'EMAILID'  type changing check button option checked but still it is not geting activate same error is coming

It seems the error you are getting is regarding the use of PREFERRED parameters. Have you defined any PREFERRED import parameters for your method. If yes, then try making all your import parameters as optional.

This is for the method get_user_emailid

This for get_user_addresdata

what is preferred parameters?

why pass value check box?

why optional check box?

what is the error where it got structued?

Looks like you unintentionally ended up using PREFERRED parameters. If that's the case, you can go to the menu option Goto > Interface Section. There, you can see if the PREFERRED keyword has accidentally been used for any import parameter.

no, PREFERRED keyword i haven't used, coding not yet started in methods.

i am just defineing the parameters for the methods. in type delcartion for for parameters and at check boxex i got struced. i need to make changing as parameter type in second method for second parameter. if i make return as parameter it is geting activate?

[kakshat]

You may not have done coding in your methods but the PREFERRED keyword is used in the signature definitions. If you navigate to the menu option I mentioned, you would understand what I am saying.

If you created your interface by copying a standard one, it's probable that the PREFERRED addition got copied as well. In any case, it's worthwhile to have a look at the 'Interface Section' (by navigating to the menu option) because clearly the error you have reported is linked to PREFERRED parameters.

You can read the link below to know why you can't have EXPORTING or RETURNING parameters in a multiple-use BAdI.
