BAPI ==> (Function Module + Remote Enabled) on the
wrapper of Business Object
RFC ==> Function Module + Remote Enabled
RFC & BAPI --> Both can be accessed from other
applications
Only difference is : With BAPI, the Business Object Can
be executed.
Normal Function Module: Can NOT be accessed from any
application.

Answer / someshwar chatterjee
Each Bapi Object has Interface, Key Fields,
Attributes,Methods and Events.
Bapi Function Modules can be attached to these Bapi
objects .Function module has a single bound functionality
while a BAPI object can contain many functionalities.

Answer / jayati saha
Bapi is nothing but a function module which is remote
enabled.
That means it can be accessed from another application
other than SAP.
Like it can be accessed from Visual Basic, JAva etc.
Functional modules are not RFC enabled. They can not be
accessed from other applications.
Moreover , BAPI internally works on business objects in the
Object oriented way.
But Function module is not object oriented.

Answer / anurag
One of the main differances is that:
BAPI doesnot have a changing parameter, instead it has a
import parameter called "RETURN".
whereas Function Module has a changing parameter and no
special import parameter.
