• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RAP_RUNTIME015 - Page size overrun: Query implementation of '&1' returned too many records ?

  The SAP error message RAP_RUNTIME015 indicates that a query implementation in the RAP (Rapid Application Programming) model has returned more records than the allowed page size. This typically occurs when a query is executed that retrieves a large number of records, exceeding the limit set for pagination.
  Cause:
  
  Exceeding Page Size Limit: The default page size limit for queries in the RAP model is typically set to a certain number (e.g., 1000 records). If the query implementation returns more records than this limit, the error will be triggered.
  Inefficient Query Logic: The query might be designed in a way that it retrieves more records than necessary, possibly due to a lack of filtering or incorrect logic in the query definition.
  Data Volume: The underlying data might have a large volume, and the query is not adequately restricted to return a manageable subset of records.
  
  Solution:
  
  Adjust Query Logic: Review the query implementation to ensure that it includes appropriate filters to limit the number of records returned. This can involve adding selection criteria or refining the query logic.
  Implement Pagination: If the application requires displaying large datasets, consider implementing pagination in the UI or the backend logic to handle the data in smaller chunks.
  Increase Page Size (if applicable): If the business requirement allows, you can increase the page size limit in the RAP configuration. However, this should be done cautiously, as it may lead to performance issues if too many records are processed at once.
  Use Aggregation: If applicable, consider using aggregation functions to summarize data instead of retrieving all records.
  Check for Performance Issues: Analyze the performance of the query to ensure it is optimized. Use tools like SQL trace or performance analysis tools in SAP to identify bottlenecks.
  
  Related Information:
  
  RAP Model Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation on the RAP model for best practices on query implementation and pagination.
