Dear Vikas,

Pls go thru the link below. This will give full overview of credit control area & their settings.

Actually via t/code XD01/XD02 you can create CCA more then one to any customer. Even you can maintain that based on c/code level. Upon proper setting I don't think so will have any cons because SO control based on c/code/plant & sales org. So any customer input there for sure system will check whether that customer has assign to sales org, distri. channel & division. Hope this could help you. TQ

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.

Dear,

Yes you can extend customer for more than one credit control area.

You can maintain credit control area in customer master (XD01/XD02/Xd03) and also manage credit management with T.Code FD32.

Hello Vikas

Yes, customers can be extended to more than one Credit Control Area (CCA). Through assignments to Sales areas or user exits, we can ensure different CCAs to be determined in sales orders.

With regard to Pros and cons, I am unable to recall any cons if your set up is correct. But I would always recommend one CCA for one company code.
