1. SAP
Do you know the state of your SAP license inventory? Which employee is using which SAP
application? And whether that employee‘s usage is consistent with the type of license
purchased? How many licenses does your company even have and how many are actually
necessary? With our SAP license manager samQ you easily gain an exact overview. It’s as
simple as that!
2. LICENSE OPTIMIZATION WITH SAMQ
The samQ software enables continuous and fully automatic optimization of SAP licenses in all connected SAP systems and thus
always establishes the lowest license status. Current license statuses, engine use and licenses from third-party products are
available at a glance in samQ‘s own web-based dashboard AMV. Extensive customizing settings allow users to also take into
account details of company-specific SAP contracts and thereby exactly reflect the respective business conditions.
Existing SAP licenses are checked against actual user activity and immediately changed to the correct license. Unused licenses are
identified and inactive users disabled. Just as quickly deactivated users can be reactivated with the click of a button. The result is
lasting optimization of the SAP landscape. Elaborate preparations for SAP license measurement are now a thing of the past and
auditing is transparent and verifiable.

3. The optimization engine is a transaction-evaluated database and
works based on complex functionalities:
For example:
„Enter data“
„Change data“
„View data“
„Verification of change documents“
„Module-specific identification of licenses“
„Verification of developer activities and object changes“
„Administrator activities that are not subject to charge“
and much more
The optimized license key will be sent back to the customer‘s
C system and can be automatically changed directly in the user
data (update).
