USER_GET_DETAIL Error

[Former Member]

Hi!

As you can see, I am new in here. I hope I am posting in the correct Forum.

I am desperatly trying to connect a SAP System to a User Management Server. Dealing with this I get an Output from the third Party Tool like the following:

___

BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL RfcCall called (return code: 0)

BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL RfcReceive called (return code: 0)

Call_bapi_user_get_detail RETURN: (row 1)

1 of 1 lines

NUMBER : 538

TYPE : I

ID : 01

NUMBER : 538

MESSAGE : External ID maintenance is no longer available

LOG_NO :

LOG_MSG_NO : 000000

PARAMETER :

ROW : 0

FIELD :

SYSTEM :

=> Disconnect

Closing connection

create and delet user works fine.

Does anyone know this Error and can give me a Hint what/how to do / configure / kick the machine?

THX,

Check whether you are supplying any values in TABLES EXTIDHEAD while calling FM. This is not required.

Hi Christian!

Welcome in SDN!

I checked the place were the message is raised and it's a bit funny: in source and the german version of this message tell, this function will be available later.

Anyway, to avoid this message you should not request extidhead (= do not specify this parameter?).

Hi Christian,

I have already seen this translation Error.

- External ID Maintenance is no longer available

- Die Pflege der externen ID ist noch nicht verfügbar

Can you perhaps explain the extidhead approach a little more detailed? I do not have the Source code of the connection tool and so can´t see the real call. But fact is, that it works with other SAP Systems. Is there some Configuration Option in wich i have to give miy user the right to call this bapi?

Thx for your effort,

Christian

Hi Christian,

of course we stay in English - or would you like to read answers in dozens of different languages?

Here is the coding of the place, where the message is raised:

*-----------------------------------------------------------------------
* Feature not yet available
*
  if extidhead is requested.
*...Die systemspezifische Nutzerklassifikation ist noch nicht verfügbar
    if 1 = 0. message i538(01). endif.
    call function 'BALW_BAPIRETURN_GET2'
      exporting
        type   = 'I'
        cl     = '01'
        number = '538'
      importing
        return = return.
    append return.
  endif.

The 'is requested' is true, if the formal parameter of the function module has an assignment of an actual parameter in this call -> you have different SAP-versions (with different coding) or your other calls don't assign a table parameter to extidhead.

There is no authority or other hidden functionality involved. It's a pretty much hard-coded raising and a simple condition.
