PKL? Deception and camouflage!

The new licensing model for indirect use can also only be evaluated and appreciated if one knows the associated PKL. Nevertheless, DSAG board member Andreas Oczko praised the new model in a press release last week, and SAP CEO Bill McDermott claimed this week at the quarterly financial press conference that all problems have now been solved and existing customers are happy and satisfied again - only there is no trace of the PKL, which would actually be the key to the new happiness of SAP's existing customers.

In familiar harmony, SAP and DSAG are deceiving and camouflaging here: a new license model without PKL and technical specifications for execution is worthless.

SAP itself says that the software tools for applying the new licensing model for indirect use will be delivered later, but Bill McDermott already knows that indirect use is no longer an issue for his existing customers - problem solved, patient dead!

You can read all the details about the status of the new licensing model for indirect use in the current E-3 Edition May 2018 on page 14: New game, new luck.
