• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PSSC_NET001 - Net calculation document has too many items (pmnt. frequency period &3) ?

  The SAP error message PSSC_NET001 indicates that a net calculation document has exceeded the maximum number of items allowed for a specific payment frequency period. This typically occurs in the context of payroll or financial processing where a large number of items (such as deductions, earnings, or other financial entries) are being processed for a given period.
  Cause:

  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for the payment frequency in the relevant SAP module (e.g., Payroll). You may need to adjust the maximum number of items allowed for that frequency.
  
  This can typically be done in the customizing settings (transaction code SPRO) under the relevant payroll or financial module.
