INV071 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: INV - Check for Bill Receipt

• Message number: 071

• Message text: Buffering not possible, more than &1 points of delivery to be processed

What causes this issue?

To prevent a main memory overflow occurring, data can only be buffered
up to a maximum number of points of delivery. The current process is to
process documents for more than the defined limit of &v1& points of
delivery.

System Response

The process is resumed without using a data buffer.

How to fix this error?

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

Procedure for System Administrators

If you want to use the buffer despite the limit being exceeded, you can
define your own implementation in BAdI INV_INVPROC_PREFBUF_FACT (for
processing bill documents), and replace the value of the constant
CO_BUFFER_LIMIT with a higher value.
