How To Fix WRF_ASORT011 - Maintain dialog (DIA) and inbound (INB) for ext. no. range assignments

WRF_ASORT011 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WRF_ASORT - Message Class WRF Assortment

• Message number: 011

• Message text: Maintain dialog (DIA) and inbound (INB) for ext. no. range assignments

What causes this issue?

You want to assign special number ranges to creation modes for
assortments.
When doing so, take the following into account:
If you have only maintained an external number range for one creation
type (dialog or inbound), the non-maintained creation type is checked
against all external number ranges. This may lead to undesired overlaps.
The same applies to internal number ranges. However, the use of an
internal number range is not common for inbound processing.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

System Response

How to fix this error?

In the case of number range assignments (particulary external) for a
creation mode, there must always be an inbound assignment for a dialog
assignment.

  SAP Error Message: WRF_ASORT011
  Text: Maintain dialog (DIA) and inbound (INB) for external number range assignments
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the system detects that the number range assignments for dialog (DIA) and inbound (INB) processes for external number ranges are not properly maintained or missing. In SAP, when you use external number assignment for certain objects (like IDocs, messages, or other entities), you need to maintain number range intervals for both dialog and inbound processing to ensure consistent and unique number assignment.
  If these number ranges are not maintained or incorrectly configured, the system cannot assign numbers properly, leading to this error.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During configuration or processing of IDocs or other objects that require external number assignment.
  When the system tries to assign a number for inbound or dialog processing but finds no valid number range interval.
  During runtime or configuration validation steps related
