Hi All

I have created one number range object using transcation SNRO , this object works fine in development client but when i test the object in testing client it gaves me message Number Range not defined .

When i checked in the database table NRIV no record found for this in testing client but in development record is there and it works fine .

Please let me know how can define Number Range Object client independant

Regards

don!t create client independent objects! transport the number range object instead!

Are number ranges transportable?

the definition of the range, yes (for example: RF_BELEG for FI documents, or any Z... one, whihc you define on your own).

Of course the from-to numbers has to be entered separately in each single client.

I wasn't sure. Some configuration has to be done in each instance.

However, I noticed that changing the number range doesn't trigger a transport. It has to be done manually.

What I think Sunanda is talking about here is two clients in the same box, so when she says client independent it is like an SE38 program available across all clients in same box,

but if you need it on a different box like quality or production only then you transport.

That is why you have to transport the intervals, as you wont have authorization to change the interval value in other clients.

<b>don't transport number range intervals!!! this is a thing you must not do, otherwise if you transport to productive client, you can seriously damage your data!!!</b>

look for someone, who is able to that. Doing it directly ineach client / system is the way to do it.

While I agree with you on "f you transport to productive client, you can seriously damage your data!!!" and "look for someone, who is able to that" ,

are you sure that intervals are always created on separate clients? coz, on my project we do transport number range intervals (not to production but just inside the dev box), the change auth for creating intervals are only on the customizing clients and each of the other clients it is always display only access.

Yup "and we always get the functional consultant to transport the request".

hi Srihari,

the problem could be if this transport is imported later to any productive system anyhow... just by accident... you'll be in serious trouble...

the other thing I don't understand is that you don't have change auth on number ranges in test/dev system, but you have that in production? But I know that in Bangalore anything can happen

Eric,

Now I see where the trouble is :

What we have here is (atleast) in my project is we have various clients in the same system (the DEV box). we do not have auth to create number ranges intervals in the diff clients of the same box, only the config client has.

When it comes to the testing box or the production box i think they have the authorization to create the intervals in those. (Although I dont know why this two way strategy, have to find out)

<b>The best thing for Sunanda to do right now is go to her functional consultant and ask him / her to do whatever they always do with number ranges.</b>

Anyways, good learning abt the importance to number range transports.

Thanks and Regards,

Srihari

While the number range object itself falls under a development request and hence becomes client independent, but the number range or interval is not.

You will have to add the number range or interval to customizing request and transport them to the other clients.

To add an interval to a customizing request, go to SNRO, put in the number range object name, the click on the number ranges button.

Now on the new screen menu, choose interval --> Transport and put a customizing request number.

Now transport the request !

Hi Mandavi,

Number ranges, should not be tranported... (it is not that you can not transport)....

Ask the functional consultant to create the number ranges in the respective client manually....

If the hint is useful… Say thanks by reward….
