• Key Concepts: 
  A limiter is a feature in SAP's SCM-Master Data component that allows users to set limits on the amount of material that can be stored in a warehouse. This helps to ensure that the warehouse does not become overstocked and that the materials are used efficiently. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the limiter feature, users must first set up a limit for each material in the warehouse. This can be done by entering the desired limit into the “Limiter” field in the material master data. Once this is done, the system will automatically prevent any further storage of the material once the limit has been reached. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to regularly review and update the limits set for each material in order to ensure that they are still appropriate. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all materials have a limit set, as this will help to prevent overstocking of materials in the warehouse.
