Credit Control Area incorrectly referenced in billing doc

I have made two credit control areas 1000 and 2000. 1000 is the default cca for the company code.
Now for some sales order the cca is correctly determined which is 1000 but when they reach the billing level the cca changes to 2000 which is unbelievable.
When I check out at the delievery level it is blank.
For most of the sales order it works correctly by referring the cca in the sales orer into the billing document
I am checking the cca values by the backend tables..Cant find any logical solutin
Kindly Help,
Sam

Hi
Check if:
1. The 'overwrite cc area' check box is checked in the step Enterprise structure>Assignment>FInancial Accounting-->Assign Conpany code to Credit control area.
The cc area can be over written during document posting if the option is checked
2. If the sales area related to the order you have created is assigned to the Credit control area in question in the customizing step Enterprise Structure>Assignment>Sales and Distribution-->Assign sales area to credit control area.
Hope it helps.

*Billing Document Splitting with Credit control Area*

Hi
please give me solution for the following matter
there have some invoice splitting with credit control area from sales order header , because some orders available credit control area some order not available credit control area . can i create one billing document for those without splitting?
thanks
L.C

Hi L.C,
You can see VBAK-KNKLI field differs in sales document. The split is standard system behavior since
these are header fields. Please refer to note 11162 for details on split criteria for invoices.
In order to avoid the split you can either clear the fields in the copy control or you can change your credit management
configuration so that the credit accounts determined are the same.
I hope it can help you.

Credit Control Area.

Hi Gurus,
In the Change mode of the Customer Master Record, The Credit control area field is not appearing. But in Display mode of Customer Master record it is appearing. What is the reason? How we can enable It in change mode?
Regards
Jyothi.

Dear Jyothi
Go to IMG path -- Financial Accounting --> Accounts Receivables and Accounts Payable --> Customer Accounts --> Master Data --> Preparations for creating Customer Master Data --> Define Screen Layout per Activity (Customers) (TCode OB20).
There if you have created the customer via VD01, then double click on Change Customer (Sales) and double click on Sales data and again double click on Billing tab. There you can see the field Hedging and credit contr. area with different options maintained there. You have to change here.
If you have created the customer in XD01 initially, then select Change Customer (Centrally) and proceed as suggested above.

    Here, the individual credit checks for key fields
    o credit control area
    o risk category
    o credit group are set. Take these key fields from the above settings and go to the detail

What are the different types of credit checks?
By Sunilmadho
Credit Check can be :
1) Simple Credit Check
2) Automatic Credit Control
Automatic Credit Control can be at various levels :
1) Order
2) Delivery
3) Goods Issue
Automatic Credit Check is of many types :
1) Static
2) Dynamic
3) MaximumDocument Value
4) Maximum Open Items in percentage
5) Oldest Open Item in number of days
6) Crtitical fields change
7) Highest dunning level, etc.
You can create more.
Credit Check happens only in SD module, never in FI. Because the stage of the check is in the sales cycle, which exists in SD. FI guys will check the credit master sheets of the customer, the MIS, the analysis etc, review the credit limits of customers. But the check will happen only in SD, while creating order, delivery or doing the goods issue.
All business have their own credit management needs, SAP allows you to specify your own automatic credit checks based on a variety of criteria. You can also specify at which critical points in the sales and distribution cycle the system carries out these checks.

Change Credit Control Area in SO

Dear expert,
After setting "Assign sales area to credit control area" done, how can I change/overwrite default Credit Control Area during creating Sales Order ?
Many Thanks,
Blue Sky

Thanks Reazuddin MD for your response
The actual requirement is we currently use one single customer master (Sold to Party). User wants to post sales transactions with different subgroup of customer (such as Regular, Member, Credit etc). And this info must be derived to FI module (Billing transaction) in any object form because FI User want to see line items with different customer subgroup.
Currently, we try to apply customer subgroup with field "Customer Group" in SD; however, this field will not derive to FI module. So, my initial idea is to use "credit control area" mapping with "Customer Group" (1:1) for example,
Customer Code: 10001
Customer Group (SD)     >     Credit Control Area (SD>FI)
01 (Credit)                                 0001 (Credit) --> Default Value in Sale Area
02 (Regular)                              0002 (Regular)
03 (Member)                              0003 (Member)
When user create SO with "Customer Group" = 02, the system has to change Credit Control Area from default sales area (0001) to 0002 by either manually change or user exit.
Or are there any alternatives to take care this requirement.
Thanks for your useful advice

Customers extended to more than one Credit Control Area ?

Hello ,
Please advice ,SAP Customers (payers ) can be extended to more than one Credit Control Area ?
Yes or No ?
Pros & Cons ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vikas

Hi Vikas,
You can map one customer to two different credit control areas:
However you need to understand the following points:
1.Delinking of company code to existing credit area (FI)
2.Allow at compnay code more than one control and allow overwriting also(FI)
3.Allow the existing risk categories to work in new control Area (FI)
4.Change layout of customer master (if credit control area is not activated in sales area-Billing Tab)
5.Creation of Validations in FI that No entry to customer ledger shall pass without assignment to control area.
The Process of having multiple control area under one compnay code though not advisable however if business requires this you need to configure.
Pros:
1. Single customer code
2.Credit control division wise
3.AR can be taken division wise
Cons:
1.Master data maintenance would increse
2.user need to put credit area in all transactions specially-Credit & debot Notes (FB70) and advance payments.
If You require any other help pls revert.

Credit Controll area

Dear all,
I am using one credit control area for two company codes.
is it right?
if my customer is belong to both company code, i want to give credit limit different as per cmpany code then is it possible?
if i assign credit limit to customer then is it applicable for both company code & consider as a total credit of both company code.
Also is it consider all the values of order, billing from both company code while consider as credit limit.
Plz send me the details regarding the same.
Thx & Regards,
PM

Hello,
There can be one or more company codes under one credit control area, but it is not possible to assign a company code to more than one credit control area.
Within a credit control area, the credit limits must be specified in the same currency.
The credit limits assigned to customers in one company code are limited only to that particular company code.
Normally customers are created independent of the company code i.e. each company code will have their own customer master records.
But if you have the same customer in both company codes...........you can either create a customer master with same customer number with both company codes or with different customer numbers in the customer master record.
If you have the same customer number in both company codes..........then the system will not allow you to have seperate credit limits as the system takes into account the customer number and credit control area while fixing the credit limit (FD31) .
on the other hand if the customer numbers are different, then you have the flexibility to issue different credit limits in different company codes.
so any orders raised in that particular company code will only take the credit limit of the customer from the corresponding company code.
REWARD POINTS IF HELPFUL

User exit for merging the credit limit in different credit control area.

Dear All,
Please provide user exit for the merging the credit limit in different credit control area as well as logic for the same.
I have to merge the overall credit limit of the customer for some divisions. At this time in one company code we have created 9 credit control area as per product line. While creating customer master data and Credit management (FD32) user has assigned the different limit with respective to credit control area e. g Customeru2019s total limit assigned is 10 laks. For credit control 1100 Limit is Rs. 3 laks and for credit control area 2200 limit is 7 laks. Now the user wants to merge the credit limit for only above two credit control area. The sales orders should get created in any credit control area up to 10 laks.
Regards,
Suresh

Dear Damodhar/All,
Would you please explain me prerequisite setting from functional side for these user exit?
I want complete functional setting prior to ABAP application so that it work properly post configuration.

Problem in credit control area

Hi Gurus,
We have configured credit control area using Static Credit check.
We have assigned the same to order type and delivery type also.
While creating sales order, even though the total value is crossing the credit limit which is set in FD32. the system is not prompting any error.
Please suggest, where we could have gone wrong..
Sridhar.P

Hi gupta,
you need to check the following in customizing settings.
Credit checks can run at different times during order processing.
For delivery creation, you can additionally specify whether the automatic credit check occurs at the time of delivery creation and/or goods issue.
In this menu option, you specify the sales document types for which a credit check should be carried out. Here, delivery types can be controlled separately and specifically at the time of goods issue.
At the same time, you specify the system responses if credit checks are set. The system can respond in the following ways:
     Warning message
The document can be saved.
     Error message
The document cannot be saved.
     Setting a delivery block (credit status)
The document can be saved. However a block is automatically set in the credit status.
Actions
1. Define for each sales document type whether a credit check should be carried out. Enter "D" if an automatic check should be carried out.
2. Specify a credit group.
3. Specify a credit group for the delivery type for which you want to carry out a credit check.
4. Specify a goods issue credit group for the delivery type for which
Reward points.

Currency in credit control area - Urgent !

Hi,
The client wants to change the currency in the credit control area from SIT (Slovenian Tolar) to EUR ( Euro). Can somebody list the impact of changing the currency in the credit control area.
Its URGENT !
Regards
Karpagam

Hi,
I don't think we can change the currency of Credit Control Area after the transaction data is posted. For the same Custome account part of the transactions will be in SIT and part of them in EUR. Even if it allows it leads to inconsistencies in the tables.
Check whether there are any OSS notes for changing the currency of Credit Control Area.
Probably, you can consider to set up a new Credit Control Area with EUR currency.
Thanks

Assign Company Codes to new Credit Controlling areas after going live.

Dear FI Experts;
Our Status Now:
We Have 3 Company Codes, CC 1000, 2000, 3000 and one Credit Controlling Area Code 0001, and the Customers are assigned to this Credit Controlling area with no problems and we are live since about 9 months ago.
Requirement:
We have a requirement to split the Customer Credit limit between companies, which means we have to create more credit control areas for example CCA 0002, and 0003, and though assign our 3 company codes to the new credit control areas, as follows:
CC 1000 to CCA 0001
CC2000 to CCA 0002
CC3000 to CCA 0003
And my Question is, what is the procedures to follow to do that (Not a Customization Procedures, I mean the How the Customers would be affected and the open items for them and how to resolve that), since as mentioned above we are already live since 9 months ago, and credit management is active and all our customers are assigned to our old Credit control area 0001, and also what is the consequence of doing that new assignment since we are live, thanks for your reply

You will need to manage to create new credit master data under new credit control area. System should reorganize existing credit data after reassignment, that is when you change master data (create credit master under new credit control area), new credit exposure is calculated based on AR in company code and existing open orders will get rechecked for credit under new credit control area & new risk categories assigned to them.
