SAP Number Range Objects
SAP Number Range Objects
SAP has a lot of number range objects. Customers have a number range object, Vendors have one, Sales Transactions, Deliveries, Invoices,
Accounting documents, Vendor payments, so on and so forth. Even EDI documents have a number range. Each of these number ranges could
have a common name.
For example, Customer master and Vendor master number ranges are shown below.
The number range interval name might seem the same ( 01, 02.. ) and even the From and To numbers could look the same. But they belong to
different number range objects. For example, look at number range 04 above between the 2 different number range objects, and you can
understand.
So, although the number ranges look the same they are specific to a particular number range object – meaning, Customer number range 01 for
example is totally different from Vendor number range 01. A list of all the number range objects ( Customer, Vendor, Material etc ) can be got
from the transaction SNRO. There are close to 1800 number range objects.
For example, the number range object for Customer is DEBITOR and the transaction to maintain the number ranges for Customer is XDN1.
