  SAP Error Message:
  WS358 - Document numbers copied from run &
  
  1. Cause of the Error
  The error message WS358 typically occurs during document posting or number assignment processes in SAP Financial Accounting (FI) or related modules. It indicates that the system has detected that document numbers are being copied or reused from a previous number range run, which is not allowed or expected in the current context.
  More specifically:
  
  SAP uses number ranges to assign unique document numbers for financial postings.
  When a document number is copied from a previous run (i.e., the system tries to reuse or duplicate document numbers), it can cause inconsistencies or conflicts.
  This error often arises if the number range intervals are not properly maintained or if the document number assignment logic is disrupted.
  It can also happen if a user tries to manually enter a document number that has already been used or if the system’s number range buffer is out
