AuthenticationData authData = new AuthenticationData();
authData.AppCode = loginInfo.AppCode;
authData.UserId = loginInfo.UserId;
authData.PassCode = password;
authData.DeptId = loginInfo.DeptId;
authData.ProjId = loginInfo.ProjId;
string entityName = "FunctSpecs-AllowApprove";
bool result = service.Preferences_IsEntityRestricted(authData, entityName);
Console.WriteLine(result.ToString());
Java
String login = "[email protected]";
String password = "p@ssword";
ServiceSoap service = new Service().getServiceSoap12();

LoginInfo loginInfo = service.getLoginInfo("", login, password);
AuthenticationData authData = new AuthenticationData();
authData.setAppCode(loginInfo.getAppCode());
authData.setUserId(loginInfo.getUserId());
authData.setPassCode(password);
authData.setDeptId(loginInfo.getDeptId());
authData.setProjId(loginInfo.getProjId());
String entityName = "FunctSpecs-AllowApprove";
Boolean result = service.preferencesIsEntityRestricted(authData, entityName);
System.out.println(result);
