Checking for a hidden characteristic

[Former Member]

Hello,

I am trying to get information from BAPIs regarding hidden characteristics. When I use the BAPI_CHARACT_GETDETAIL, I get the correct information about a characteristic being hidden (No Display).

I have a situtation where a class overwrites this value and thus hiding the characteristic. Inspite of using BAPI_CLASS_GET_CHARACTERISTICS and BAPI_CLASS_GETDETAIL, the correct information regarding the hidden value of the characteristic is not given. I always see the value as unchecked (i.e, no X for No Display), although I know that this class forces the characteristic to be hidden.

How do I get this information from the BAPI as it doesn't seem to work..Have any others tried this?

Regards,

The problem was in the BAPI. An SAP Note fixed it.
