Maximum number of line items in sales order

hi,
Is there a limit on the maximum number of line items that are permitted in a sales order?
Thanks,
Shailaja

Hi
I think the correct reply would be 999,999 because data type of item number POSNR is NUM 6, which means that it can hold upto value 999,999.
However, at the same time keep the following into consideration:
1. FI document has a restriction of 999 line items per document. So, depending on the account settings, there will be a lower limit. E.g. if each Sales order line item results in 2 line items in the accounting document, then the max. no. of SO line items is limited to 499.
2. If FI summarization is active, then the system summarizes the account postings, thus reducing the no. of FI line items. Hence, a SO can accomodate more than 999 line items. However, this means that certain line item level details will not be available to the Finance guys (which they may not like).
3. As the number of line items in a Sales order increases, the system performance suffers greatly. There are performance fixes available, but in general, it is painful to load a SO with large no. of line times through BDC's. 10 Sales orders with 100 lines each consume less system resources than 1 Sales order with 1000 lines.

the maximum limit of line items are as follows
order-9999
for delivery and invocie , it is restricted to 999 accouitng line items. since the tranfer to accounting can handle only 999 items , the restriction on delivery and invocie
ex if there are excise postings, for a single line , there might be 5/6 lines genetrated for each line in invocie , therfore as per this the line in invocie get restricted

Maximum number of line items

Dear All,
I am facing an issue in the maximum number of line items EBP purchase order.
We are in SRM 4.0 using extended classic scenario.
In EBP PO, if the number of line items is more than 50 then we are getting the dump error "Field symbol has not yet been assigned" when we try to display the PO in Process purchase order transaction.
In process purchase order, if we click on the start after enting the PO number then it is giving the dump error. But we could able to display the PO by clicking on the details icon of the PO after searching with time frame.
Dump error is occuring only when we try open the PO header node to see the list of items of the PO. Until the PO is having 50 line items we dont have a problem. If the PO is having 51st item then we are getting the dump error.
Have anyone faced this issue? Please help me to resolve this.
Thanks.

Pradeep,
Dump error details:
What happened?
    Error in ABAP application program.
    The current ABAP program "SAPLBBP_PDH_SEARCH" had to be terminated because one
     of the
    statements could not be executed.
    This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
Error analysis
    You attempted to access an unassigned field symbol
    (data segment 32774).
    This error may occur for any of the following reasons:
    - You address a typed field symbol before it is set using ASSIGN
    - You address a field symbol that points to a line in an internal table
      that has been deleted
    - You address a field symbol that had previously been reset using
      UNASSIGN, or that pointed to a local field that no longer exists
    - You address a global function interface parameter, even
      though the relevant function module is not active,
      that is it is not in the list of active calls. You can get the list
      of active calls from the this short dump.
Information on where terminated
    The termination occurred in the ABAP program "SAPLBBP_PDH_SEARCH" in
     "SUB_LIST_GET".
    The main program was "SAPLBBP_PO_UI_ITS ".
    The termination occurred in line 191 of the source code of the (Include)
     program "LBBP_PDH_SEARCHF10"
    of the source code of program "LBBP_PDH_SEARCHF10" (when calling the editor
     1910).
Thanks.

What is the maximum number of line items we can enter in an order...

Hi,
Can anyone explain what is the max number of line items that v can enter in an order....
or if i want to increase the number of line items than the max where it is controlled.
Because my mm counter part is facing this in the PO he could make only 9999,the problem is when posting...the accounting document is not getting generated bcas of exceeding the limit.
venugopal

hi,
this is my personal experiance that we can enter at the most 499 line items in SALES ORDER.
This is because for every line item there will be 2 financial entries, debit and credit. and 1 FI document can have at the most 999 line items (which we can not increase without KEY fromSAP)
If we divide 999 by 2 then it comes to 499.50 so you can enter at the most 499 line items in Sales order.

Automatically add line-items to sales orders

Hello,
Our client needs us to add line items to sales orders. The requirement is such that, when the users enter a material on a line item, they wish to see few more materials automatically added as new line items -- item category to be maintained as "Free" items. This appears similar to automatically getting BOM-sub-items for materials which have BOMs maintained. The client is not willing to maintain BOMs for materials in question. They instead have asked us to maintain sub-item materials in a Z-table and then fetch those to populate the subsequent line-items on the sales order.
So far, we have tried to fiddle around with the XVBAK and XVBAP internal tables in sales exit (MV45AFZZ) and also tried to use BAPI within the same exit. Both methods do not work.
Could you please guide us ? Thank you.
Regards,

Ist method:
Maintain one Ztable with the fields of Material and sub materials.
write BDC to create order,before entering the material number check if material is existed in Ztable or not.
If it exist take that material and added as a another line item.
if not exist create like normal line item.
2 nd method:
Ask your MM functional consultant to maintain supression of materials concept.

How to add line item to sales order item table?

Kindly help me the with the below requirement .
Add line item to sales order(va01) dynamically on click of button. The button is also custom created push button.
In the above requirement I have added the pushbutton to va01 tcode. But when I click on that button I need to add line item to sales order item table.
I tried a lot but I am not successful. If possible can u please help on this.
Regards,
Rachel

Hi!
It's quite easy even in the standard SAP to add a line item for a customer order, I don't think it worth to develop a new button for this.
However if you wanted to add a line automatically, the you can do the following in the program MV45AFZZ, FORM USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT.
You can use similar code, but with some modifications.
DATA: lv_posnr.
LOOP AT xvbap.
MOVE xvbap-posnr TO lv_posnr.   "get the last posnr
ENDLOOP.
ADD 10 TO lv_posnr.
MOVE 'XYZ' TO xvbap-matnr.   "enter your material number here
MOVE lv_posnr TO xvbap-posnr.
* fill additinal field data in XVBAP if necessary
MOVE 'I' TO xvbap-updkz.                  "Insert line
APPEND xvbap.

To add the line item in Sales Order

Hi Experts,
I have to insert the line item between two line item in sales order dynamically.
How should i do this.
any idea??
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
I guess you are talking about BOM, sub-items or free goods, wherein after you put in one item the other material defined gets added automatically in the sales order.
That is done with the help of Item Category config by functional person.
Check here for more info
[Item Category|Re: Item Category;
You can also use user exit MV45AFZZ form user_exit_move_to_vbap for a specific logic defined at runtime.

Hi,
Can you also check the SALES LINE.
Sales line is the combination of SALES ORGANISATION + DISTRIBTION CHANNEL +PLANT.
Hope it was not maintained.
Transaction code : OVX6
PATH: IMG->ENTERPRISE STRCTRE->ASSIGNMENT>SALES AND DISTRIBTION->ASSIGN SALES ORG- DISTRIBTION-PLANT.
please revert if the error still exists.

Maximum number of line items in PO/SA....

Hi,
1.
What is the limitation on maximum number of line items in a PO/schedulling agreement/Contract.
2.
Also what is the maximum permissible number of lines in a single accounting document possible.As far as I know there is a limitation of counter 999 meaning if an aaccounting document is generated after GR then it will only allow max 999 lines.
Is there any other way to avoid this.Because in my case I have for several line items in PO and several pricing conditions with separate GL account.Now when I do GR and if a PO has many line items with about 4 to 5 conditions then for each line item there would be minimum 6-7 entries.
How can this best be handled in SAP.
I was being adviced to split the GR but is there any better way or is there any option like summerised acounting document ?
Please suggest as this is most critical for me.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
manOO

Hi,
There is no limitation in PO. But if you want, you can use following user exit;
<b>EXIT_SAPMM06E_012</b>
With regard to Maximum Number of items: There is a limit of (999) line items which can be posted per FI document. This is because the line item number (BSEG-BUZEI) field length is defined as (3) numeric positions, i.e., (999) line items.
The most commonly used workarounds are as follows:
(1) Implement FI summarization (per note 36353).
(2) Cancel the original billing document and split it into smaller documents using different payment terms but actually with the same terms, in case of invoice verification.
This will avoid the (999) line item limit for FI postings. Please also have a look at the note 117708 and 77161.
