Answer / raj
In Bapi, You create business objects and those are then registered
in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the
SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA
In this case you only specify the business object and its method from
external system, in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct
system call
