Restriction on number of line items in an automatically generated document

Hi all,
As per my info, an accounting document must have a minimum of 2 line items to complete the document. At the same time an accounting document can have a maximum of 999 line items.
My observation:-
When I am posting depreciation using t-code AFAB, system is posting depreciation document (document type AF). While checking, I found that the system has posted around 16 document for a period.
On further checking, I observed that the each document contains a max 100 line items.
I am using SAP 4.7
My Query:-
a> Is there any way / place wherein we can restrict the maximum number of line items possible for a given docuemnt type or for all document types in the client?
b> In case it is not possible to restrict the number of line items per document, what could be possible reason for the system behaviour wherein it is posting about 100 line items per document & thereafter starts a new document.
Thanking you in advance

Hi,
I have been reading CIN. There I came across with a statement i.e. "There is restriction on no of line items to be in an Excise Invoice".
where you read this i dont know

  • How to resrict number of line items in IDOC  Payment file

    Hai
    I had an issue where user wants to restrict the number of line items in the payment IDOC file. Is there any possibilty to restict these number of line items to 6.

    Kindly help me
    Thanks in advance

    Akash Narayana

    Hi Akash,
    Execute transaction code <b>WE20</b> and open up the "<b>Partner Type B</b> - i.e. <b>Bank</b>". Select the bank in question. To the right of the screen, you would see 3 different sections. You are interested in the middle section "<b>Outbound parmtrs</b>.". Highlight the "<b>Message type</b>" (e.g. COSMAS - Master cost center) you want to reduce the size and click on the "<b>Display</b>" icon just underneath it. In the "<b>Outbound Options</b>" tab, change the "<b>PacketSize</b>" to 6 and save your entries.
    Repeat this for all other outbound parameter "<b>Message Types</b>" for this bank. e.g. "<b>EUPEXR</b> - Reference message for electr. signature (for ext. payments)" and "<b>PAYEXT</b> - Extended payment order" etc. That is, change the "<b>PacketSize</b>" for each to <b>6</b> and save your entires. This would reduce the number of each set of messages sent to the bank to 6.
    I hope the above helps.
    Do not forget to award the points please.

  • Restrict number of line items in Excise Invoice

    Hi,
    The requirement is to restrict the creation of Excise Invoice through J1IIN whenever the number of line items exceed 12.
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    Sinduja

    Dear Sinduja
    Go to IMG Path -- Logistics-General --> Tax on Goods Movements --> India --> Basic Settings --> Maintain Excise Registrations.
    There select your Excise Registration (create a new one if not already created) and go to right side where you can see a tab "EI Items".   Maintain 12 there.

  • 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.

  • Increasing the number of line items in PO

    hello fellow abapers,
    i have a query. i dont know if its the headache of the function ppl or the technicial person - which happens to be me - but i have to get this solved at the earliest.
    now ive made a PO for materials from the scratch and everythin is workin fine. except that out of the blue comes a PO with over 10000 line items. yes, thats right - 10,000 line items.
    so obviously an error was thrown by SAP. unfortunately the end-user did not think it necessary to take a printout or record the error message.
    anyways the error said something to the effect that it did not allow so many line items or somthing like that.
    now can anybody pls help me out with this. firstly is dhere any restrictions on the number of line items, and secondly, if thats the case how do i find a work-around.
    thanx a bunch

    create a formula with constant 1
    and set the exception aggregation as Total, and set the reference char as Line Item.
    Make sure you have Invocie in the report.

  • Regarding Number of Line Items for Remittance Advice (REMADV)

    Hi all,
    We have an issue where the user tries to upload remittances line items. (More than 10,000 line items).
    We had come across a statement as "Only 100 remittances are allowed per day in SAP and 1 remittance can have only 10,000 line items each".
    However, we would like to confirm the same.
    Please let us know if SAP permits maximum of 10,000 line items only. Also let us know if there is any standard SAP functionality/Function module that confirms the same.

  • 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.
