• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IH111 - You have marked more than 255 entries ?

  The SAP error message IH111 ("You have marked more than 255 entries") typically occurs in the context of handling multiple entries in a transaction or report, particularly when dealing with lists or selections that exceed the limit of 255 entries. This limit is often encountered in various SAP modules, including those related to maintenance, inventory, or production.
  
  Cause:
  The error arises because SAP has a technical limitation where certain operations, such as marking or selecting entries in a list, are restricted to a maximum of 255 entries. When a user attempts to mark or select more than this limit, the system generates the IH111 error message.
