Yes, That's how Account group configured, it accepts only External number range...I mean both are possible, in your case for the respective account group is assigned with external number range..

Hi,

If you are creating vendor in XK01t.code by entering company code , purchasing organisation and account group and geeting the error "Acct group XX uses ext. no. assignment. Specify an account number".Then follow the below steps:

***Option-1: Enter external Number of vendor ( like A101 or A102 or B103)in the Vendor Field after entering company code , purchasing organisation and account group..

Now system would not error.

***Option-2:

Check you account Group "XX " and its number ranges assignment

A.T.Code:OBD3:Check you account Group "XX " is there or not,

B.T.Code:XKN1:Check Number Range and its Text and see is it external or internal,

C.T.Code:OBAS: Asssignment of Number Ranges to Account Group

If business requirement is external numbering of vendor then follow otpion-1 and if it internal ,Follow the procedure

1.Create new account Group (OBD3),

2.Create Number Range (XKN1) ,Make here Intenal Numbering

3.Asssign of Number Ranges to Account Group(OBAS)

4.Partner Function: SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination-> partner roles->Permissible partner role sper account group

Here........Assign Partner Functions to new account group

5.Partner Schema:

SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination->Partner setting in Vendor master record-> Define partner Schema

6.Assgin partner schema to accont Group

SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination->Partner setting in Vendor master record-> Assgin partner schema to account Group.

Now create Vendor in XK01, you would not have any problem.

If helpful to you and then reward.

Hi,

Do not understand, whats ur problems?

For creating vendor .T.code is XK01

then ,enter company code , purchasing organisation and your account group 0001 and if you assigned internal number ranges , system will create automatically or if external number ranges ,you have to enter your own number in Vendor field and then procced.

Here account group play a great role here and that decide properties of vendor.

Did you read my ealier answer and did work on that.If not pl read.

But whats ur requirement?

1.account Group (OBD3),

2.Create Number Range (XKN1) ,Make here Intenal Numbering

3.Asssign of Number Ranges to Account Group(OBAS)

4.Partner Function: SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination-> partner roles->Permissible partner role sper account group

Here........Assign Partner Functions to new account group

5.Partner Schema:

SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination->Partner setting in Vendor master record-> Define partner Schema

6.Assgin partner schema to accont Group

SPRO->MM->Purcahsing->Partner Determination->Partner setting in Vendor master record-> Assgin partner schema to account Group.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

In Step 2 ie.....XKN1, go to display Number range number( like example "XX" or "03") and see which one ticked extenal ( by having tick mark a check box)

In step 3, see that Number range number ( like example "XX" or "03") is asigned to account group or not.If sombody changed , now assign it and save.

Now try to create vendor in XK01.Remember, you have enter the correct account group.

Hope helpful.

Dear,

The question it self provides you an answer.Here you come across this error when you try to create a vendor with out any number, i.e you might have marked your number ranges as external..that is the reason...

you now check the status of the number range and create a vendor with the next number
