Hi,
I am using ACSIL for trading. I have Position Quantity set to 1 and Maximum Allowed Position set to 1. But there are more than one open positions while backtesting. I went through the solution provided in Wrong Trade Position Quantity But the problem still prevails. Also, the trades where this happens does not have BP and EP in Entry and Exit Price in Trades Activity.

What do you mean by this:
. I have Position Quantity set to 1
What particular variable are you referring to?

It is hard for us to say why this scenario can occur. It is possible there can be certain order configurations which could workaround the Maximum Allowed Position for automated trading.

This would require in-depth debugging. You can also use the Symbol Settings for a Position Limit which uses a different method to control the limit, which is more comprehensive:
Global Symbol Settings

Refer to the Trade Position Limit symbol setting.

There is a global position limit, but we are referring to the Trade Position Limit for the symbol itself.
