SAP security note 1720999, “Update 1 to Security Note 1531958”, is a program error note released on September 11, 2012. Below are the symptom and SAP recommended solution.

Description

Symptom

Implementing Security Note 1531958 in CRM 5.0 results in the SwingUI PME failing with the following error message: Open database error: INTERNAL_ERROR.

This issue occurs because the Swing UI PME loses access to the function module EXTRACT_DATA, preventing it from accessing necessary database functions.

Solution

To resolve this issue and restore access to the EXTRACT_DATA function module in Swing UI PME within CRM 5.0, follow these steps:

• Create a Customer-Specific Implementation: Implement the interface IF_EX_EXTRACT_DATA.
• Implement the CHECK_TABLE_ACCESS Method: Customize the method to fit your authorization requirements.
• Enhancement and BAdI Implementation: Provide an implementation to the Enhancement Spot EXTRACT_DATA. Use the BAdI Definition EXTRACT_DATA and assign your custom class as the implementation.
• Enable Table Access: Grant access to tables starting with COMM_CFG, /1SAP1/SE, and T00. If additional tables are required, include them in your BAdI implementation.
