Problems with BAPI_USER_GETLIST

Former Member — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 14:47:52 GMT

Hi there,

i try to use the BAPI_USER_GETLIST

if i use the following expression i get a correct resultlist with my user, firstname 'Dirk'.

ls_selection_exp-parameter = 'USERNAME'.
      ls_selection_exp-option = 'EQ'.
      ls_selection_exp-low = 'C512....'.

if i use the next expression the list is empty.

ls_selection_exp-parameter = 'ADDRESS'.
      ls_selection_exp-field = 'FIRSTNAME'.
      ls_selection_exp-option = 'EQ'.
      ls_selection_exp-low = 'Dirk'.

thx for help

Dirk

Hello,

I check the field FIRSTNAME of structure BAPIADDR3. The field is case-sensitive.

Can you please run BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL with your user-id ''C512...." & check what is the value in ADDRESS-FIRSTNAME?

Put the same value in BAPI_USER_GETLIST & recheck.

BR,

Suhas

Hi Suhas,

thx u gave me the straight tip, with search parameter 'DIRK' it works.

confusing is that the bapi returns 'Dirk'

thx a lot

I got the catch.

If you check the code for BAPI_USER_GETLIST, you will find that when you use ADDRESS-FIRSTNAME combination, it fetches the data from the DB view USER_ADDRS based on field MC_NAMEFIR. But the underlying domain is not case-sensitive may be this is cause.

I check the dynamic WHERE clause, something like this is generated:

USER_ADDRS~MC_NAMEFIR EQ 'Suhash'
