What are customer Account Groups in SAP?

The Customer Account Groups in SAP control the customer master data through the field status. It enables which fields to be maintained as mandatory or optional and displays during the creation of customer master data in SAP.

Every Customer Master is included with multiple fields.  Based on the partner functions and transactions, we can assign the field status to the fields as per the requirements. So, based on the field status maintained for the customer account group, the system checks every field during the creation or change of master data.
