Relationship between credit control area and Segment

[Former Member]

hello,

im trying to understand the relationship between credit Control Area and segment.

client has over 100 company codes across the globe all in different currencies. if we create a credit control area for each Company code, the currency wouldnt be an issue. but i dont understand why you also set a currency at the segment level. in the credit segment is where you are setting the actual credit limit and the currency is derived from whats configured in the segment. so what does the credit control area currency actually drive?

so what happens if my segment CUR is USD, but my CCA is EUR or vice versa?

thanks,

-Nick

Hi NW,

System monitor credit limit in credit segment currency regardless of the currency of the commitment report to SAP credit management.
