Hi

You only can have year specific different no. ranges. use Txn code OMBT for this. But again this ranges has to be changed every year and one has to put this activity in the Year end closing SOP activities. It is best to work with the SAP std no. ranges which is provided.

Hi,

You can determine number ranges within the possibility of standard SAP. For example (C1P1xxx) C=Company,P=Plant and xxx is material)

Material master number ranges are at client level, you cannot have plant specific..

and there is no business logic in it..

Suppose if you maintain plant specific number range

If you have issue Plant & Receiving plant in the Same Trxn Code ..then which Plant number range it will trigger???

Thanks for your reply.

This business ( where we are donig implementation) is divided into 29 different divisions.

I will take example for one company code.

One company code: Has 14 division

DIvision details : AC division, Airsystem division, Domestic project division, International project divisions, Steel trading division, steel structural divsion, sheet metal division etc.

Now client has many division under one manufacturing plant. Example.

1 manufacturing plant is having AC division, Air system division ,Steel trading division, Steel structural division.

These four division has not link with each other. They even don't use others material even they are working under one roof, each division has its own set of Material master, Vendor Master, Customer Master, storage location etc.

Now stock transfer is also considered as sale purchase in this company.

We are now mapping there business,

Each division wil be considered as a Plant. So under one roof , there will be plants equivalent to Division.

Each plant will have own set of material master , unique materials for each plant. If common material it will have different material code for each plant/ division.

Each plant will have own set of Vendor master / division wise vendors , common vendor concept is not accpetable to them. Because for Invoice verification and payment only division is responsible.

In this situation our client ask for individual number range for each plant.

Can you help me.

Regards,.
