What is the difference between LSMW and BDC?

Answer Posted / honey deep

In BDC (Batch Data Communication) to upload the flat file
into one SAP system from another SAP system or non SAP
system , we can apply the validations by coding . Hence we
can modify it according to our needs.

BDC is developer made method while LSMW is provided by SAP
directly and hence u dont need to code anything, just need
to follow those 14 steps in order to upload the flat file.
Hence u cannot make the validations in LSMW.

In BDC , u can even schedule the job , so upload can be done
in once or later periodically while in LSMW it has to be
done in once only. So, through LSMW, one cannot upload huge
amount of data.
