Symptom
Requirement to raise tolerance limits from 99,999,999,999 to 999,999,999,999 for "Amount per document" and "Amount per open item account item" field in configuration "Define Tolerance Groups for Employees" (ID: 102832).
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the configuration activity "Define Tolerance Groups for Employees" (ID: 102832).
- Navigate to the settings for amounts and locate "amount per open item account item".
- Enter a value of 999,999,999,999.
- Save the configuration and observe that the system returns the error "Entry too long".
Cause
The backend amount field supports a maximum of 13 digits in total (including 2 decimal places), allowing only up to 11 digits for the integer part; values exceeding this limit cause the "Entry too long" error.
Resolution
- Maintain tolerance amounts at or below 99,999,999,999.99 to comply with the 13-digit total (11-digit integer + 2 decimals) limit.
- If business requires posting an amount whose integer part exceeds 11 digits, split the posting into two or more items so each item remains within the allowed limit.
