• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message >U385 - Maximum number of 99,999 items in account statement &1 exceeded ?

  The SAP error message "U385 Maximum number of 99,999 items in account statement &1 exceeded" indicates that the system has reached the limit of 99,999 line items that can be displayed or processed in a single account statement. This is a common issue when dealing with large volumes of transactions in financial accounting.
  Cause:
  
  High Volume of Transactions: The primary cause of this error is that the account statement being generated contains more than 99,999 line items. This can happen in accounts with a high frequency of transactions, such as accounts payable or receivable.
  Configuration Limits: The system is configured to limit the number of items displayed in a single account statement for performance reasons.
  
  Solution:
  
  Filter Transactions: When generating the account statement, apply filters to limit the date range or specific transaction types. This can help reduce the number of line items to below the threshold.
  Use Pagination: If the system supports it, consider using pagination or breaking down the report into smaller segments. For example, generate multiple statements for different periods (e.g., monthly or quarterly).
  Adjust Configuration (if applicable): In some cases, it may be possible to adjust system settings to increase the limit, but this should be done with caution and typically requires consulting with your SAP Basis or technical team.
  Use Alternative Reports: Instead of using the standard account statement report, consider using alternative reports or transaction codes that can handle larger datasets or provide summarized information.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or updates that may address this issue or provide additional guidance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes related to account statements, such as FBL1N (Vendor Line Item Display), FBL3N (G/L Account Line Item Display), or FBL5N (Customer Line Item Display).
  Performance Considerations: Be aware that generating reports with a high number of line items can impact system performance. Always consider the implications of large data sets on system resources.
  SAP Support: If the issue persists or if you need further assistance, consider reaching out to SAP Support for more tailored solutions or guidance based on your specific system configuration.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and generate the necessary account statements without exceeding the item limit.
