Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PLM_FMEA_APPL607 - A maximum of eight views are permitted per risk analysis profile ?

  The SAP error message PLM_FMEA_APPL607 indicates that you have exceeded the maximum limit of eight views allowed for a risk analysis profile in the FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) module of SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management). This error typically occurs when you attempt to add more than eight views to a single risk analysis profile.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is the attempt to create or modify a risk analysis profile by adding more than the permitted number of views. Each view represents a different perspective or analysis of the risks associated with a particular process or product, and SAP has set a limit to ensure performance and manageability.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Existing Views: Check the current views associated with the risk analysis profile. You can do this by navigating to the relevant FMEA transaction in SAP and reviewing the views that have already been created.
  
  
  Remove Unnecessary Views: If you find that there are views that are not needed or are redundant, consider removing them to free up space for new views. You can typically do this by selecting the view and using the delete option.
  
  
  Consolidate Views: If possible, consolidate the information from multiple views into fewer views. This may involve combining similar analyses or perspectives into a single view.
  
  
  Create a New Risk Analysis Profile: If you need to maintain all existing views and cannot remove or consolidate any, consider creating a new risk analysis profile. This new profile can then accommodate additional views without exceeding the limit.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help resources for FMEA to understand best practices for managing views and risk analysis profiles.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If you continue to experience issues or if the error persists despite following the above steps, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.
