Diagnosis
A menu can contain references to other area menus, which - in turn - can reference yet again other area menus. If one of the referenced menus contains a reference to the original menu, you will have recursion.
Through this endless referencing, the menu can be expanded endlessly. The current area menu &V2& contains at least one recursion. This recursion begins with the reference entry on area menu &V1&.
System Response
Recursions cannot be supported correctly and cause various errors.
- Opening a folder in an area menu can take a very long time.
- The function 'Search' in an area menu does not function correctly and can even cause memory overflow.
- In the attempt to expand an area menu with the function 'Expand All", not all the menu items are opened.
Procedure
The entries or paths that create endless structures can be deleted manually.
To determine all the entries that create endless references, you can use the check function in change mode of the area menu editor (Transaction SE43). Beforehand, the entire structure of the menu must be expanded so that all the entries are visible and can be selected.
For more information, refer to note 1277962.
