The number of records in the table exceeds the maximum number of 5000

Solution:
Open using your preferred ClientUserSettings.config

  • NAV 2013 R2
    Default location is
    [sourcecode lang=”text”]C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\71[/sourcecode]
  • NAV 2013
    Default location is
    [sourcecode lang=”text”]C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\70[/sourcecode]
  • NAV 2009
    On Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows Server 2008, the default location is
    [sourcecode lang=”text”]C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Microsoft Dynamics NAV[/sourcecode]
    On Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP, the default location of this file is
    [sourcecode lang=”text”]C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Microsoft Dynamics NAV[/sourcecode]

Where[sourcecode lang=”text”]<username>[/sourcecode] is the name of the user.

Change MaxNoOfXMLRecordsToSend property value from 5000 to 2147483647

[sourcecode lang=”xml”]<add key="MaxNoOfXMLRecordsToSend" value="2147483647" />[/sourcecode]

If you’ll insert a number bigger that 2147483647 you’ll receive the following error message:

Microsoft Dynamics NAV
—————————
The MaxNoOfXMLRecordsToSend configuration setting must have a value between -2,147,483,648 and 2,147,483,647.
