total amount

The amount in this field specifies the overall credit limit the customer may receive in all credit control areas.

individual limit

The amount in this field specifies the maximum credit limit the customer may receive within a credit control area.

credit limit

The amount entered here represents an upper limit for the total receivables and the foreseeable receivables from the customer.

And what are the effects of each of these values in the system?

Depending on the credit settings in the backend (t.code OVA8), when the customer's receivables exceeds these amounts, the customer can be blocked for further sales.

Dear Fsmehmet ,

TOTAL AMOUNT

Total amount is the maximum credit limit which can be awarded to the customer including all credit control areas.

For Ex.

Suppose you have 2 CCA 1000 and 2000 Total amount you give here is $100000.

Then, sum of credit limit in both CCA cannot be more than $100000.

INDIVIDUAL LIMIT

Individual limit is the maximum credit limit which can be given to the customer in that particular CCA for that particular customer.

For Ex.

Suppose you have 2 CCA 1000 and 2000 Total amount you give here is $100000.

And Individual amount for 1000 - $70000

2000 - $50000

Note: Individual amount cannot be higher than Total amount.

In this case you can give max Credit to the customer in CCA 1000 is upto $70000 and for CCA 2000 is upto $50000 but the sum of credit limit in both CCA cannot exceed $100000.

CREDIT LIMIT

Credit limit is the value against which credit is checked by the system.

Hope this clears your understanding.

Total Amount:

The value entered in this field,specifies the overall credit limit of the particular customer in all credit control areas. {IF the customer is under multiple credit control areas} ( ie adding all the limits)

Individual Limit:

same as above BUT under SINGLE CREDIT CONTROL AREA.

The 3rd one is self explanatory.
