What is the difference between LSMW and BDC?

Answer Posted / anwar

BDC is Batch Data Communication. It is basically a program
either generated by SAP after a recording or programmed by a
abaper.Its like running the transaction manually but all the
data is populated on the screens automatically.It is a
little complex when the screens contain table controls.
LSMW is legacy system migration workbench is a more user-
friendly tool thru which one can do the same as a BDC. One
just has to follow some 14 steps, click buttons and the data
is set to be uploaded ….LSMW offer you 4 ways to import data
into SAP, they are BDC, Direct Input, BAPI(BO), IDOC.
