Action Return Codes

The CTMAPI Action return code is returned in register R15. There are basically two types of failure:

The CTMAPI program itself encountered a problem which prevented it from calling the service. In this case
- register R15 has a value higher than 8
- the reason code is returned in the BAPIRSN field
The service was activated but failed to perform the desired action. In this case
- register R15 has a value of 8
- the return code from the service is returned in the BAPIURC field

Table 295 shows in more detail the return codes that can be returned to the caller (in register R15).
