• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_EHFND_COMN076 - Too many entries with &1 &2 to be displayed in a list ?

  The SAP error message CM_EHFND_COMN076 indicates that there are too many entries (more than the system can handle) for a specific query or list display. This typically occurs when a user attempts to display a list of items that exceeds the maximum limit set by the system.
  Cause:
  
  Excessive Data: The query or selection criteria used retrieves a large number of records, exceeding the display limit.
  System Configuration: The system may have a predefined limit for the number of entries that can be displayed in a list, which is often set for performance reasons.
  Inefficient Query: The selection criteria may not be specific enough, leading to a broad result set.
  
  Solution:
  
  Refine Selection Criteria: Narrow down the search parameters to reduce the number of entries returned. This can include adding filters or using more specific search terms.
  Pagination: If the application supports it, implement pagination to view the data in smaller chunks rather than all at once.
  Increase Display Limit: If you have the necessary permissions and it is appropriate for your use case, you can adjust the system settings to increase the maximum number of entries displayed. This typically requires access to system configuration settings.
  Use Alternative Reports: If available, consider using alternative reports or transaction codes that are designed to handle larger datasets more efficiently.
