We are experiencing this error when sending EDIFACT Sales Reports to Link.

I have talked to David Sand about it and it is the EDIFACT Disassembler that has a hardcoded limitation in the number of loops one SEGMENT is allowed to have.
In the example that failed here, there were more than 12000 LOC segments and LEGO expects that the number of LOOPED segments can be much highter than that.
I think we should make this limitation configurable in Link-->Settings-->Settings (there are already other EDIFACT settings available there) or we should use the limitation from the EDIFACT Schema (I am aware that the limitations from the EDIFACT Schemas are often much higher than what is normal in real world scenarios and a need for another limitation could make sense).
Note: I think it is important, that while fixing this issue, that you also check if we have similar limitations in the X12 Disassembler, and apply the same solution there.
Hi Søren.
Can you please provide schema and example file?
