• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_ICM_UI020 - Cannot select more than &1 entries ?

  The SAP error message "CRM_ICM_UI020 Cannot select more than &1 entries" typically occurs in the SAP Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system when a user attempts to select more entries than the system allows in a particular context, such as in a list or selection screen. The "&1" in the message indicates the maximum number of entries that can be selected.
  Cause:
  
  Selection Limit: The error is primarily caused by exceeding the predefined limit of selectable entries in a list or table. This limit is set to ensure system performance and usability.
  Configuration Settings: The limit may be configured in the system settings, and it can vary based on the specific transaction or application.
  User Interface Constraints: The user interface may have constraints that prevent selecting too many items at once to avoid performance degradation.
  
  Solution:
  
  Reduce Selection: The most straightforward solution is to reduce the number of selected entries to the allowed limit. Check the error message for the maximum number of entries you can select (indicated by "&1") and ensure your selection does not exceed this number.
  Batch Processing: If you need to process a large number of entries, consider breaking them into smaller batches that comply with the selection limit.
  Check Configuration: If you believe the limit is too restrictive for your business needs, consult with your SAP administrator or technical team to review and potentially adjust the configuration settings that govern the selection limits.
  User Training: Ensure that users are aware of the selection limits and provide training on how to effectively manage their selections within the system.
