Hi Manikant,
I prefer going for BDC.When there is a chance of getting different screens for different plants , then you manully need to record the screens for each plant and code accordingly in you BDC program.This type of flexibilty is avalible in BDC.

Kiran B.

Hi
Mani, thats true. For a complaex tcode like MM01, BDC is never recommended. So, always go with BAPI....
Other than Views also, BAPI has the flexibility which BDC does not have...
Once your recording is done in BDC, then you cannot add new vlaues...but in BAPI...you can change it any minute...
Regards,
Vishwa.

hi vishwa,
i have few doubt i.e.
(1) in BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA for material upload how is the extension of same material to different plant takes place and how is it done....
(2) if my flat file consists of more than one record for a material due to different plants(all the fields are same except the plant)....do i have to run the BAPI for every record and if so won't it will create dupliacte entries and thus will throw an error...how to tackle this...

You can see the Documentation in SE37 tcode...
Close the thread if issue is resolved.
