External Number Range for Equipment

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I have been trying to assign External Number range for Equipment. I created External Number range & assigned the Equipment category to that group. I have not ticked No Alphanumeric code is allowed in Equipment category configuration.

When I am trying with Equipment creation in IE01, I am getting error message as follows.

No external number range defined for equipment category
Message no. IS037
Diagnosis
You have entered a number but an internal number assignment is set for the equipment category.
System Response
The system assigns a number itself.
Procedure
You should not enter a number.

I have attached the screen shot of OIEN transaction & IE01 transaction.

I tried with different combination like 1000AA00 to 1000ZZ00, 1000AA00 to ZZZZZZZZ, etc.,

I am facing this problem with one of the Training Client.

In Unit Testing Client, 1000AZ00 to ZZZZZZZZ number range is working fine.

Please give some views on this.

The External Number Range number was missing in T370T table for the required category.

After maintaining that properly, I could create an equipment as per my requirement.

HI,

I am having the same issue that the external number is not udpated on the table  T370T. Can you advice me how did you update the table T370T for external number range?

Thanks

I have not done any direct table entry.

I tried via OIEN & somehow got succeeded. Try removing all the existing number ranges & create new. It may work out.
