BDT Events / BADI

Question

Hi
I am looking for updating newly added Z fields of BUT000 table to databse.
I got confused to two different solutions, as BADI and BUPT Events. Anyone suggest which is the right one. I have used BUPT Control- Screens to enable the Z fields under business partner BP. But got stuck in the next step which we need to update the values from screen to database.
Can anyone throw some inputs on how to use BADI BUPA_GENERAL_UPDATE or BUPA_GENERAL_EXPORT?? or the SAVE Event. Need your valuable inputs.
Its a bit urgent to me..pls.
Cheers

Hi Debasish,
Thanks a lot for your help.
Here is my briefing.
Steps to do update into BUT000 table
1.     Create a new field group, where it should have the new Z fields like BUT000 (Table) ZSUBSEG(Field name)
2.     Create a new view with Subscreen details with program name and screen number, Before Output and After Entry function modules.
     Here are the details which go into respective function modules
     Before Output : Use BUP_BUPA_BUT000_GET fm to get the details from database buffer, then assign these data in your screen fields.
     After Entry   : Use BUP_BUPA_BUT000_GET fm to get the details of BUT000 from memory, then assign BUT000-Z1 to the imported structure of BUT000, then pass this strucute to BUP_BUPA_BUT000_COLLECT fm with i_subname as include name or append sturucture name.
     Important point to remember is the FM of PBO, PAI and screen number should be in same function group.
     Assign the above created (step1) field group to this view.
3.     Create a new section and assign your view create above in step 2.
4.     Assign the Z fields into BUT000 in BUSB transction.
If you need any further details pls let me know.
