Creating an entry in a VBFA table
To create a new entry in VFBA table, I create an internal table with the structure of VFBA, then I insert the VFBA form the internal table. Is that a bad way to do this? I am used to loading the SAP table with BDC session or BAPIs. Do you know any BAPIs that we can use to update the VFBA table ?
I use the TCode MB1C to load data. After processing, I get a document #(MBLNR), then I create a new record in vbfa table (document flow).

I assume you mean VBFA. You need to think in business terms. You want to load documents into SAP, and also have the document flow. Think about the process a user would go through which would cause this information to be entered into SAP.
Then look for BAPIs (or write BDCs) that automate that process. This will ensure that VBFA contains the correct data.
You should not think in terms of which tables get updated, and it is highly unlikely that the way forward for your requirement is to update VBFA directly. Updating SAP tables directly is a good way to corrupt your database -- and lose SAP support.
