• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message E7202 - The number of hits was limited, results may be incomplete ?

  The SAP error message E7202, which states "The number of hits was limited, results may be incomplete," typically occurs when a search or query in SAP returns a large number of results, and the system has a predefined limit on the number of results it can display. This is often seen in various SAP modules, including SAP ERP, SAP BW, and others, where users are trying to retrieve data from large datasets.
  
  Cause:
  
  Result Set Limitations: SAP systems often have default settings that limit the number of records returned in a single query to optimize performance and avoid overwhelming the user interface.
  Configuration Settings: The limit can be configured in the system settings, which may be set to a lower value to enhance performance or due to system constraints.
  Search Criteria: The search criteria used may be too broad, resulting in a large number of hits that exceed the limit.
