I am just giving a example of understanding the SAP BusinessObejcts licensing.

Product : BA&T SAP Business BI Suite [user]
License Metric : User
Blocks : 1
Quantity : 2

Product : BA&T SAP Business BI Suite [CS] - We understand CS = Concurrent Session license
License Metric : Concurrent Session
Blocks : 10
Quantity : 1

What should we interpret from the above BOM, 5 Users & 10 Concurrent Sessions ??

Hello PR,

The BI Suite is licensed three ways; either CS concurrent sessions, Users (named users) or a combination of both.

Think of it as a parking lot analogy; A parking lot of 30 spaces for cars, where 25 (concurrent session block) cars (sessions) can access the parking lot (BI Suite) on a random basis and 5 (named users) can access the parking lot (BI Suite) on a reserved parking basis ...
