Efficient and risk-free SAP system measurement - we do it for you!
Look forward to SAP software audits with confidence. Discover license risks before SAP does. A license measurement involves risks, requires in-depth expertise and ties up valuable resources. Even small errors can have major financial consequences. Our service relieves you of this burden while ensuring compliance and cost optimization.
Our 5-step service approach:
Data analysis: Recording and analysis of current license usage and allocation.
Compliance check: Comparison of the recorded data with the contractual license conditions to identify deviations.
Optimization: Adjust license allocation based on analysis results to ensure optimal usage.
Reporting: Automated generation of reports for internal purposes and for submission to SAP during the audit.
Continuous monitoring: Ongoing monitoring of license usage to minimize future compliance risks (warning functions).
Basic audit vs. extended audit: an overview
SAP conducts systematic license audits or system measurements to compare the software usage of its customers with the licenses granted to them. There are two types of audits: the basic audit and the enhanced audit.
The basic audit usually takes place annually, while the enhanced, more comprehensive audit is carried out less frequently, but is often used as a “decision-making aid”, especially in times of RISE.
