SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: COM_PRODUCT_WB_UI - Product Maintenance

• Message number: 103

• Message text: More than & products found; display limited to &

What causes this issue?

Products selected according to ID are not necessarily displayed in
alphabetical order, as the entries are selected by the database system
using an internal algorithm.
For example, you search for products A* and there are more than 100
products in the locator. Not all A* products are displayed at the top of
the list. You may see AA, AB, AD, but AC may come after the 100 products
displayed and would not be visible. It would therefore appear that there
are gaps in the list.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COM_PRODUCT_WB_UI103 - More than & products found; display limited to & ?

  The SAP error message COM_PRODUCT_WB_UI103 indicates that a query or search has returned more products than the system is configured to display at one time. The message typically states something like "More than & products found; display limited to &," where the first "&" represents the total number of products found, and the second "&" indicates the maximum number of products that can be displayed in the current context.
  Cause:
  
  Exceeding Display Limit: The system has a predefined limit on the number of products that can be displayed in a single view or search result. When the number of products exceeds this limit, the system restricts the display to the maximum allowed.
  Search Criteria: The search criteria used may be too broad, resulting in a large number of products being returned.
  Configuration Settings: The display limit may be set in the system configuration, which can vary based on the specific implementation or version of SAP being used.
  
  Solution:
  
  Refine Search Criteria: Narrow down the search parameters to reduce the number of products returned. This can include adding filters or specifying more detailed search terms.
  Adjust Display Settings: If you have the necessary permissions, you can check the configuration settings in the SAP system to see if the display limit can be increased. This may involve working with your SAP administrator or IT department.
  Pagination: If the system supports it, use pagination to view additional products in subsequent pages rather than trying to display all results at once.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling this error message in your version of SAP.
