Each settlement must be identified explicitly. To do so, the SAP System creates a settlement document each time an object is settled.
You use settlement documents for the transactions "Reversal of Settlements" and "Repeated Period-End Closing".
In this step you define the intervals, or number ranges, for settlement documents for one or more controlling areas.
You should define separate number range intervals for settlement documents for each controlling area. This improves performance if you want to settle objects in different controlling areas at the same time (for example, on the same day).
You transport number range objects as follows:
In the initial screen, choose Interval -> Transport.
Note that all intervals for the selected number range object are deleted in the target system first. After the import, only the intervals you export are present. The number statuses are imported with their values at the time of export.
Dependent tables are not transported or converted. Note that the appropriate application table is also transported for number range objects used for group maintenance.
