• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FTI_LDB_MESSAGE085 - Maximum size of a data package for data transfer is reached ?

  The SAP error message FTI_LDB_MESSAGE085 indicates that the maximum size of a data package for data transfer has been reached. This typically occurs during data extraction or transfer processes, such as when using the SAP Data Transfer Workbench or during data uploads.
  Cause:
  
  Data Package Size Limit: SAP has a predefined limit for the size of data packages that can be processed in a single transaction. When the data being transferred exceeds this limit, the error is triggered.
  Configuration Settings: The settings in the system for data transfer might be configured to allow only a certain amount of data to be processed at once.
  Large Data Volume: If you are trying to transfer a large volume of data in one go, it can easily exceed the maximum size limit.
  
  Solution:
  
  Reduce Data Volume: Split the data into smaller chunks and try transferring them in multiple smaller packages instead of one large package.
  Adjust Configuration: If you have access to system settings, you may be able to adjust the maximum data package size. This can usually be done in the relevant configuration settings for data transfer.
  Check for Updates: Ensure that your SAP system is up to date, as there may be patches or updates that address this issue.
  Use Batch Processing: If applicable, consider using batch processing techniques to handle large data transfers more efficiently.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to data transfer limits and best practices for handling large datasets.
