I.1.5: Define Credit Control Area
Description: In this task, you define a credit control area. A credit control area is an organizational unit
that specifies and manages credit granted to customers for their purchases. A company code can only
have one credit control area, but a single credit control area can be defined to include multiple company
codes. In this case, credit management (setting and enforcing credit limits, etc.) would happen in a
unified manner across multiple company codes.
Revision: A credit control area is an organizational unit that specifies and manages lines of credit
granted to customers for purchasing. A single credit control area can be defined to serve a single
company code or multiple company codes. The benefit of the latter is that credit management (setting
and enforcing credit limits, etc.) would happen in a unified manner across multiple company codes,
limiting an organization’s credit exposure. In this task, you define a credit control area.
Note that each sequence such as shown above should be placed on a separate page, so if you are
rewriting 30 descriptions, this should take up 30 pages. Place your description sequence in the same
order as they appear in the original.
