Answer / kolla ravi

There is not a thing like a "Bulk insert" or "many records
in one go". No matter what method you adopt the record
action on file is done one at a time.
Now the method you use again depends on Data you have.
If you have data in one or more files CPYF can be used. SQL
may be used when more conditioning and calculation is
needed.Manual entry may be thro UPDDTA or Programs supplied
by 3rd party or tailor made to suit the need.
