Credit Control Area
The credit control area is the organizational unit that specifies and controls the credit limit for a customer
Credit control areas can be used to create centralized or decentralized credit control in a company with more than one company code
A company code can be assigned to only one credit control area, but each sales area within a company code can be assigned to a different credit control area

Decentralized Credit Management
Each company code sets and monitors a credit limit independently
