The technology landscape and the usage of SAP software have undergone dramatic changes. Our customers’ employees (SAP ERP, SAP S/4HANA, and SAP S/4HANA Cloud) as well as their business partners, consumers, third-party applications, IoT devices, automated systems, and RPA/bots are using the digital core. It is hard to measure the usage via Indirect/Digital Access, hence SAP is modernizing its pricing model to become more transparent and predictable when it comes to SAP licensing model.
The new pricing approach for indirect/digital access focuses on business outcomes and provides an objective measure for the use of the digital core. With the new document-based licensing model, customers now have a choice whether they wish to license their SAP software by named user (the traditional method), or by document volume (the new method).
