BAPI_USER_CREATE1 problem

Former Member — Sat, 23 Jul 2011 23:51:47 GMT

I am creating a user by executing BAPI_USER_CREATE1 via SE37.

No matter what I do, I can't get the e-mail address to populate in the user when it's created.

The BAPI uses a structure called "BAPIADSMTP" which has these components:

STD_NO
E_MAIL
EMAIL_SRCH
STD_RECIP
R_3_USER
ENCODE
TNEF
HOME_FLAG
CONSNUMBER
ERRORFLAG
FLG_NOUSE
VALID_FROM
VALID_TO

I've populated most if not all of these fields, definitely the e_mail component. The user adds fine. It's just nothing in the e-mail address field when I look at the user via SU01. Some developers have suggested a BAPI_COMMIT_WORK. However I thought exiting the FM in SE 37 did a commit and besides, the user is indeed being created!!!

Hi Wardell,

Do you have the import parameter ADDRESS (TYPE BAPIADDR3) in the BAPI.

Try passing the mail address to the field E_MAIL in import parameter ADDRESS

Hi Wardell,

No need to use bap_transaction_commit. As Ravi told pass the parameter.

Regards,

Madhu.

I figured it out by doing a SQL Trace on SU01 transaction and examining the parameters on the insert on table USR004. Turns out I needed to populate consnumber with '001' instead of '000' in the BAPI. I have to admit, there should be a lot more documentation on how to use this BAPI than there apparently is.
