This error indicates that the quantity being processed exceeds a predefined limit set in the system. Here are some potential causes, solutions, and related information for this error:

    Causes:

    1. Limit Quantity Configuration: The system may have a limit set for certain materials or products, which restricts the maximum quantity that can be processed in a single transaction.
    2. Sales Order or Delivery Restrictions: There may be specific restrictions on sales orders or deliveries that prevent processing quantities above a certain threshold.
    3. Batch Management: If batch management is enabled, the error may arise if the quantity exceeds the available stock in a specific batch.

    2. Adjust Quantity: If the limit is valid and necessary, consider adjusting the quantity being processed to comply with the limit.
    3. Review Sales Order or Delivery: If the error occurs during sales order processing, check the sales order for any restrictions or conditions that may be causing the limit to be enforced.
    4. Consult with Configuration Team: If you believe the limit is too restrictive, consult with your SAP configuration team to discuss the possibility of adjusting the limit settings.
    5. Batch Availability Check: If batch management is involved, ensure that the required quantity is available in the appropriate batch.
