  The SAP error message E0747, which states "IDoc: No. of objects received is different from no. of objects sent," typically occurs during the processing of IDocs (Intermediate Documents) in SAP. This error indicates a mismatch between the number of IDocs that were sent from the sender system and the number that were received in the receiver system.
  Causes:
  
  Network Issues: Temporary network issues may cause some IDocs to be lost during transmission.
  IDoc Processing Errors: If there are errors in processing the IDocs on the receiver side, it may not acknowledge all the IDocs sent.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration in the IDoc processing settings, such as partner profiles or port settings, can lead to discrepancies.
  Batch Processing: If IDocs are processed in batches, and some IDocs fail while others succeed, this can lead to a mismatch.
  Manual Interventions: Manual changes or deletions of IDocs in the receiver system can also cause this error.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check IDoc Status: Use transaction code WE02 or WE05 to check the status of the IDocs. Look for any IDocs that are in error status and analyze the error messages.
  Reprocess IDocs: If you find IDocs that failed, you can reprocess them using transaction code BD87 or by using the appropriate function module.
  Review Configuration: Ensure that the partner profiles (transaction code WE20) and port settings (transaction code WE21) are correctly configured.
  Monitor Network Stability: Check for any network issues that may have caused the IDocs to not be transmitted properly.
  Check Application Logs: Use transaction SLG1 to check application logs for any related errors that might provide more context on the issue.
  Adjust Batch Size: If you are processing IDocs in batches, consider reducing the batch size to minimize the impact of any single IDoc failure.
