• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WY133 - No sub-range found for supplier &1 ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WY133 No sub-range found for supplier &1
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs when the system tries to find a valid sub-range (sub-range of number ranges) for a given supplier but cannot find any assigned or defined sub-range for that supplier in the number range object.
  In SAP, number ranges can be subdivided into sub-ranges assigned to specific entities such as suppliers, customers, or company codes. If a transaction or process requires a number from a sub-range assigned to a supplier, but no such sub-range exists or is assigned, the system throws this error.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During document creation or processing involving suppliers (e.g., invoice processing, purchase order creation, or vendor master data maintenance).
  When the system tries to allocate a number from a number range sub-range assigned to a supplier but finds none.
  Typically related to number range objects for vendor-related documents or master data.
  
  
  Common Causes:
  
  No sub-range defined for the supplier: The supplier does not have a number range sub-range assigned.
  Incorrect or missing configuration: Number range intervals or sub-ranges are not maintained or assigned properly in customizing.
  Master data inconsistency: Supplier master data might be incomplete or missing relevant assignments.
  Customizing error: Number range object or sub-range assignment missing in transaction codes like SNRO or vendor master data configuration.
  
  
  How to check / verify:
  
  
  Check number range object and sub-ranges:
  
  Use transaction SNRO (Number Range Objects).
  Enter the relevant number range object (e.g., LIFNR for vendor numbers or other relevant object depending on the process).
  Check if sub-ranges are defined and assigned to suppliers or supplier groups.
  
  
  
  Check supplier master data:
  
  Use transaction XK03 or MK03 to display supplier master.
  Verify if the supplier is assigned to the correct number range sub-range or group.
  
  
  
  Check customizing for number ranges:
  
  Use SPRO ? Materials Management ? Purchasing ? Number Ranges or relevant IMG path.
  Verify number range intervals and sub-range assignments.
  
  
  
  
  Solution / How to fix:
  
  
  Define and assign sub-range for the supplier:
  
  In transaction SNRO, create or assign a sub-range for the supplier or supplier group.
  Ensure the sub-range covers the required number interval.
  
  
  
  Assign supplier to the correct sub-range:
  
  Update supplier master data to link the supplier to the correct number range sub-range.
  
  
  
  Adjust customizing:
  
  If the process requires a new number range or sub-range, define it in customizing.
  Ensure that the number range object used in the process has valid sub-ranges assigned.
  
  
  
  Check for user exits or enhancements:
  
  Sometimes custom code assigns number ranges or sub-ranges dynamically. Verify if any custom logic is causing the issue.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  This error is specific to number range management in SAP.
  The exact number range object depends on the business process (vendor master, purchasing documents, invoice documents, etc.).
  Proper number range and sub-range maintenance is critical for document numbering and avoiding conflicts.
  Consult SAP Notes or OSS if the problem persists after configuration checks.
