  • SAP Tcode: IDCN_NR_GEN - ODN number range generation
    
    Overview: 
    IDCN_NR_GEN is an SAP transaction code used to generate number ranges for the Object Dependent Number (ODN) system. This system is used to assign unique numbers to objects in the SAP system, such as documents, orders, and materials. 
    
    Functionality: 
    The IDCN_NR_GEN transaction code allows users to create and maintain number ranges for the ODN system. This includes creating new number ranges, changing existing ones, and deleting obsolete ones. The transaction code also allows users to view the current status of all number ranges in the system. 
    
    Step-by-step How to Use: 
    1. Enter the IDCN_NR_GEN transaction code into the command field. 
    2. Select “Create” from the menu bar. 
    3. Enter a name for the new number range and select “Save”. 
    4. Enter a start and end value for the range and select “Save” again. 
    5. Select “Activate” from the menu bar to activate the new range. 
    6. Select “Display” from the menu bar to view all active number ranges in the system. 
    7. To change or delete an existing range, select it from the list and make your changes or select “Delete” from the menu bar. 
    
    Other Recommendations: 
    It is important to note that once a number range has been activated, it cannot be changed or deleted without first deactivating it. Additionally, it is recommended that users create multiple number ranges for each object type in order to ensure that numbers are assigned efficiently and accurately.
