Message text: Hierarchy &1 contains more than 1 million entries
The internal display of hierarchy &V1& for characteristic &V2& contains

RH228
- Hierarchy &1 contains more than 1 million entries ?The SAP error message RH228 indicates that a hierarchy contains more than 1 million entries, which exceeds the system's limit for processing such hierarchies. This can occur in various contexts, such as when working with organizational structures, reporting hierarchies, or other hierarchical data structures in SAP.
Cause: Exceeding Limits: The primary cause of this error is that the hierarchy being processed has more than 1 million entries, which is the maximum limit for certain operations in SAP. Data Volume: Large datasets or extensive organizational structures can lead to this situation, especially in large enterprises with complex hierarchies. Inefficient Design: Sometimes, the design of the hierarchy may not be optimal, leading to unnecessary complexity and size.
Solution: Reduce Hierarchy Size: Filter Data: If possible, filter the data to reduce the number of entries in the hierarchy. This can be done by limiting the scope of the hierarchy to only the relevant entries needed for the analysis or reporting. Aggregate
