Operational Data Upload - LSMW vs BDC - which one preferred

Question: Hello Friends

My client can't invest in EDI and instead decided to do upload of Purchase data like Req, PO from another company into SAP. Earlier, We used LSMW to load master data from legacy during implementation. This is background to my question.

Now my question, is LSMW good for OPERATIONAL data upload like Req and PO into SAP or BDC is good?

Any advise is highly appreciated.

Answer:
bdc IS PREFERRABLE. aS lsmw IS MAINLY USED FOR MASTER DATA MIGRATION.

Answer:
Hi,

LSMW is good for data conversions.

If you don't have a way to format the incoming data to IDOC format, your best option would be to code an ABAP program with BAPI calls. This is much better than a BDC.
