• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WGDS_PROCESS603 - Number couldn't be created for range number &1 and object &2. ?

  The SAP error message:
  WGDS_PROCESS603 Number couldn't be created for range number &1 and object &2.
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs when the system tries to generate a number (typically a document number, delivery number, or similar) for a specific number range object, but it fails because:
  
  The number range interval for the specified object (&2) and number range (&1) is either not defined, not active, or exhausted.
  The number range object does not exist or is incorrectly configured.
  The number range interval is not assigned to the relevant organizational unit or document type.
  The number range interval is set as external but no number was provided.
  There is a lock or inconsistency in the number range table preventing number assignment.
  
  
  Typical Scenarios:
  
  Creating delivery documents (e.g., outbound deliveries, shipments).
  Posting goods movements or warehouse documents.
  Any process that requires automatic number assignment from a number range object.
  
  
  How to Check / Solution:
  
  
  Check Number Range Object and Interval:
  
  Go to transaction SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Enter the number range object mentioned in the error message (&2).
  Check if the number range interval (&1) exists and is active.
  Verify the interval boundaries (from number, to number) and current number.
  Make sure the current number is not exceeding the upper limit.
  
  
  
  Check Number Range Assignment:
  
  For delivery documents, check the number range assignment in SPRO under Logistics Execution or Sales and Distribution.
  For warehouse documents, check the number range assignment in Warehouse Management customizing.
  Ensure the number range interval is assigned to the relevant document type or organizational unit.
  
  
  
  Check Number Range Type (Internal/External):
  
  If the number range is set to external, the system expects the user to enter the number manually.
  If the number range is set to internal, the system automatically assigns the next number.
  Adjust the number range type if necessary.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks or Inconsistencies:
  
  Sometimes, number range tables (e.g., NRIV, NRIV_EXT) can get locked or inconsistent.
  Use transaction SM12 to check for locks on number range tables.
  If locks exist, wait or delete them carefully if you are sure they are stale.
  Run report RSNR0001 to check number range inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Adjust or Create Number Range Interval:
  
  If no interval exists, create a new number range interval with appropriate boundaries.
  If the interval is exhausted, create a new interval with a higher range.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Ensure the user has authorization to create documents with the given number range.
