W0141 - Details

• SAP Error Message:
  W0141 - Layout number range is not numerical
  
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when the layout number assigned or entered in a particular SAP transaction or configuration is expected to be numerical (i.e., only digits), but the system detects that the layout number contains non-numeric characters or is outside the defined numerical number range.
  Typically, layout numbers in SAP (for example, in forms, output layouts, or number range objects) are defined to be numeric values within a specific range. If a layout number is maintained or entered with alphabetic or special characters, or if the number is outside the allowed number range, SAP issues this warning.
  
  Where it commonly occurs:
  
  When maintaining or assigning layout numbers in output management (e.g., message output, print layouts).
  During configuration of number ranges for layouts.
  In customizing transactions related to forms or output layouts (e.g., NACE, SPRO settings).
  When creating or modifying layout numbers in certain master data or document
