  Increase Display Limit: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can increase the maximum number of entries that can be displayed in the error handling log. This can usually be done in the configuration settings of the AIF.
  Filter Entries: Use filters to narrow down the entries displayed in the error log. This can help you focus on the most relevant errors without hitting the display limit.
  Archive Old Entries: Regularly archive or delete old error entries to free up space in the error handling log. This can be done through the AIF transaction codes or custom programs that manage error logs.
  Review Error Handling Strategy: Assess your error handling strategy to ensure that it is efficient and that errors are being resolved in a timely manner. This can help prevent the log from becoming overloaded.
