  Write-off is a term used in SAP CRM-CLA Claims Management to refer to the process of reducing or eliminating a customer's debt. This is done by either reducing the amount owed or writing off the debt entirely. The write-off process is used when a customer is unable to pay their debt or when it is determined that the debt is uncollectible.
