I got Flat File with 10000 records to upload. Which method(LSMW or call transaction or Session or Direct input) should I choose and why?

Hi Buddula,
Check below tips.
LSMW - Mass upload(Huge amount of data like ur case)
BDC Direct input - Mostly used for master data upload like customer master, Material master(Provided ur flat file is perfect with out any errors).
BDC Session method- Almost same as LSMW. Can have error log after execution.
Call Transaction- Used for few records may be max of around 5000.
In ur case u can go ahead with LSMW or Session methos.
Why: U can process error records seperately by entering the values manuaally.
In call transaction u have to handle the errors explicitely and also it is time taking one if u have huge data.
Direct input: If ur flat file is for master data then u can use this as well.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Try the "Data Dictionary" forum. And good luck for your interviewers.

hi i think it is not the huge data....generally we use the call transaction along with the session method bcoz the call transaction is online data transfer processing and is asynchronous the data will be loaded fastly compared to session and it doesnt requires the user interaction...and if there is any errors occured that will be processed by the session method..
