• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W0CSRS008 - Set one key only for each sales document category ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  W0CSRS008 – Set one key only for each sales document category
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when you try to assign more than one key (e.g., number range or other unique identifiers) to the same sales document category in the customizing settings. SAP requires that each sales document category must have exactly one unique key assigned to avoid ambiguity in document processing.
  Typically, this happens in the configuration of sales document types (transaction code VOV8) or number range assignments (transaction code VN01 or SNRO), where multiple keys are mistakenly assigned to a single sales document category.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the configuration for sales document categories:
  
  Go to transaction VOV8 (Sales Document Types).
  Select the sales document category in question.
  Verify the assigned keys (number ranges or other identifiers).
  Ensure that only one key is assigned per sales document category.
  
  
  
  Adjust number range assignments:
  
  Use transaction VN01 or SNRO to check number range objects.
  Confirm that the number range object is correctly linked to the sales document category.
  Remove any duplicate or additional keys assigned to the same sales document category.
  
  
  
  Save the corrected configuration and test the creation of sales documents to ensure the warning no longer appears.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Sales document categories define the behavior and processing rules for sales documents (e.g., inquiry, quotation, order).
  Number ranges are critical for uniquely identifying sales documents.
  Assigning multiple keys to one sales document category can cause inconsistencies in document numbering and processing.
  This message is a warning (W), so it may not stop processing but should be corrected to avoid future issues.
  
  
  Summary:
  
  Cause: Multiple keys assigned to one sales document category.
  Solution: Assign only one unique key per sales document category in customizing.
  Transactions to check: VOV8 (Sales Document Types), VN01 / SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  
  If you need further assistance, please provide the exact customizing step or transaction where the message appears.
