Dear Sravan,

Precautions:

Analyse the file that you would upload. Check if you are getting all the mandatory data in the file. If not, pass constant values or use some logic to populate all mandatory fields.

Prepare Field and Structure mapping as per the file layout. Identify proper method for your scenario.

Methods in LSMW:

1. Direct Input

2. Batch Input

3. BAPI

4. IDOC

You can use Transaction RFBIBL00 (Batch Input Documents) from SE38 as well for FI.
