When trying to put in a diagnosis in CPOE we get "Problem list too large" in the dropdown.
Any fix for this that you know of???
Only fix is to have your providers clean up the problem list. What is happening is that the dynamic drop down list that is being created of all the active problems is becoming longer than the 2000 character maximum limit.
We have had the same issue. It happens when you try to add more than 50 problems to the list. The only way to move on is to remove old/resolved problems.

We started noticing this when the ICD-10 codes were introduced. They are included in when you call PROB_AFTER now which adds a ton of characters and puts you past the 2000 character limit.
It has only happened to us a few times, but it really can happen on patients with appropriately managed problem lists.
You can rewrite the function ccc_prob_after_comma_delim_CPOE in the file CCC-fndef-CPOE.ccc and trim out the ICD 10 information when it gets the array values if it is happening to you a lot. We haven't done that yet to avoid being told that they can't support our site because of the changes, but if we start seeing more and more patients with this problem that is the plan (or just creating a new, cleaner CPOE from scratch).
We had the issue prior to ICD 10- while on CPS 10. Currently on CPS 11.

Another method around this issue is to export the CPOE form as a clinical kit. Then with a good text editor search the .XLW file for the phrase "Problem List Too Large".
You should find a line that reads as follows:
if size(e) > 1999 then return "Problem List Too Large" else
Change the number to something larger (I've set ours to 3999). Save the change and import the kit back into the system.
I made this change about two weeks after we upgraded to version 11 back in March and we haven't had any issues since.
