  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IM432 - Error during number assignment: Interval not found ?

    The SAP error message IM432 ("Error during number assignment: Interval not found") typically occurs when the system is unable to find a number range interval for the object you are trying to create or process. This can happen in various modules, such as Inventory Management (IM), when the system attempts to assign a document number or an item number but cannot find a valid number range.

    Causes:

    1. Missing Number Range Interval: The number range interval for the specific document type or object has not been defined in the system.
    2. Number Range Not Assigned: The number range has been defined but not assigned to the relevant document type or object.
    3. Number Range Deactivated: The number range might be deactivated or set to a status that prevents it from being used.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the number range.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Number Range Configuration:

    4. Check User Authorizations:

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
