Checkout -> modify record fails

[former_member206107]

Hi all,

I am facing a strange problem with Java API SP06.

I am checking out the main table records and I am setting field values for a record. When i execute modifyrecords command for the checkedout maintable record, I am getting a server exception...

"The records is protected"

The user session is same for all the operation.

I cannot figure out the problem.

Cant we do modification on checked out records?

Best regards,

Hi Walter,

Thanks for the reply.

I was using modifyrecordCommand. i was getting "record is protected" exception.

Now i have changed my approach.

I am using modifyrecordscommand. Here i am supplying the records which i have modified. But the modification does not affects the checked out records.

BTW...Where do i supply the record ids? From my knowledge modifyrecordsbyID is not supported in SP06.

Kindly clarify.

Thanks and best regards,

Hi,

After executing the CheckoutRecordsCommand you can call the method getCheckoutRecordIds(). Then retrieve records by ID (the checked-out ID) and modify these records.

Hi,

Ensure that the RecordId's you supply to the command are the checked-out record ID's and not the "original" record ID's.

Hi Sharma,

The records are not protected.

My scenario : I am trying to modify the checked out records. I am not protecting the records any where.

This is strange. i donno why i am getting an irrelavent exception!

If using Admin role, Go to DM and right click on record and unprotect it.

if using own userid, try first unprotect record and also it may be the case you dont have authorization to unprotect it. Check with your Admin.
