It is being said that in LSMW Most of the functions should reside in R/3. No collection of individual programs on different platforms. What does this mean. Different platform means..??

Vinodh,

It is being said that ...

A diligent student is neither vague nor anonymous, and provides attibutes for his sources. In this case, you are evidently referring to the underlying principles that drove the creation this module, and which is documented at http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/ioBgAQ

You can do a bit of research on your own by referring to

There are many ways to manage the transfer of data from legacy systems into SAP databases. There can be third party software offerings, each of which could run on any number of platforms. There can be script-based programs executed on at the OS level, there can DBM tools that modify the databases upon which SAP rests, there can be PC based solutions that work through the GUI, etc etc. My poor powers of deduction lead me to believe that the author is saying that SAP wanted the focus of LSMW to be within R/3, and to minimize or eliminate the other possible platforms being used.

The person you should be asking, though, is the author himself, RajKamal Gaddipati.

LSMW Is no longer supported by SAP, as far as I know, there are other tools.

Different platforms means some programs for CRM maybe, that use different technology.

where did you hear such ?

LSMW just became added to standard SAP Netweaver with ECC6, while you had to get it by a free download in earlier releases.
