• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_EHHSS_INC_XML000 - Too many lines selected; max. allowed: &1 ?

  The SAP error message CM_EHHSS_INC_XML000 indicates that a query or operation has attempted to select more lines than the maximum allowed limit set in the system. This is a common issue when dealing with large datasets or when the configuration limits are not aligned with the data being processed.
  Cause:
  
  Exceeding Limit: The primary cause of this error is that the number of lines (or records) being selected exceeds the predefined maximum limit set in the SAP system.
  Configuration Settings: The maximum number of lines allowed for selection might be configured in the system settings, and the current operation is trying to fetch more than this limit.
  Inefficient Query: The query or selection criteria might be too broad, resulting in a large number of records being selected.
  
  Solution:
  
  Adjust Selection Criteria: Refine the selection criteria to limit the number of records being fetched. This can involve adding filters or conditions to narrow down the results.
  Increase Maximum Limit: If appropriate, consult with your SAP Basis or system administrator to see if the maximum allowed limit can be increased. This is usually done in the system configuration settings.
  Batch Processing: If the operation involves processing a large dataset, consider implementing batch processing to handle smaller chunks of data at a time.
  Review Query Logic: If you are using custom queries or reports, review the logic to ensure it is optimized and does not inadvertently select excessive records.
