Hello,
Have a quick question. Is there a limitation on maximum number of fields that we can create using AET on Web UI.
I know it might be limited to object (BTPartner, BTAdminH, I, CustomerH etc), and there is limitation on total fields in a database table (249 with character limitation) - so we should have a limit for AET also as it goes to standard tables. But I couldn't find any documentation related to it.
We would have more than 400 custom fields, spread across Case and Service Order and we are trying to explore ways to optimize it. It is not common to have so huge number of fields, but nothing we can do. A lot of fields have to be replicated from CRM to SD to appear in Invoice, also to MM for verification with Vendor Invoice, and many of them determine Price. Storing in Z-table is possible, but it adds to complexity (contract determination, standard replication, displaying and editing from Web UI). I have not seen created than 50 z-fields in my projects previously, but it is different here.
Looking for any recommendations related to it. Any expert here faced this situation? What does SAP recommend?
Found this note, but I have no idea what would happen if we choose to create 400-500 fields using AET, or is it recommended or not (if not, what is the alternative)
Note 1392239 - Limit on the number of fields for field extensibility
Thanks,
Rohit
