SAP user license & audit

Hi all,
      I am a starter in SAP.
      If i suppose procure 10 user license and installed the SAP package, can i create more than 10 user id's. Will the system allows me to do it? If yes how can SAP AG will check it.
      Also can anyone tell me when SAP will conduct the audit in an implementation project. i have heard something like 'sox' audit. I am not even clear about the terminology used. Pls give some inputs.
Thanks in advance,
Raj.

hi,
as it follows the independent concept so an audit team can represent the internal organization or external.
actually it is performed to identify and evaluate complex business and technology risks and related opportunities for internal control improvement to reduce the risk and enhance the quality, assurance and security of information systems and business processes.
so the organization needs to perform it either by using its internal team who are aware of the concept of SOX std. or the organization can give this job to external unit to do the same.
below is the link which shows diff types of SOX :

hope this will help you!!!
Thanks & Regards,

  • User Type (Dialog , Communication etc) can impact on SAP User Licensing

    Dear Expert,
    The User Type (Dialog, Communication, System etc) can impact on SAP User Licensing.
    Suppose if I craete a user type other than DIALOG such as SYSTEM or COMMUNICATION etc; will this be counted as License User. Or only DIALOG users are paid license users.
    Kindly advice.
    Regards

    Thanks Uday and Nagendra...
    Dear Nagendra,
    with reference to below sentense from your referred link
    " Consolidating Contractual User Types  
    Use
    With this procedure, you consolidate the contractual user types of the individual users. The LAW takes account of the fact that certain contractual user types are already contained in others. In this way, license costs are only incurred for the inclusive user types of the user."
    When I go User Classification Display screen, under Contractual User Type column all my 150 users are marked "Operational" but for those which I defined as System / Communication User are defined any contractual user type.
    What does it mean??
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi,
    Before running USMM, it is recommanded to set all the userids (except SAP* and system generated communication users like TMSADM etc) to dialog. Service user can be used for the purpose of multiple logins without prompt that this user id is being used by other user also. This is agains the contract. That's why it is always recommanded to first change the type to dialog orelse on demand, explain the specific purpose to change the use type to other than dialog.

    We can use USMM and SLAW and following is the link for the same.

    Steps
    1)Categorize the user like cat 1 etc before starting the audit.
    2)External communication to SAP should be on to send the results to SAP,.
    Please let me know if there is something else you have done.

  • SAP License Audit and DDIC user

    Hello, we recently completed our first SAP License Audit and an issue came up with our DDIC user in the productive client. According to the SAP Licensing and Auditing documentation DDIC is not counted in clients 000 and 001, however we have DDIC in client 400 (our productive client) and I set it as a SAP Web AS User in the Contractual User Type. However, we should not have to pay for a standard SAP user and I was going to remove DDIC from client 400, but I see it's needed for transports.
    How can I assign DDIC a user type that does not consume a SAP License?
    - Regards,
    Richard

    Hi Richard,
    You don't need to and should not remove DDIC and SAP* from your productive client.
    As Nick mentioned already, please assign License type 'Test' to the standard users SAP*, DDIC etc in your productive client (400).
    When the users are defined with 'TEST' license type, they will not be measured in System License Audit report.
    Cheers !!

  • Question about sap license audit,could you  help me

    how many users can my test system use ?   Does SAP concern the users I used in test system ?
    could you give me some information about that?  thanks a lot.

    Hi,
    We have hundreds of user on our production system, and several developer user and have been go live several years ago (SAP R/3) and proceed license audit annualy.
    Typically, license audit is calculated by the number of user on your production system and the number of developer user on your (development) system. Hence, the number of usual user (which is not developer user) on your test system should not be brought into SAP license audit calculation.
    to proceed, first you have to clasify contractual user type via SU01, and then proceed it using USMM transaction.
    hope it help you,
    rgds,

  • SAP User Maintenance Against SAP License

    Hi Everyone,
    I would like to ask for an assistance regarding sap user. This is the scenario: The company has Employee A which was given sap userID with corresponding roles/profiles. Correct me if I'm wrong, the sap license depends also on the number of user in sap system. On this company, they reached the limit of their license according to number of user, for example 400 user. Suddenly,  Employee A resigned. New employee came, Employee B which will replace the job doing by Employee A. If we add another userID on sap system, the number of user will be 401 which exceeded the max user based on the license agreement. One way to solve this issue is to delete the userID as well as the profiles of Employee A and create new userID and profile of Employee B. Another way is to change the userID of Employee A and used its profile to Employee B. Is there available documentation from SAP supporting the above procedure?
    Regards,
    Ronald

    Licensing is based on active users. So if you lock user A, set its validity date to the day he/she left and take away the roles and profiles this user will not count for your licenses anymore sou you can safely create a new account for user B.
    Deleteing users can cause issues in workflow related proceesses and troubles searching in change documents. There have been some discussions about this in the Netweaver forum.

  • SAP Portal user license

    Dear All!
    I am trying to dig for SAP's policy about SAP Portal user licensing... Is there any document or does anybody know how SAP deals with portal users' licensing?
    Moreover, is it legal to map multiple portal users against single backend (SAP ECC) user? If yes then is there any limit to it?
    I am waiting for the response.
    Regards,

    Satish,
    I read your post regarding your check on EP - R3 License. I'd like to know more about your check.
    In our region, we hardly find any clear response on this issue.
    My scenarios is typical : Many User Account in EP UME (either local db or link to AD), and we have lots of custom Web Dynpro application using JCo destination to read as well as write data to R3.
    We're not sure how many R3 License we need for this scenario.  From your reply, "one license" were mentioned for "WRITE" data to R3. I'm not sure what the "one license" mean.
    Let's say we have 5 concurrent EP user having "WRITE" operation (via our web dynpro and then JCo, RFC) against R3. Do  you mean we need to buy 5 R3 license ? or just one R3 license for "service account" ?
    Hope you can shed some light
    Thanks
