Maintain credit limit in different currency then Credit Control Area

Hi,
I have a several credit control areas, some in USD and some are maintained in Canadian dollars (CAD).
We would like the credit limit of all of these to be maintained in USD. For the CAD based CCAr's though, it reads the credit limit in CAD. How can we specify that the credit limits for these CAD companies are in USD?
Thanks,

hi,
this is to inform you that,
here you have two options basing on your useage of CCA:
1. centralised CCA: on credit limit you can mainatain collectively.
2.decentralised CCA: you can define credit data for your customer for each company code.
so please analyse where your process stands and
one answer commonly is OB08 - please maintain exchange rates against USD & CAD.
hope this clears your issue

Credit Control area not filled in table KNVV

Hi everyone,
I am new to the forum and first and foremost want to thank the particpants here for their contributions, which have helped me a lot in the past.
I am facing a problem today and hope some of you could assist me with some hints on how to solve it. In the existing forum entries I could not find a solution.
I am working in a Rapid Deyployment Solution IS Retail ERP and am trying to have table field knvv-kkber filled (credit control area). Right now it remains empty, although customizing exists in a way that credit control area exists, it is assigned to company code and sales area. Customer also has a record in table knkk for the respective credit control area. Obviously field credit control area in tcode xd02 is not available and would also not be available for editing, even when screen tab customizing were changed. It is only shown in xd03. Also former key users working with a different IS Retail installation told me that they never keyed in credit control area in customer master tcodes xd*. So I am wondering right now, how system fills that field.
Thank you a lot for your help.
Regards
Christian

"""Just adding in Lakshmipathi's comment that if we maintain credit control area in KNVV-KKBER field and we have also assigned it in IMG with sales area system will give preference to KNVV-KKBER. If you have not assigned it customer master then system will determine it from customization.""""
Dear Moazzam, sorry--I need to differ with these statements.
Always System will gives the priority to sales area then only to customer.(in determining credit control area)
let me explain: If we take Credit control area determinations will follow the below procedure:
1.Through the exit(EXIT_SAPLMV45K_001)
2.Sales area(distribution channel)
3.Customer master
4.Company code
Note: For the first 3 situations,mandatorily- you need to assign your credit control area to your company code.(Deriving the Credit Control Area - Credit and Risk Management (SD-BF-CM) - SAP Library)
Dear Christain:
As you are aware, we can maintain credit control areas can differ for each sales area.
For example,same customer has been maintained with two different sales areas.
Customer X in sales Area 1000/10/00-can have credit control area A
Same customer in sales area 1000/20/00-can have credit control area B.
If business wants to maintain at customer master level--they can maintain( it is optional)
Otherwise simply they can assign for the sales area which will be defaulted into transaction level.
This is what is happening in your case.
Note: if you maintain assignments for your sales area--then this will be defaulted into KNVV-KKBER,even though you doesn't maintain manually in XD**/VD** Tcodes.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
we can have multiple credit control areas based on req-
eg: client wants to restrict customer based on divisoin wise.
then we will maintain credit control area based on sales area
there 3 division in a comp: AA -BB - CC
thens sales areas will be:
1000-10 -AA
1000-10-BB
1000-10-CC ( assuming therez one sales org-1000 & dc 10)
now create 3 cr control areas- OB45
Assign sales area to cr Control area - OVFL
Assign permitted credit control areas to comp code - IMG- FA- AR&AP- Credit Management- Credit control account - Assign permitted credit control areas to comp code.
Now you can assign this Cr CA- by sales area wise in CMR & maintain the credit limits for each Cr CA.
So when ever your needs wants to do it by division or sales area wise you can do this.
Thanks,
Raja

One or More Credit Control Area assinged to one company code

HI Guys,
In credit management , the below said customizing is done by FI.
Financial Accounting Customizing
Financial Accounting  Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable  Credit Management  Credit Control Account  Assign Permitted Control Areas to Company Code
Can any one explain why and for what purpose assign permitted control areas to company code.
Because one control area can be assigned to one company code. If not please clarify.

Credit Control Area
Definition
An organizational unit that represents the area where customer credit is awarded and monitored.
This organizational unit can either be a single or several company codes, if credit control is
performed across several company codes. One credit control area contains credit control
information for each customer.
Use
Credit and risk management takes place in the credit control area. According to your corporate
requirements, you can implement credit management that is centralized, decentralized, or
somewhere in between.
For example, if your credit management is centralized, you can define one credit control
area for all of your company codes.
If, on the other hand, your credit policy requires decentralized credit management, you
can define credit control areas for each company code or each group of company codes.
Credit limits and credit exposure are managed at both credit control area and customer level.
You set up credit control areas and other data related to credit management in Customizing for
Financial Accounting. For more information, see the Implementation Guide under Enterprise
Structure Definition or Assignment Financial Accounting and then Maintain credit control
area. You assign customers to specific credit control areas and specify the appropriate credit
limits in the customer master record.

Multiple credit control areas

Hi,
The issue is like this. The client has one company code and he wants to assign multiple credit control areas to the company code on the basis of risk categories.For the 3 risk categories, 3 credit control areas has to be assigned to the company code. In standard SAP, we can assign only one CCA to company code. Is there any workaround possible for this??
Regards,
Ajit

Hi ajit
You cant have 3 credit control areas on the basis of risk categories
In credit management you have 2 types of credit management , they are, centralised and decentralised credit management
Centralised credit mangement - one credit control area for all of your company codes.
Decentralised credit mangement - You can maintain credit control areas for each company code or each group of company codes
If you want to go for your requirements i think , we need to go for user exit EXIT_SAPFV45K_001, may be this can help .

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.

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.

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

Different Credit control area in the AR invoice document

Hi all,
Our client has the line item display field turned on for the AR reconcilation account. When we run FBL3N for this account, we see a credit control area that is different from what is there on the customer line item in the invoice document.
When the invoice was entered in FB70, the default credit control area (that defaults from OB38 - co code assignment to cca) was manually overwritten. The invoice document, FBL5N and BSEG table show the new cca, but for some reason FBL3N for the recon account is still showing the old, default cca.
Did anyone come across a similar scenario?

Hi Chait!
I have the same problem do you get any positive response about this issue?
Thanks in advance!

Distribution channel wise credit limit on one credit control area

Dear colleagues,
I got requirement to define credit limits for customers depending on distribution channel but all must be within one credit control area. Is it possible to set up system in that manner?
Regards,
Harry

Hi Shichang,
My company have 3 distribution channels Wholesales, Retail and Internet. Each of them sell unique products, but in some portion their portfolio is overlapping. Each of this distribution channels are independent departments and each of them define own credit limits for the customers. Management want to have one credit control area for reporting purposes.
One customer can buy from one or more distribution channels. If for example X Inc, buy from Wholesales they should have 100,000.00$ credit limit, but if they buy from Internet they should have 10,000.00$. Each of this credit limits need to be independent, but in reports everything should be summarized.
Hope that this detailed explanation is helpful.

Harry

Their credit limit can be set in FD32 T.Code.
Automatic credit check will be maintained in OVA8
Follow these steps:
1. Go to IMG - enterprise structure - definition - financial accounting - define credit control area.
2. Assignment of company code to credit control area & sales area to credit control area.
3. Go to OVAK select ur sales document type and in the check credit column choose from A B or C. D is for automatic credit control for which you have to maintain the credit group and risk categories.
4. In FD32 you select your customer and click on STATUS icon and press enter. here u maintain the credit amount allowed. but this is done by the Finance people.
5. Now when you create the sales order and if the amount exceeds the credit limit then u will get the message as you maintained in the TC OVAK. Normally the system starts doing credit checks from the second sales.
order.
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.

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.

Credit Control Area - SAP ISU FICA or SAP Finance (ERP) ??? and why?

Hello Experts,
I was reading about credit control area which is basically - organizational unit that represents an area responsible for granting and monitoring credit. One control area can corresponds to many company code (though vice versa is not true).
So my question is, in term of work order planning should I consider Credit Control Area as a part of SAP Finance (ERP) or SAP - ISU? nd then in that case does it contols credit limit of end customers (ISU) or vendors (ERP)?
Please let me know best reason to put it into any side. I want this information for planning purpose. Kind of vague question, my apologies for that.
Also, it would be of great help if you give me any example explaination. Anything will do.
Thanks.

Yes, you will be dealing with new transactions and with a different customizing, for example:
Functional:
Financial Supply Chain Management ->Credit Management->Rule for Scoring and Credit Limit Calculation and Check Rule
Customizing:
Financial Supply Chain Management->Credit Management->Credit Risk Monitoring
FSCM Credit management is far more complete functionality than AR Credit management.
Best regards,
Cristobal.

Maintain credit limit in different currency then Credit Control Area
