Define Call Control in SAP

In this SAP Logistic tutorial, you will learn the step-by-step procedure to define new Call Control in your SAP system. This SAP tutorial contains proper screenshots of each and every step.

What is Call Control in SAP?

Call Control in SAP helps users to represent JIT call outbound processing in their system. The call control is a very flexible system therefore the users can define a different type of control for every call item (for summarized JIT calls), as per their business requirements.

The call control is based on actions that the user can define according to the processing status of a components group. Once the system completes the action, it assigns a new processing status to the components group.

While creating and editing a Business Role, you can easily assign work centers and work center views, and define access restrictions for each view.
