• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /LTB/TR_MODEL009 - Too many exporting parameters defined in &1 ?

  The SAP error message /LTB/TR_MODEL009 Too many exporting parameters defined in &1 typically occurs in the context of ABAP programming, particularly when dealing with function modules or methods that have a limit on the number of exporting parameters they can handle.
  Cause:
  The error indicates that a function module or method has been defined with more exporting parameters than the system allows. In SAP, there are limits on the number of parameters that can be exported from a function module or method, and exceeding this limit will trigger this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review the Function Module/Method Definition:
  
  Check the definition of the function module or method that is causing the error. Look for the number of exporting parameters defined.
  
  
  
  Reduce the Number of Exporting Parameters:
  
  If possible, reduce the number of exporting parameters. You can do this by:
  
  Combining multiple parameters into a single structure or table.
  Using importing parameters instead of exporting parameters where applicable.
  Returning values through a single output parameter (like a structure) instead of multiple individual parameters.
  
  
  
  
  
  Refactor Code:
  
  If the function module or method is too complex, consider refactoring the code. Break down the functionality into smaller, more manageable pieces that can be called separately.
  
  
  
  Check for Unused Parameters:
  
  Sometimes, parameters may be defined but not used. Remove any unnecessary exporting parameters.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or the ABAP programming guidelines for any specific limits on exporting parameters for the version of SAP you are using.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, thoroughly test the function/module to ensure that it still behaves as expected and that the error is resolved.
