• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDM_COLL_01007 - Number of business partners to be updated in company code &1: &2 ?

  The SAP error message FDM_COLL_01007 indicates that there is an issue with the number of business partners that are being updated in a specific company code. The message typically appears when the system is trying to process a large number of business partners, and it exceeds the allowed limit for a single update operation.
  Cause:
  
  Exceeding Limit: The error is primarily caused by attempting to update more business partners than the system allows in a single transaction. This limit can be set in the system configuration.
  Configuration Settings: The system may have specific settings that restrict the number of business partners that can be processed at once, which can vary based on the organization's requirements or system performance considerations.
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be underlying data integrity issues that prevent the update from being processed correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  Batch Processing: Instead of trying to update all business partners at once, break the update into smaller batches that comply with the system's limits. This can often be done by processing a subset of business partners in multiple transactions.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings related to business partner updates in the SAP system. If necessary, consult with your SAP Basis or functional team to adjust the limits if they are set too low for your business needs.
  Data Validation: Ensure that the data for the business partners being updated is valid and does not contain any inconsistencies or errors that could cause the update to fail.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the FDM_COLL_01007 error for any specific recommendations or updates that may apply to your version of SAP.
