  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W+605 - Target is within block ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W+605 Target is within block


    Cause:

    This warning message occurs when you attempt to move or copy a data record (such as a material, batch, or document) to a target that lies within a blocked range or block of data. In other words, the target object or number you are trying to assign or use is currently within a blocked interval or range, which is not allowed.

    For example, in number range management or batch management, certain ranges or blocks of numbers/objects may be blocked to prevent usage. If you try to assign a number or target that falls into such a blocked range, SAP issues this warning.


    Solution:

    • Check the block status: Verify if the target number or object is within a blocked range or block. You can do this by reviewing the relevant number range intervals or block settings in the customizing or master data.

    • Adjust the target: Choose a target number or object outside the blocked range. This might mean selecting a different number or adjusting the number range intervals.

    • Unblock the range (if appropriate): If the block is no longer needed, and you have authorization, you can unblock the range or remove the block in the customizing or master data.

    • Consult with your SAP administrator: If you are unsure about the block or its purpose, consult with your SAP basis or functional team to understand why the block exists and whether it can be removed or adjusted.


    Related Information:

    • This message is often related to number range management or batch management in SAP.
    • The message is a warning (W), so it may not stop the process but indicates a potential issue that should be resolved.
    • Check transaction codes related to number range intervals, such as SNRO (Number Range Objects) or specific customizing paths depending on the module.
    • In some cases, this message can appear during data migration or mass changes when target numbers are assigned programmatically.

    If you provide the exact transaction or context where this message appears, I can give more tailored advice.
