Collection segments group company codes of a
company from the view of SAP Collections
Management so that transaction data (open items,
dispute cases, promises to pay, ...) of a business
partner from these company codes can be
considered together. The collection segment also
determines which data from SAP Credit
Management is to be considered for customers in
this segment. For each collection segment, specify
the credit segments from which the system is to
determine, for example, the credit limit utilization of
the customer.

profiles that can be assigned to the business

profile and which company codes are not included

1 Carry Out ALE Master Data Distribution
Since SAP Collections Management works with the entity Business

Partner, in this case you have to configure master data distribution
between the systems involved. This means that all customers in your
Accounts Receivable Accounting must be replicated in business
partners and distributed in the Collections Management system
You can use master data synchronization to replicate the customers.

Depending on which system you run this master data synchronization in,
there are two scenarios for the distribution model to be defined:
1 Master data synchronization runs in the accounting system.
