Hi Sahil,

Thank you for guiding us in this blog on how to implement Plant specific Number Ranges.

We have an additional requirement, wherein we need Number Ranges specific to Plant and Billing Document type (F2, F8, G2 and L2).

Having followed the same procedure as above, we ar able to achieve this requirement for F2 and F8.

However, this fails for G2 and L2 (Credit and Debit Memos). Could you please share your thoughts or guide us on why this might be failing at G2 and L2?

Requirement -

			Company Code 2000
		Plant 2000			Plant 2101			Plant 2102
	Number Range Prefix	Number Range	Number Range Start	Number Range End	Number Range	Number Range Start	Number Range End	Number Range	Number Range Start	Number Range End
Invoice F2	ST	01	00000001	07999999	D1	08000000	08999999	T1	09000000	09999999
Credit Note G2	ST	05	40000000	47999999	D2	48000000	48999999	T2	49000000	49999999
Debit Note L2	ST	07	50000000	57999999	D3	58000000	58999999	T3	59000000	59999999
Profroma F8	ST	04	30000000	37999999	D4	38000000	38999999	T4	39000000	39999999

Highlighted in Italics works well, however, the rest does not.

Your thoughts?

 

Kind Regards,
