Symptom

"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental." 

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open Fiori app "Manage Automatic Payments"
  2. Click " Create Parameter" button
  3. Select all items in the supplier pop up window
  4. Warming message is raised

Cause

The warning message is raised due to the restriction of the used framework. It is a required functionality to avoid performance and memory problems. This is a standard system behavior.

Resolution

  1. To include all Business Partners (BPs), leave the filter in the Search and Select option in the F4 Help blank. Select all the supplier items that are listed. There is a limitation of 1000 items in the number of suppliers listed in the search list. Refer to the KBA 3144945 - Suppliers/Customers selection restricted to 1000 entries in "Manage Automatic Payments" app to know more about this.
  2. If you want to exclude just a few values, use a condition within the filter in the Search and Select option  to only select the required supplier which can be specific to company code or country etc, or use "DEFINE CONDITIONS" to fit for your purpose.
  3. If performance issues or memory problems are encountered, split the payment run into batches based on supplier number or document range.
