BDC vs Update query

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a custom infotype which is being updated by Transaction pa30.

I need to write a program ( to update table for custom infotype ) which will be just executed once. This will update a flag for already existing employees.

Normally we do BDC for this updation. Can't I write a update query to the PA table.

I want to know comparision of doing BDC (via SHDB recording ) to PA30 and update query to the table.

Please suggest.

Regards,

Anita
