Calculate internal credit scoring
In the scoring you can combine customer master data and transactional data (e.g. payment behavior) to score a customer.The scoring is based on formula that can be freely defined by the user.
In the scoring method you can include ratings from external sources. Multiple external ratings can be mapped to an internal rating to make them compareable
Use a black-rated customer list to prevent business with high risk customers
Example credit management process:
- A sales order that is entered in the sales system can be checked automatically in the credit management system.
- If the check fails, the order is blocked and the credit manager can review the customer credit profile.
- He can request credit report from an external source. (e.g. D&B)
- Based on new external information the scoring and a new proposal for credit-limit can be automatically calculated by the system
Based on the new credit limit the credit manager can release the sales order now

Credit Manager Analytics
- Role-based access to credit management information and analysis
What allows Credit Rules Engine?
- Create a scoring formula and credit limit formula by using the formula editor. Parameters (for example, business partner data) and functions are used as input parameters.
- One scoring formula and several credit limit formulas (for each credit segment) are assigned to the rule for scoring and credit limit calculation, which is assigned to each customer in the credit profile. The risk class is determined directly from the score.
- In customizing, specific score ranges which do not overlap are assigned to each risk class. For the check rule, the system determines the steps which are taken to check the creditworthiness of a customer when a sales order is created. This may include the static check of the credit limit or acheck of the highest dunning level.
- Customer-specific process chains in SAP Credit Management can be defined through events which trigger follow-up actions
