Kimberly-
 
When we went to SAP about 5 years ago our SAP license came with limited use Oracle licenses.  This covered all the users of SAP, although in truth only the SAP superuser actually connected directly to Oracle.  The license did not allow creation of additional schemas in the Oracle instance.  You can create additional objects in the SAP schema, but I think technically you must do so using SAP-supplied tools.  And of course you can't transfer them to a different application.
 
Sometime over the last two years I've heard that this arrangement had changed, and that we had to get our usage licenses directly from Oracle.  But since we had a corporate agreement with Oracle which covered these users anyway I never pursued that issue and can't vouch for it.

When you say for SAP only do you mean all the people who connect to SAP will be covered?

Your SAP license comes with a 'limited-use' Oracle license, which means you can use it for SAP only. Todd Carlson Oracle Database

Sent: Friday, October 26, 2001 3:35 PM <FONT size=2>To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Does anyone know if we need to buy our licenses separate for Oracle when using SAP?  Sometimes, when a vendor product runs on top of a database they <FONT size=2>supply that but I do not think SAP is one.  Thanks a head of time.
