3722951 - Pricing category for a business role reflects as "Advanced" despite deactivating all Advanced IAM apps - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

  • Pricing category for a business role reflects as "Advanced" despite deactivating all Advanced IAM apps within it. 
  • Uncertainty regarding whether pricing is determined based on the assigned Business Catalog or active IAM apps within the role.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Assign a standard Business Catalog (Advanced) to a business role.
  2. Deactivate all Advanced IAM apps within it.
  3. Retain only Service and Core IAM apps active in the business role.
  4. Observe that the pricing category for the business role still reflects as "Advanced".

Cause

The pricing is currently determined based on the assigned Business Catalog, regardless of the activation status of individual IAM apps within the business role.

Resolution

  1. Understand that pricing is currently derived from the assigned Business Catalog, and deactivating IAM apps within the business role does not affect the pricing category.
  2. Note that SAP is working on a future change where pricing will be calculated based on active IAM apps within the business role.
