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,

You cant change the Credit Control area while Creation Sales order. Sales order representing with one Sales area.

in Customizing you can set only one Credit control area per Sales area. Hence You cant change the Credit Control area.

This Credit control area is determined / copied based on customization.

Before that, what is your actual requirement, why you want to change it? hope that helps in providing any alternative.

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
