ModificationOutsideTransactionException The document has no open transaction.
Remarks

Valid values range from 1 to 10. Numbers with fewer digits than the minimum number will be padded with leading zeros.

The value affects all numbering schemas. Thus, once set, numbers for Rebar and Reinforcement Fabric will be formatted with the same minimum number of digits.

The current value can obtained by invoking the GetMinimumNumberOfDigits(Document) method.
