The credit check concept for sales orders in FSCM-Credit Management implies that the credit controller does not review each sales order. When a
situation occurs that the sales orders exceed the credit limit, a Documented Credit Decision object is automatically created. Documented Credit
Decision undergoes the approval procedure. If approved, the associated sales order is automatically released.
Picture 1 schematically shows the process of create and approve Documented Credit Decision.
