This interactive report is free of charge for all customers on SAP maintenance and provides recommendations that are based on the way you are using your SAP ERP or SAP S/4HANA system today.

It is composed of two complementary deliverables: the established PDF report for business executive presentations and access to your report information in the cloud solution for business process experts, Spotlight Spotlight by SAP.
