short dump EXPORT_TOO_MUCH_DATA

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are getting the short dump - EXPORT_TOO_MUCH_DATA in Production system, when the custom program trying the change the Object status using the Function Module 'STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN'. And the execution stops at the FM - 'STATUS_BUFFER_EXPORT_TO_MEMORY'. It seems buffer is exceeding the limit.

Any clue on this..

Hi Karthik,

This may be caused by more than one factors. Have you tried scheduling this report in background? What are you trying to achieve here? Please explain in details.

That being said, one of the reason for this exception during program run may be,

The dataset stored under an EXPORT/IMPORT ID is restricted by:

1. The maximum possible size of 2 GB.

2. The length of a data record and the capacity of the sequence counter. This error occurs only if the capacity of the sequence counter does not go beyond 255

The solution for the above issue can be :

1. Kindly refer to SAP-note 713211 for this issue and make the changes to your system.

2. Please try to run this report in background and let me know your results.

3. Refer to the following link as this might solve your query.

Hi Jagraj, Thanks for your response.

My custom program is to create the Journal entry using BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT. But, before creating JE, I am changing the status of the WBS using the FM 'STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN'; also after creating JE, again changing back the status to its original.
