Mass data Upload

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I have to change the contents of some fields(may be 2 fields) in material master record for around minimum some 7000 materials. For which always we can go for BDC or mass maintenance.

My question is, when the records are too much, then whether the standard mass maintenance tool is recommended for so many materials. Pls suggest which is the better option (BDC or Mass maintenance ) AND why???

Hi Mahesh,

in case of BDC you need the assistance of ABAP resource to develop the program. if the effort involved for preparing the BDC for these 2 fields is less then go for it.

not all the fields in mass maintenance are modifiable, first check which field you want to modify. then also it depends if the data is in sequence, then you can give the range then you task will be easy.

I suggest you to go for BDC as your activity will take less time.

BDC is a preferable one because u can 1)upload data quickly as compared to mass maintenance2) give a request for loading data and u dont have to sit on the system, the system will upload the data in background and shows list of any material which are not uploaded because of any requiremetns not fulfilled.
