Documentation

Definition

If the segments for a certain level are only to be output up to a maximum number, you can specify this maximum here. If this limit is reached when a file is generated, the segments of the lower level are output again before the remaining segments of the current level are output.

Example

A format is defined so that a maximum of 200 payment documents can correspond to one vendor record (on level 1). If there are more than 200 payment documents for one vendor, then the vendor record must be written again.

In this case, a repetition limit of 200 is assigned to level 2 (payment document segment). This means that in the file, a vendor record is regenerated after the first 200 payment document segments are processed. The remaining payment document segments are then written under the second vendor record.
