Why "You do not have authorization to display company codes" ? Thanks

[Former Member]

Hello,

Using the Tutorial BAPI which comes with the JCO Tutorial,I just wanna call the first function.

When I run the code, it display "You do not have authorization to display company codes".

Could any body please help me to explain why?

Thanks a lot

BELOW IS THE CODE:

package com.sap.slc.teamweb.test;

import com.sap.mw.jco.*;

public class TestBapi1 extends Object {

JCO.Client mConnection;

JCO.Repository mRepository;

public TestBapi1() {

try {

// Change the logon information to your own system/user

JCO.createClient("001", // SAP client

"<userid>", // userid

"****", // password

null, // language

"<hostname>", // application server host name

"00"); // system number

mConnection.connect();

mRepository = new JCO.Repository("SAPJCO", mConnection);

} catch (Exception ex) {

ex.printStackTrace();

System.exit(1);

}

JCO.Function function = null;

JCO.Table codes = null;

try {

function = this.createFunction("BAPI_COMPANYCODE_GETLIST");

if (function == null) {

System.out.println("BAPI_COMPANYCODE_GETLIST" + " not found in SAP.");

System.exit(1);

}

mConnection.execute(function);

JCO.Structure returnStructure = function.getExportParameterList().getStructure("RETURN");

if (!(returnStructure.getString("TYPE").equals("") || returnStructure.getString("TYPE").equals("S"))) {

System.out.println(returnStructure.getString("MESSAGE"));

System.exit(1);

}

codes = function.getTableParameterList().getTable("COMPANYCODE_LIST");

for (int i = 0; i < codes.getNumRows(); i++) {

codes.setRow(i);

System.out.println(codes.getString("COMP_CODE") + '\t' + codes.getString("COMP_NAME"));

}

}

catch (Exception ex) {

ex.printStackTrace();

System.exit(1);

}

try {

codes.firstRow();

for (int i = 0; i < codes.getNumRows(); i++, codes.nextRow()) {

function = this.createFunction("BAPI_COMPANYCODE_GETDETAIL");

if (function == null) {

System.out.println("BAPI_COMPANYCODE_GETDETAIL" + " not found in SAP.");

System.exit(1);

}

function.getImportParameterList().

setValue(codes.getString("COMP_CODE"), "COMPANYCODEID");

function.getExportParameterList().

setActive(false, "COMPANYCODE_ADDRESS");

mConnection.execute(function);

JCO.Structure returnStructure = function.getExportParameterList().getStructure("RETURN");

if (!(returnStructure.getString("TYPE").equals("") ||

returnStructure.getString("TYPE").equals("S") ||

returnStructure.getString("TYPE").equals("W"))) {

System.out.println(returnStructure.getString("MESSAGE"));

}

JCO.Structure detail =

function.getExportParameterList().

getStructure("COMPANYCODE_DETAIL");

System.out.println(detail.getString("COMP_CODE") + '\t' +

detail.getString("COUNTRY") + '\t' +

detail.getString("CITY"));

}

}

catch (Exception ex) {

ex.printStackTrace();

System.exit(1);

}

mConnection.disconnect();

}

public JCO.Function createFunction(String name) throws Exception {

try {

IFunctionTemplate ft = mRepository.getFunctionTemplate(name.toUpperCase());

if (ft == null)

return null;

return ft.getFunction();

}

catch (Exception ex) {

throw new Exception("Problem retrieving JCO.Function object.");

}

}

public static void main(String args[]) {

TestBapi1 app = new TestBapi1();

}

}

Hi Mao,

The UserId ur paasing to JCo.createClient do not have authorization to display Company Codes. This is a Basis problem, ask ur Basis administrator to give required authorization to that UserId.

Hope it helps you.
