• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TR_AUSL623 - Table contains too many fields ?

  The SAP error message TR_AUSL623, which states "Table contains too many fields," typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify a table in the Data Dictionary (SE11) or when you are working with a structure that exceeds the maximum number of fields allowed by SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Exceeding Field Limit: SAP has a limit on the number of fields that can be defined in a table or structure. This limit is generally 1,000 fields for a table.
  Design Issues: Sometimes, the design of the data model may lead to an excessive number of fields in a single table, which can be a sign of poor normalization or design practices.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Table Design: Analyze the table structure and see if it can be normalized. Consider breaking the table into multiple related tables to reduce the number of fields in any single table.
  Use Structures: If you have a lot of fields that are logically grouped together, consider using structures to encapsulate related fields and then reference these structures in your main table.
  Field Grouping: If applicable, group fields into substructures or use field groups to reduce the number of fields directly in the table.
  Check for Redundant Fields: Review the fields in the table to identify any that may be redundant or unnecessary. Remove or consolidate these fields if possible.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or guidelines on table design to ensure compliance with best practices.
