You sense something is off with your authorizations. Time to open Pandora's box. In a controlled way.
Under SAP's Authorization-Based Licensing, SAP counts what a user is allowed to do, not what they actually do. STAR and the FUE model classify users by the authorization objects in their roles. One authorization object can move a user from Core to Advanced. That is the difference between 0.2 and 1 FUE per user. For 200 users, it means paying for 200 FUE instead of 40.
Most role concepts were built for access and security, not for licensing. They grew over years: copied roles, broad standard roles, project access that never got removed. None of this was wrong at the time. The license model changed around it. Today, the results show up in your STAR classification, your RISE or SAP Cloud ERP Private contract, and your next true-up.
Many SAP customers feel this. Few know where to start, because opening the topic seems to open everything at once: security, SoD, roles, contracts. This webinar shows you the order of action. Our two SAP licensing experts show you which levers move your license costs most, how to find the roles that drive them, and how to change them without putting security or daily operations at risk.
This is not a product show. It is a working session built on what we see in customer systems. Where a tool helps, we show how we measure it with samQ FinOps: what users are authorized to do, what they actually use, and what a role change means for your FUE count before you touch production.
