Hi
You can use which ever method you feel comfortable to transfer the data
BDC or BAPI or LSMW or someother
Initially we used to use BDC's for transfering data
afterwards LSMW came to transfer data allowing the Fun consultants also to transfer data without much coding
After the ENJOY transactions came you can't use BDC's for them So BAPI's have become popular to transfer data to these enjoy Transactions (likp ME21N, VL01N)
ALE is used to exchange data between the Applications servers of an orgn, so it is mainly used between the different depts of a single orgn
IDOC is the just Intermediate data document which is used in ALE/EDI .
