Dump in data transfer to application server

Question

Hi all,
We are using the FM AUTHORITY_CHECK_DATASET before the command OPEN Dataset to transfer a file to the application server.
The sy-subrc for the FM comes out to be 0, but the sy-subrc  for the open dataset command = 8 (on Checking in the debug mode).
The code snippet is as follows
  v_path1 = v_bkpf.
  CALL FUNCTION 'AUTHORITY_CHECK_DATASET'
       EXPORTING
            program          = 'ZZRFFI058_GL_ACCOUNT_MAPPING'
            activity         = 'WRITE'
            filename         = v_path1
       EXCEPTIONS
            no_authority     = 1
            activity_unknown = 2
            OTHERS           = 3.
  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE e195(zzfn) WITH
          'No authorisation to write file on application server'
           v_path1.
   WRITE:/ 'File:', v_path1, ' not created'.
    STOP.
  ENDIF.
  OPEN DATASET v_bkpf FOR OUTPUT.                           "DEL ACC012
  TRANSFER i_bkpf_w TO v_bkpf LENGTH v_len.
So we have a dump at the TRANSFER command.
Not sure how the FM is successful and OPEN DATASET fails   
Pls post your ideas.
Thanks ,

hi please make sure that the strcuture which ur passing into the application server is entirely in character format
for example:
<b>
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
field1 like mara-matnr,
field2 like mara-menge,
end of itab.
loop at itab.
transfer itab to app_file.
endloop.
</b>
This will for a dump as the structure isnt in character format. all the fields should be of types C, N, D, T, STRING
<b>
in this case declare another itab with character fields of same field length
begin of itab1.
field1(18),
field2(17),
end of itab1.
loop at itab.
itab1-field1 = itab-field1.
itab1-field2 = itab-field2.
transfer itab1 to app_file
endloop.
