Number ranges are assigned throughout the system; however, for the purposes of this example we will look at assigning number ranges to sales document types Here is the path to follow: IMG, Sales and distribution, Master data, Item proposal, Define number ranges for item proposals

The code here is [OVZA] or [VN01], and so on Two forms of number ranges exist: Internal The system automatically proposes the number range and the next available number to be used External The system enables the user to specify the number in the number range he or she wishes to use In the overview screen, as seen in Figure 2-5 below, select the change intervals button, with the pencil icon, as shown in Figure 2-6

< xml version="10" encoding="UTF-8" > Page 50 You are then presented with the number range interval key Remember that the product proposal used item number range 11 for internal and 12 for external You can see the relevant sequence here To create a new number range, first find the exact requirements of the business; they may want the number range to be shared by numerous document types Thus, it must have a large interval Find a interval that is not yet used and select the button shown in Figure 2-7 Now enter your alpha numeric key (for example, 70) followed by the from and to numbers for the range Also indicate if the number range is internal or external In most document types, you may only want to use an internal number assignment After creating your number range, you may assign it by accessing the object you are creating it for, such as the document type MS

TIP: Should you be doing any data conversion of old documents such as sales documents into new SAP R/3 documents, ensure that your external number range assignment interval matches the external document number range for which you are doing the data conversion Number ranges are manually transported through clients A client is the environment you are operating in; you could be in the development environment, the quality or production environment, or client When transporting number ranges, the intervals you have in the client that you are exporting to will be deleted first Then the number range and assigned status will be created in the new client Also note that the number range assignments to document types or other objects are not transported with this manual transport

A sales order is a contractual agreement between a sales organization and a customer (sold-to party) for the supply of services or products over a specific period of time and in certain quantities A sales order copies all relevant information and master data from the customer master record and the material master record for a specific sales area It can be created with a reference to a preceding document, such as a quotation Should a document refer to a preceding document, the initial data is copied into the new document; thus, for example, the information of a quotation is copied from the quotation into the sales order This data is then transferred into the delivery document type, which uses the delivery or shipping information to create a delivery note Following the goods issue, the information is passed on to billing, if billing is necessary (Integration with other modules can happen throughout the process An interface with warehouse management, for example, could happen during the delivery process) The basic sales order process would look like Figure 2-8 As we saw from product proposals, each document (quotation, order, delivery, or invoice) is represented by a key document type For example, a standard delivery is LF and a standard invoice is F2 Sales document types can also be translated into other languages; thus, a sales order may be TA (German) or it may be OR (English) SAP has a language translation table where you can determine what a user should enter For example, if a user is logged on in English, the system will propose OR automatically Should the user enter OR, the system knows to use document
