Tax - Maximum Message Size Quota Has Been Exceeded

Tax - Maximum Message Size Quota Has Been Exceeded

You may receive the following message after running the Tax macro on an order with a lot of lines: "'The maximum message size quota for incoming messages (65536) has been exceeded. To increase the quota, use the MaxReceivedMessageSize property on the appropriate binding element.' At Line 0 Position 0"



To fix this, the <bindings> section of the web.config files needs the following bolded modifications, alongside whatever might already be there:
Notes
<bindings>
    <basicHttpBinding>
        <binding name="basicHttp" allowCookies="true"
                 maxReceivedMessageSize="20000000" 
                 maxBufferSize="20000000"
                 maxBufferPoolSize="20000000">
            <readerQuotas maxDepth="32" 
                     maxArrayLength="200000000"
                     maxStringContentLength="200000000"/>
        </binding>
    </basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>

Also verify that the binding name is in the endpoint configuration.
Notes
<client>
    <endpoint ... bindingConfiguration="basicHttp" />
</client>

Notes:
  1. "basicHttp" in this example is the name of the already-existing binding in the web.config. There should already be an existing binding in there--use that name.
  2. 200 million was chosen arbitrarily as a number greater than 65536. The drawbacks of having a larger limit is that there is more vulnerability to a DDOS attack, so that number can be adjusted as needed.
