Migration steps

  1. List every place your custom code reads or writes NUMBER_GET_NEXT; the ABAP Test Cockpit cloud-readiness checks report these usages.
  2. Replace each access with CL_NUMBERRANGE_RUNTIME (CLAS).
  3. The successor is marked “Released” in the official release data, so the new code can use it in ABAP Cloud.
  4. Re-run the cloud-readiness check on the changed code against your target release.
