  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message U6034 - Maximum worklist reached ?

    The SAP error message U6034, which states "Maximum worklist reached," typically occurs when a user tries to access a worklist that has exceeded the maximum number of entries allowed. This can happen in various SAP modules, particularly in workflow scenarios where tasks are assigned to users.

    Cause:

    1. Worklist Limit Exceeded: Each user has a limit on the number of items that can be displayed in their worklist. When this limit is reached, the system will not allow any additional items to be added.
    2. Configuration Settings: The maximum number of worklist entries can be configured in the system settings, and it may be set too low for the user's needs.
    3. System Performance: In some cases, performance issues or system constraints may lead to the inability to process additional worklist items.

    Solution:

    1. Clear Worklist: The most immediate solution is to clear out some items from the worklist. Users can do this by completing, deleting, or archiving tasks that are no longer needed.
    2. Increase Worklist Limit: If the worklist limit is set too low, a system administrator can increase the maximum number of entries allowed in the worklist. This can typically be done in the system configuration settings.
    3. Review Workflow Configuration: Check the workflow configuration to ensure that it is set up correctly and that tasks are being processed efficiently.
    4. User Training: Ensure that users are trained on how to manage their worklists effectively, including how to complete or delete tasks that are no longer relevant.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use specific transaction codes to manage workflows or worklists, such as SWI1 (Work Item Selection) or SWI2_FREQ (Work Items by Frequency).
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this issue or provide additional guidance on managing worklists.
    • System Performance Monitoring: Regularly monitor system performance to ensure that it can handle the workload and that users are not facing unnecessary limitations.

    If the problem persists after trying these solutions, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP Basis team or SAP support for further assistance.
