2956449 - Limitation on Number of Items in ByDesign Documents

Information regarding system limitations on the number of items in business documents and the recommended number of line items in Bydesign documents is needed.

SAP Business ByDesign

When creating documents such as Purchase Orders, Supplier Invoices, Sales Orders, or Customer Invoices, the system may not function reliably (experiencing dumps or timeouts) if the number of items in the documents exceeds 100.

Additionally, Purchase Requests or Purchase Orders cannot be created from Sales Orders that contain more than 100 line items.

For optimal system performance and reliability, it is recommended to keep the number of line items in Customer Relationship Management and Supplier Relationship Management documents to 100 or less. Creating documents with more than 200 items is strongly discouraged as it can negatively impact system performance. By maintaining less than 100 line items, you can ensure better performance and smooth execution of follow-up processes.
