Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSR_EXCEL_RUNTIME132 - Resultset for &1 (&2) too large (&3 cells); maximum configured to &4. ?

  The SAP error message RSR_EXCEL_RUNTIME132 indicates that the result set generated by a query is too large to be processed and exported to Excel. This error typically occurs when the number of cells in the result set exceeds the maximum limit configured in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the result set exceeding the maximum number of cells allowed for export to Excel. The limits can vary based on the configuration settings in the SAP system, but generally, Excel has a limit on the number of rows and columns it can handle, and SAP has its own limits for exporting data.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can consider the following approaches:
  
  
  Reduce the Result Set Size:
  
  Modify the query to limit the number of rows returned. You can apply filters or aggregate data to reduce the size of the result set.
  Use selection criteria to narrow down the data being exported.
  
  
  
  Change Configuration Settings:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can increase the maximum number of cells allowed for export in the SAP configuration settings. This is typically done in the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) settings.
  Consult with your SAP Basis or BW administrator to adjust the settings if necessary.
  
  
  
  Export in Batches:
  
  If the data is too large to export in one go, consider exporting the data in smaller batches. You can split the data based on certain criteria (e.g., date ranges, categories) and export them separately.
  
  
  
  Use Alternative Formats:
  
  If Excel is not a strict requirement, consider exporting the data in other formats (e.g., CSV, text files) that may not have the same limitations.
  
  
  
  Check for Updates:
  
  Ensure that your SAP system is up to date, as newer versions may have improved handling for large datasets.
