Integrated versus Stand-alone systems Where BI systems draw or are fed their data from a classical SAP solution, such as SAP Business Suite or SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse , the (indirect) use of these application requires a license as the BI users are also considered as users of the underlying SAP application. Thus, where integrated scenarios are deployed at a customer, LMBI determines the necessary SAP application user. Where licensing of integrated and stand-alone systems is handled differently, the details are explained on different slides.

Example: A customer runs two SBOP BI installations. (1) If both are licensed with a BI Suite contract, one BA&T SAP BusinessObjects BI Suite platform license will cover the user IDs of an employee in both installations (additional licenses will be required for editor rights). (2) If one is licensed with a BI Suite contract and one with a BI Package contract, the employee will need both a BA&T SAP BusinessObjects BI Suite platform license and a SAP BusinessObjects BI Package platform license to cover user IDs on each system. The two platform licenses of these different license models cannot be merged. (3) If both (productive) systems use a CPU or a CSBL (or CAL) license, the deployed number of sessions will be added.
