3556889 - Credit Limit Calculation Issue for Parent and Child Customers in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

• In SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, when creating a sales order with a "Child/Subordinate" customer, the credit limit is calculated for the child customer and not for the "Parent/Superordinate" customer.
• This issue arises when assigning the "Parent/Superordinate" customer & "Child/Subordinate" customer hierarchy and credit limit is assigned in to the Parent customer in Credit Group customers using BP relationships.
• Credit check should be performed only for the Parent customer in the Parent, Child customer relationship.
