  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WY111 - Supplier & does not match interval of number range & & ?

    The SAP error message:

    WY111 Supplier & does not match interval of number range & &

    typically occurs when there is a mismatch between the supplier number and the number range interval assigned to it during document processing (e.g., invoice entry, purchase order, or vendor master data maintenance).


    Cause

    • Number Range Interval Mismatch:
      The supplier number being used falls outside the allowed number range interval assigned to that supplier or the document type.

    • Incorrect Number Range Assignment:
      The number range intervals for suppliers or related documents (like invoice documents) are not properly maintained or assigned in the system.

    • Customizing or Master Data Issue:
      The supplier master data might be assigned to a number range interval that does not include the supplier number, or the number range intervals are overlapping or incorrectly defined.


    Explanation

    In SAP, number ranges are used to uniquely identify documents or master data records. For suppliers (vendors), number ranges are defined in customizing (transaction XK01/XK02 for vendor master or SNRO for number range objects). If a supplier number is outside the defined number range interval, SAP throws this error to prevent inconsistencies.


    Solution

    1. Check Supplier Number Range Intervals:

      • Go to transaction SNRO (Number Range Objects).
      • Enter the object related to suppliers, e.g., LIFNR (Vendor Number).
      • Check the number range intervals defined.
      • Verify if the supplier number in question falls within any of these intervals.
    2. Check Vendor Master Data:

      • Use transaction XK03 to display the vendor master.
      • Verify the vendor number and its assignment.
      • Check if the vendor number is valid and correctly assigned.
    3. Adjust Number Range Intervals:

      • If the supplier number is outside the existing intervals, extend or create a new number range interval that includes the supplier number.
      • Use transaction SNRO or XK01/XK02 to maintain number ranges.
    4. Check Document Type Number Ranges (if applicable):

      • For documents related to suppliers (e.g., invoices), check the number range intervals assigned to the document types.
      • Use transaction OBA7 or OMBA to check and maintain number ranges for accounting documents.
    5. Consistency Check:

      • Ensure that the number ranges do not overlap.
      • Make sure the number ranges are continuous and correctly assigned.
    6. Reprocess the Transaction:

      • After correcting the number range intervals, retry the transaction that caused the error.

    Additional Information

    • Number Range Object for Vendor:
      Usually, the vendor master number range object is LIFNR.

    • Related Transactions:

      • XK01 - Create Vendor
      • XK02 - Change Vendor
      • XK03 - Display Vendor
      • SNRO - Number Range Objects
      • OBA7 - Maintain Number Ranges for Accounting Documents
    • SAP Notes:
      Check SAP Notes related to number range issues for your SAP version if the problem persists.
