SAP® LICENSING SOLUTION - PROFILETAILOR™ LICENSEAUDITOR

SAP License Managers working in enterprises have limited visibility of SAP usage, since they typically lack the tools or know-how to gather real-time, accurate information about the actual utilization of SAP licenses. In order to collect this data, they often perform extensive manual, error-prone procedures. However, some data cannot be gathered even manually; it is impossible, for example, to manually run licensing audits for groups of activities.

Without accurate usage information, it is difficult for SAP License Managers to optimize SAP licensing or to correctly handle unused or under-used licenses, simultaneous usage, or users who have been misclassified -- resulting in charges that do not reflect actual usage.

In order to implement best practices for SAP license management, organizations need:

  • Clear processes for provisioning new users and for auditing actual user activities
  • Measurement of user activities with software that is external to SAP
  • Assistance with annual usage review with SAP
  • Adjustment of ongoing maintenance fees

ProfileTailor™ LicenseAuditor Optimizes SAP® Licenses.


PROFILETAILOR™ LICENSEAUDITOR PROVIDES A COMPLETE SOLUTION WHICH:

  • Detects dormant accounts/users with no activity, unused authorizations, and users with low usage
  • Provides SAP License Managers with detailed usage reports for each user, aiding in the reclassification of users according to their actual usage
  • Identifies and alerts to simultaneous usage of SAP license by same user on multiple computers, preventing double payments for same username
  • Enables full customization of activity groups, including creation of new groups, changing existing groups, adding activities for different roles, supporting different licensing types
  • Enables SAP License Managers to work more effectively - and to guide the enterprise in understanding and optimizing SAP licenses
