Exceptions for BAPI_USER_GETLIST

Former Member — Wed, 22 May 2013 09:28:31 GMT

Hi All,

I have called a Bapi inside a program. In this Bapi there are no Exceptions maintained.

Thus when I check my program through Code Inspector it throws an error stating EXCEPTION specification that sets the SY-SUBRC Thus the value of SY-SUBRC is always 0.

Call to FM is as follows,

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_USER_GETLIST'
       EXPORTING
*       MAX_ROWS        = 0
         with_username   = lv_user
*      IMPORTING
*        rows            =
       TABLES
*       SELECTION_RANGE =
*       SELECTION_EXP   =
         userlist        = lt_user
*       RETURN

Please tell me how to tackle this error as i cannot add exception in the Standard Bapi.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_USER_GETLIST'

EXPORTING

* MAX_ROWS = 0

with_username = lv_user

* IMPORTING

* rows =

TABLES

* SELECTION_RANGE =

* SELECTION_EXP =

userlist = lt_user

* RETURN

EXCEPTIONS

others = 0.

hi,

if it is standard bapi then u can ignore such error by adding

"#EC at end of error point and proceed the code inspector will hide such errors.

Hi,

I do agree with above post.

Add exceptions as others = 0 / 1/ 2, as explained above.

if you are using,

Exceptions

Others = 1.

that means your sy-subrc will be 1 when you are catched with exception.

BAPI should not raise this error in SCI, first use parameter RETURN where the BAPI will return the error and success message. Does SCI stil raise an error ?

Raymond

Which version of ABAP are you working on?

BAPIs don't have exceptions and you do not need to handle them as well. No sure why CI is throwing this error? Can you share the screenshot of your Code Inspector?

BR,

Hi ,

If you are referring to the Extended Code Checks then you can suppress this message

by using pragma ##FM_SUBRC_OK (or pseudo comment "#EC FB_RC).

There is no harm in implementing this and this message can be ignored . This is just an information that even if you verify sy-subrc it will always be 0.

Thanks and Regards,

Code inspector depends on how its rules are configured. It sometimes gets it wrong. Unfortunately, some quality teams fail to understand this.

Hi,

Are you checking sy-subrc after the FM call may be thats why the message comes in extended check. indicating that its a redundant sy-subrc check as it has no exceptions.

Cheers,

You might be checking sy-subrc after function module call.

since BAPI's don't have exceptions you no need to check sy-subrc value, instead of that check

RETURN parameter of bapi and give messages accordingly.

call function 'BAPI_USER_GETLIST'

if lt_return[] is not initial.

loop lt_return ....

.......

endloop.

endif.

I would hope that SCI throwed an error for not using returned RETURN parameter... too sad
