  The SAP error message UJXF_EXCEPTION008: Maximum file size exceeded, check environment parameter setting typically occurs when you are trying to upload or process a file that exceeds the maximum file size limit set in the SAP environment. This can happen in various contexts, such as data uploads, file transfers, or batch processing.
  Cause:
  
  File Size Limit: The error indicates that the file you are trying to upload or process exceeds the maximum file size limit defined in the SAP system settings.
  Environment Parameter: The specific parameter that controls the maximum file size is not set appropriately, leading to this error when the file size exceeds the defined limit.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Current Settings:
  
  Use transaction code RZ11 to check the current value of the parameter that controls the maximum file size. The parameter you are looking for is typically max_file_size or similar, depending on the context of the upload.
  
  
  
  Increase the Maximum File Size:
  
  If the current setting is too low for your needs, you can increase the maximum file size limit. This can be done by:
  
  Using transaction code RZ11 to change the parameter value temporarily.
  For a permanent change, you may need to update the parameter in the instance profile using transaction code RZ10.
  After making changes, you may need to restart the SAP instance for the changes to take effect.
  
  
  
  
  
  File Size Management:
  
  If increasing the file size limit is not feasible or desirable, consider splitting the file into smaller parts that are within the allowed size limit and then processing them individually.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to file uploads and parameter settings for more specific guidance based on your SAP version and configuration.
