Description
This report program searches for a free interval for numbering requests.If the search is successful, you can save the interval. The requestnumbers are then taken from this interval.

For customers the number range interval includes the follwing areas:

• 900000-999999 (just numerals)


• 9A0000-9ZZZZZ for ASCII character set or

9AAAAA-9Z9999 for EBSDIC character set.
You only need to execute this program if you have come to the end of thenumber range interval, but there are still large gaps in the range thatyou want to use up.
Example

The customer has the SAP system C11. The last number assigned isC11K900115. The customer now imports transport request C11K9ZZZZA froman external SAP system C11 into the customer system C11. The nextrequest created in this system will have the number C11K9ZZZZB.

Procedure

Execute this program in transaction SE38.
Enter the interval limit, for example 5000. You can change this limit atany time.

If you entered an interval limit of 5000, the report searches for a freeinterval with a size of 5000.
If the search was successful, you can save this interval. If not, repeatthe search with a smaller interval.
