To increase the transaction limit on the Change Approval Flow in ServiceNow, you're most likely running into a Flow Designer transaction limit, which is set to prevent long-running or resource-heavy flows from consuming too much system capacity.

Here’s how to increase it:

Step-by-Step to Increase Transaction Limit for Flow Designer:
Navigate to System Properties:

Go to System Properties > Flow Designer

Or open directly: /sys_properties_list.do?sysparm_query=nameSTARTSWITHcom.glide.flow.transaction_limit

Locate or Create Property:

Look for the property:
com.glide.flow.transaction_limit

If it doesn't exist, create a new System Property with:

Name: com.glide.flow.transaction_limit

Type: Integer

Value: Increase it (default is typically 1000; try 2000 or 5000 based on your need)

Description: "Controls the max number of transactions per flow execution."

Save and Test:

Save the property and test your Change Approval flow again.

Monitor Performance and Logs to ensure system health is not degraded.


Additional Considerations:
If your flow is doing too many loops or actions, consider refactoring the logic.

Use Subflows and batch processing where possible.

Excessively high limits can degrade performance. Tune incrementally.

Let me know if you'd like help reviewing your flow for optimization.
