of number range objects to document types and company codes for vendor invoices. If the required entry is missing, SAP cannot assign a number range to the document, resulting in this error.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During the posting of vendor invoices (transaction codes like MIRO, FB60, or other invoice posting transactions).
  When the system tries to assign a number range to the vendor invoice document but fails due to missing configuration.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Table T161N:
  
  Go to transaction SE16N or SE16.
  Enter table name T161N.
  Check if there is an entry for the relevant Document Type and Company Code.
  
  
  
  Maintain Number Range Assignment:
  
  Use transaction SNRO or FBN1 to check number ranges.
  Use transaction OBA7 (for FI document types) or OMR6 (for MM invoice document types) to check or assign number range objects.
  Assign the correct number range object to the document type and company code in T161N.
  
  
  
  Create Missing Entry:
  
  If the entry is missing, create it by:
  
  Going to SPRO ? Financial Accounting ? Accounts Payable ? Vendor Invoices ? Number Ranges ? Assign Number Range Objects to Document Types.
  Or directly maintain the table via customizing.
  
  
  Assign the appropriate number range object to the document type and company code.
  
  
  
  Verify Number Range Object:
  
  Ensure the number range object assigned has valid number ranges defined and they are not exhausted.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  T161N is a customizing table that links document types and company codes to number range objects for vendor invoices.
  Number range objects control the numbering of documents to ensure uniqueness and consistency.
  This error is common after client copies, system upgrades, or transport imports where customizing might be incomplete.
  Always check if the number range intervals are properly maintained and not expired.
