What causes this issue?

Line item documents are written for the combination of ledger, version,
company code or global company and fiscal year which you have planned.
You have changed or created so many records that more than 999 records
have been posted, and therefore several document numbers must be used.
For this reason, there are not enough free document numbers available.
