Only 10000 records being returned by function module?

[Former Member]

Is there a hard limit of 10000 records that can be returned in a function module export parameter? I tried looking everywhere I could think of and couldn't find any solid documentation.

We're having a problem with a function module used by our BW. It takes a range table of funds, and breaks it out into a table that lists each fund on its own line, and returns that in the export parameter. In the function, there are 11,000+ funds in the range table, but the export parameter is always returning exactly 10,000 records.

If this is a limit, does anyone know if it can be expanded. Thanks for any help.

Not that I know of.

Have you debugged the FM to see how many funds it is picking up?

It's picking up 11372, but only returning the first 10000.

There's an internal table that is looping filling up the export parameter, it continues through the loop for all 11000+ records, but after the 10000th loop, the export table just stops growing.

Is this a standard R3 FM? If so, what is its name?

No, it's custom, but it's pretty straight forward.

      into it_fund-zfund
      where
        fund >= xreceivers-low
        and fund <= xreceivers-high.

        append it_fund.

      endselect.

    endif.

  endloop.


* Loop at it_fund to build list of individual funds (from range)

  loop at it_fund.

    ls_charsel-chanm = '0FUND'.
    ls_charsel-seqno = sy-tabix.
    ls_charsel-sign = 'I'.
    ls_charsel-opt = 'EQ'.
    ls_charsel-low = it_fund-zfund.
*  ls_charsel-high = xreceivers-high.

    insert ls_charsel into table eto_charsel.

    clear ls_charsel.

  endloop.

ENDFUNCTION.

The relevant part is that last loop. There are 11k+ records in the internal table. And it does the loop that many times. But the table eto_charsel never gets bigger than 10k records.

eto_charsel has a unique key. Are you sure there are no duplicates in it_fund or xreceivers?

Of course - seqno has a type of NUMC(4)..

And, that explains that, thank you!

... or as one of my previous project managers used to put it, you are "the man"

Maybe some package size that can be adjusted somewhere deep down in BW customizing? Also have a look in the BW (or is it BI?) forums, but do not cross-post, please.
