In this step, you define number ranges for the notifications. Each notification type must be assigned to a number range. You can assign several notification types to a single number range (a group).

Activities

  1. Define which notification types or groups of notification types can be distinguished on the basis of the number ranges. Define the group titles.
  2. Reserve the number ranges for the notifications and assign the corresponding notification types to these number ranges.

Further notes for Maintaining Number Ranges

To add a new group (number range) and to assign a notification type, proceed as follows:

  1. Access the maintenance function. The screen "Number Range: Notification" appears
  2. Choose Group -> Maintain (F6). The screen "Maintain Number Range Groups" appears.
  3. Choose Group -> Insert (F6). The screen "Insert Group" appears.
  4. On this screen, make the following entries:
    1. Description for group
    2. Number range interval and identification for internal/external number assignment
    3. For internal number assignment, the current status of the number (lower limit for the number interval)
  5. Exit the "Insert Group" screen and return to the "Maintain Number Range Groups" screen. The new group you have inserted now appears in the overview.

At the bottom of the list, all notification types appear that have not been assigned to a group.

  1. Select a group (such as, the one you added)
  2. Select one of the unassigned notification types and choose Edit -> Assign element to a group (F5).

The notification type has now been assigned to a group.

Further notes for Transporting the Number Ranges

The number range objects can be transported as follows:
On the initial screen, select "Interval -> Transport."
All intervals for the selected number range object are first deleted in the target system, so that only the exported intervals will be present after the import. The number ranges are imported with the value they have at the time of the export.

The group texts are also included in the transport.
The groups themselves do not need to be individually transported, because each notification type has a group (number range) specified. This is defined when the notification type is assigned to the group. The grouping is therefore transported with the notification types and is available without having to take further action.

If you make settings in your test client as described in the section Setting Up Clients in Customizing for notifications, you must copy both the number ranges (using transaction QCCN) and the basic settings (for example, for quality notifications using transaction QCCM) from client 000, to preserve the group formations. See SapNet - R/3 Frontend note 52390 for more details.
