37754 - Details

• The SAP error message "37754: Screen limit exceeded (element not moved)" typically occurs when there are too many screen elements (like fields, buttons, etc.) defined in a screen (dynpro) in an SAP program. This can happen in custom programs or modifications where the number of elements exceeds the allowed limit for a single screen.
  
  Cause:
  
  Exceeding Element Limit: Each screen in SAP has a limit on the number of elements it can contain. If this limit is exceeded, the system cannot process the screen correctly, leading to this error.
  Complex Screen Design: Screens that are overly complex or have many dynamic elements can easily hit this limit.
  Incorrect Screen Layout: Sometimes, the layout of the screen may not be optimized, leading to unnecessary elements being added.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Reduce Screen Elements: Review the screen design and remove any unnecessary elements. This could involve:
  
  Combining fields where possible.
  Using tab strips or subscreens to organize elements better.
  Removing any redundant buttons
