How To Fix 01628 - Not possible to add further nodes

01628 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 01 -

• Message number: 628

• Message text: Not possible to add further nodes

What causes this issue?

You have expanded a hierarchy tree. It is essential that every new node
be assigned a unique key (used as an internal ID for the node). The
generation of a new key failed.

System Response

The program terminates.

How to fix this error?

Restarting the program may fix the problem. This problem only occurs if
a large number of node keys (>100000) have the same first 12
characters. If you have been using the program for a long time since
the last restart, the supply of available keys may have been used up.
New keys are available after restarting the program.
The likelihood that this error will occur is very low. If you do not
have an enormous number of almost identical entries in the hierarchy
tree, the error may be due to a program error.

  Node Limit Reached: Each hierarchy or data structure in SAP has a predefined limit on the number of nodes (or levels) that can be added. If you attempt to add more nodes than allowed, this error will be triggered.
  Configuration Settings: The system may have specific configuration settings that limit the number of nodes for performance or design reasons.
  Data Model Design: The design of the data model may not accommodate additional nodes due to its structure or relationships.
