LSMW uses BDC to upload data into the systems.They need to Call Screens to place data to it.

You can directly upload HR Masterdata using HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATIONS or HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA by writing a program, then why you want to go for LSMW.

For LSMW call BDC on PA30.

Amit

My requirement is to develop the object in LSMW only..and I know we can add code in 5th step Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules...I also know that BDC can be used..

I am just trying to use this function module there and wanted to know if we can use either function modules or BAPIs?? If not, then why..

Hi,

In Lsmw u can write the code in only 1 option called. rule.

try with this one.

If u have a function module directly u can create a programe and use this Fm for creating data.

Assign points if useful.
