Hi all,

In BAPI, while we writing a program we upload the data from flat file to sap system (internal table). my doubt is will BAPIs covert the legacy data into sap format or shall we convert the legacy data into sap format and to give them to bapis?

Hi,

The bapis special feature is tht we need not convert the data its function module takes care of the flat file and converson, we need not do anything unlike calling it and using bapi_commit ince all bapis cant be automatically commited..
