• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DDVIDB359 - Result length & of function & is > 1333 ?

  The SAP error message DDVIDB359 indicates that the result length of a function exceeds the maximum allowed length of 1333 characters. This error typically occurs in the context of database views or function modules where the output length of a result set is being restricted.
  Cause:
  
  Function Module Output: The function module or database view is designed to return a result set that exceeds the maximum length of 1333 characters. This can happen if the data being processed is too large or if the structure of the output is not properly defined.
  Data Structure: The data structure used in the function module may not be optimized, leading to larger-than-expected output sizes.
  Concatenation of Fields: If multiple fields are concatenated into a single output field, the total length may exceed the limit.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Function Module: Check the function module or database view definition to ensure that the output length is within the allowed limit. You may need to modify the output structure to reduce the length.
  Split Output: If the output is too large, consider splitting the output into multiple fields or records instead of returning a single large result.
  Optimize Data Retrieval: Review the logic used to retrieve data. If unnecessary fields are included in the output, remove them to reduce the overall length.
  Use Sub-structures: If applicable, use sub-structures to break down the output into manageable parts.
  Check Data Types: Ensure that the data types used in the function module are appropriate and do not lead to excessive length.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common problems.
