thanks for your immediate response,but it is rule to create one credit control area for a company code,and one credit control area can be assighned to more than one company code. so how can we assign different credit control areas to different sales areas in OVFL

At the same time one company code can be assigned to more than one credit control area. As well you have option of assigning the credit control area to sales area which is different then that of a company code.

How is this statement true: "a company code can be assigned to more than one credit control area?

According to Std. SAP documentation on Credit Control Areas: "It is not possible to

divide a company code into several credit control areas"

Please do not mislead if you do not know.

I Agree, lets not confuse and complicate things by providing incorrect Information.

Hi,

This dilutes the concept of credit Mgmt. Division is for your internal convenience - segregation of pdts & services. However, the customer is same - his credit worthiness, payment capacity, the exposure you would like to have with him - irrespective of which pdts he is buying from you. I am sure you will agree with this.

In this context, I am not sure there is any Std SAP soln for this. Try to do some consulting - ask your client to take it on a case by case basis - credit release transactions. or still better to review his credit limit and set according to his buyin patterns. This is the best & most efficient way - setting things right in the first place rather than looking for loopholes in your ERP system.

Last - there are always workarounds for anything in SAP. so, we might need to explore ABAP options?

Thanks
