• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DH122 - Collective search help contains more than & elementary search helps ?

  The SAP error message DH122 indicates that a collective search help contains more than the allowed number of elementary search helps. In SAP, a collective search help is a grouping of multiple elementary search helps that can be used to provide a unified search interface for users. However, there is a limit to the number of elementary search helps that can be included in a single collective search help.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to create or use a collective search help that exceeds the maximum limit of elementary search helps. This limit is typically set by the SAP system and can vary based on the version and configuration of the system.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review the Collective Search Help: Check the collective search help that is causing the error. Identify how many elementary search helps are included.
  
  
  Reduce the Number of Elementary Search Helps: If the number of elementary search helps exceeds the limit, you will need to reduce the number. You can do this by:
  
  Removing some elementary search helps from the collective search help.
  Creating additional collective search helps if you need to group the elementary search helps differently.
  
  
  
  Check SAP Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help resources for the specific version of SAP you are using to confirm the maximum number of elementary search helps allowed in a collective search help.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary adjustments, test the collective search help to ensure that it functions correctly without triggering the error.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) to manage search helps.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might provide additional insights or updates regarding this error.
  Performance Considerations: Keep in mind that having too many elementary search helps in a single collective search help can also impact performance, so it's advisable to keep the number manageable.
