SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: IUUC_MAIN - IUUC: Main Message class

• Message number: 089

• Message text: Delimitation not possible for table &1

What causes this issue?

It was tried to determine delimitation values for a certain field of a
table. However, it turned out that for a certain value of this field,
there are more unprocessed logging table records than requested.
Example: you requested that a delimitation should be determined such
that each access plan should contain 500,000 records of the logging
table. However, there are 800,000 records in this logging table having
the same value for the delimitation field

System Response

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

How to fix this error?

You could either choose another primary key field of the original table
for which this problem won't occur, and specify this field in table
IUUC_PERF_OPTION. However, this will take effect only in the next test
or productive run (only then, a new logging table will be created which
will consider this change).
For the current run, you might increase the number of records for which
the same value in this field is allowed. In the above example,
increasing the number from 500,000 to 1,000,000
