Add-ERPMedia fails with "Payload Too Large" on SAP system

Description

When the cmdlet Add-ERPMedia is called to transfer binary data to a SAP system it fails with the error message "Payload Too Large" and status code 413

Cause

In SAP there is a parameter called "cm/http/max_request_size_KB", which is set to 100 Mb per default. If a request exceeds this value SAP will return the error code 413.

Solution

Contact your SAP admin and ask them to increase this value so it can handle the largest files you want to transfer.
