Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_TASK078 - There are more than &1 tasks that match the selection criteria ?

  The SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_TASK078 indicates that a query or selection you are trying to perform has returned more tasks than the system is configured to handle at once. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, particularly when dealing with task management or project management functionalities.
  Cause:
  
  Excessive Task Count: The selection criteria you have used in your query or report has resulted in more tasks being retrieved than the system can process. This could be due to broad selection criteria that encompass many tasks.
  System Configuration: There may be a limit set in the system configuration that restricts the number of tasks that can be processed or displayed at one time.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Refine Selection Criteria: Narrow down your selection criteria to reduce the number of tasks returned. This can be done by:
  
  Adding more specific filters (e.g., date ranges, task types, statuses).
  Using additional parameters to limit the scope of the query.
  
  
  
  Check System Settings: If you have access to system configuration settings, check if there is a configurable limit for the number of tasks that can be processed. If you have the necessary permissions, you may be able to adjust this limit.
  
  
  Batch Processing: If the task count is inherently high and cannot be reduced, consider processing the tasks in smaller batches. This may involve breaking down the selection into multiple queries that each return a manageable number of tasks.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or help resources related to the specific module you are working with for any additional guidance on handling large task sets.
  
  
  Contact Support: If the issue persists or if you are unsure how to proceed, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with SAP support for further assistance.
