How To Fix EC107 - Cannot perform any more inserts

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: EC - Development environment: Menu Painter

• Message number: 107

• Message text: Cannot perform any more inserts

What causes this issue?

You attempted to insert a line into a pull-down menu that is already
full. According to the standards, no more than 15 entries are allowed.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Check whether you can reassign some functions to a cascading menu or
whether you can delete any separator lines.
Both these procedures have disadvantages. Cascading menus make the
superior menu simpler, but the user has to open more menus to access
the desired function. Also, if a menu with several entries contains no
separator line, it is more difficult to find the 'right' function.
You can alleviate the effect of deeply nested menus by using them to
hold rarely needed functions. Then, you can assign those functions that
are likely to be used frequently, to function keys and pushbuttons.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EC107 - Cannot perform any more inserts ?

  The SAP error message EC107, which states "Cannot perform any more inserts," typically occurs when the system has reached a limit on the number of records that can be inserted into a particular database table or when there are issues related to database constraints or locks.
  Causes:
  
  Database Table Limitations: Some database tables have a maximum number of records they can hold, and if this limit is reached, further inserts will be blocked.
  Locking Issues: If a table is locked by another transaction, it may prevent new inserts from being performed.
  Database Constraints: Constraints such as primary keys, unique indexes, or foreign keys may prevent new records from being inserted if they violate these constraints.
  Transaction Limits: There may be limits on the number of records that can be inserted in a single transaction.
  System Configuration: Configuration settings in the SAP system or the underlying database may restrict the number of inserts.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Table Size: Verify if the table has reached its maximum size. If so, consider archiving old data or increasing the table size if possible.
  Release Locks: Check for any locks on the table using transaction codes like SM12 (for lock entries) and release them if necessary.
  Review Constraints: Examine the constraints on the table to ensure that the data being inserted does not violate any rules. You can use transaction SE11 to view the table structure and constraints.
  Batch Inserts: If you are trying to insert a large number of records, consider breaking them into smaller batches to avoid hitting transaction limits.
  Database Maintenance: Perform regular database maintenance tasks such as reorganization or cleanup to ensure optimal performance and avoid hitting limits.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP notes and documentation related to the specific error message for any additional guidance or patches that may be available.
