Problem with SAP function module (user details)

[Former Member]

Hi everyone, I'm using function module SUSR_SHOW_USER_DETAILS to correspond the current user's SY-UNAME(associate number in my case) with a table holding their information and expecting to receive back their real first name and last name. I believe I need to be using a commit work but I'm not sure which one to use. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks!!!

Hi Ryan,

Just to fetch details, you don't need a commit work. Try BAPI_USER_GET_DETAILS.

This is working good for me.

report zrich_0001.

call function 'SUSR_SHOW_USER_DETAILS'
     exporting
          bname      = sy-uname
          mandt      = sy-mandt
          no_display = space.

try SUSR_USER_ADDRESS_READ instead.

Hi again,

When using SUSR_SHOW_USER_DETAILS, I need to return the first & last names by supplying the sy-uname, and then I plan to post their names into a smartforms form I have created. After it processes through the function module, a subscreen pops up showing the associate ID and name information but then it causes a runtime error. I do not need this subscreen to show, just bring the information back into working storage and I can continue processing from there, any ideas?

Try using the BAPI I have mentioned.

You need put 'X' in parameter no_display:

call function 'SUSR_SHOW_USER_DETAILS'

exporting

bname = sy-uname

mandt = sy-mandt

no_display = 'X'.

If you don't want the dialog, you can get the information back via the USR03 parameter of the function module, make sure to swith the NO_DISPLAY parameter to "X".

report zrich_0001.


data: xusr03 type usr03 .

call function 'SUSR_SHOW_USER_DETAILS'
     exporting
          bname      = sy-uname
          mandt      = sy-mandt
          no_display = 'X'
     changing
          user_usr03 = xusr03.

write:/ xusr03-name1.
write:/ xusr03-name2.
