The SAP error message
/BA1/F4_FX035 Result of conversion & & is too large
typically occurs when there is an attempt to convert a value that exceeds the maximum limit for the target data type. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when dealing with currency conversions, numerical calculations, or data type conversions in ABAP programs.Cause:
- Data Type Limitations: The value being converted is larger than what the target data type can handle. For example, if you are trying to convert a large decimal number into an integer or a smaller decimal type.
- Currency Conversion: If the error occurs during currency conversion, it may be due to the amount being converted exceeding the limits set for the currency type.
- Incorrect Data Handling: The data being processed may not be validated properly, leading to unexpected large values being passed for conversion.
Solution:
- Check Data Types: Review the data types involved in the conversion. Ensure that the target data type can accommodate the value being converted. If necessary, change the data type to a larger one (e.g., from
INT
toBIGINT
or fromDECIMAL(10,2)
toDECIMAL(20,4)
).- Validate Input Values: Implement checks to validate the input values before performing conversions. This can help catch any values that are too large before they cause an error.
- Adjust Currency Settings: If the error is related to currency conversion, check the currency settings and ensure that the amounts being processed are within acceptable limits.
- Debugging: Use debugging tools in SAP to trace the execution of the program and identify where the conversion is failing. This can provide insights into the values being processed and help pinpoint the issue.
- Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific function or module you are working with to see if there are known issues or limitations.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
