Material number has to be 30 Digit. So how to get this is SAP? The present 18 Digit is NOT at all sufficient for the business? It has to be Alpha Numeric or sometimes only numbers. It must be external numbering system only & not the SAP generated internal number range because material number or name is given by Vendors. Ex: ABC1234, 89900-0098-8987, Y778-009, 77777766665444433322211-A, etc
