Hi,
BAPI I have found to upload material master is BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA. But, using this BAPI I can upload materials one-by-one only by looping thru the internal table. Is there anyway that I can upload all materials directly in one go? Because the number of materials that needs to be created is huge.
Pls let me know if there are any methods.
Thanks in advance....
Regards,
Sriram.

Hi,
You can use standard Direct input program to upload material master data. The program name is RMDATIND. This program can be used directly in LSMW. It covers almost whole material master.
This approach is most suitable one to upload material master.
Hope this solves your query.

any import method (BAPI, direct input, IDOC) is looping thru internal table and creating the new material masters individually.
I have never tested which method is the quickest, as this iis effected by so much paramters. If you have a small SAP machine and use the quickest method, then the import may last longer than with a big SAP machine a using a slower method.
I usually use LSMW with IDOC method and can load about 50000 materials, each for about 2 to 4 plants in about 4 hours.
