If you do not agree to these terms, do not click "Accept" or “Agree.” By clicking “Accept” or “Agree” you hereby represent and warrant that you have been given the power of attorney by your employer (“Customer”) to carry out this transaction and conclude the respective contracts with SAP on behalf of your employer. If you do not have the appropriate power of attorney, we kindly ask you to not continue with this transaction.
Once completed, this agreement (defined below) is a legally binding agreement for SAP Services between Customer and the SAP affiliate or subsidiary company in the country in which Customer is located and from whom Customer is ordering the Services displayed in the Purchase Review and Order Confirmation (both defined below) (“SAP”).
Please note, that the transaction will only be completed, and the contract formed, when SAP accepts Company’s offer by either SAP sending an order confirmation e-mail to Customer, or the Services have been made available to Customer by SAP. Until then, if any issue arises regarding the processing of the order, SAP reserves the right to cancel the transaction and Customer will be notified accordingly.
This order document (Order Form) is governed by and incorporates the following documents in effect as of the effective date. All documents are listed in order of precedence, and collectively referred to as the “Agreement”:
Customer has had the opportunity to review the Agreement, including without limitation the Scope Document, the GTC, the DPA and terms and conditions mentioned above, prior to accepting this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the following provisions of the GTC shall not apply: Change Request Procedures (generally section 4) and Satisfaction with Personnel (generally section 5).
SAP recommends Customer prints copies of this Order Form, the applicable DPA and GTC for Customer’s own records.
1 SERVICES FEES AND PAYMENTS
The applicable Service fees (“Service Fees”) for the Services are identified in the purchase review displayed on the SAP Store (“Purchase Review”) as well as in the corresponding order confirmation email Customer receives from SAP (“Order Confirmation”). The Service Fees are payable by Customer as follows.
(a) If Customer is registered as an authorized buyer of SAP products, Customer may choose to pay the Service Fees via invoice. SAP will invoice Customer and payment is due 14 days after the invoice date. (b) If Customer is not registered as an authorized buyer, Customer must use a valid credit card to complete this order. Service Fees will be billed to Customer’s credit card upon Order Confirmation.
2 SERVICE LOCATION AND TAXES
Customer acknowledges that the “Ship-to” address entered by Customer in the SAP Store site is the primary location of receipt of the Service(s) (“Service Location”) and should be in the same country in which Customer is located and has its billing address. It is the obligation of the Customer to consider if withholding tax is applicable. In case of any applicable local taxes, these are to be borne by Customer. Applicable taxes have to be declared and paid to the respective tax authority by Customer. Customer’s failure to provide SAP with its VAT and/or GST number may have sales tax implications. Services Fees do not include Taxes.

Customer must go live at the release version of SAP SuccessFactors which is generally-available as of the actual go-live of the Service. It is common that at least one quarterly update will be released for general availability during the duration of the Service.
- Approach and RACI
SAP will follow the applicable parts of the SAP Activate methodology which has the following phases.
- Prepare: The Service is formally initiated and the schedule, project plans and resources are agreed. The SAP development system is requested and created.
- Explore: Workshops are conducted to perform a Fit-to-Standard analysis so as to validate the solution functionality included in the Service scope and confirm the business requirements can be satisfied
- Realize: The Customer-specific business scenarios and process requirements are built incrementally through a series of leading practice configuration and test sprints. The test approach and any knowledge transfer are executed, and the Customer User Acceptance Testing is completed. The cutover is planned, and the production is requested.
- Deploy: Final checks are made before the cutover to production. End users are trained, and ongoing support is put in place by the Customer. The hyper-care period concludes, and the Service is closed. A subsequent run phase in which the operability of the solution can be fine-tuned and options for improvement can be considered is not in scope with this Service.
SAP and Customer agree the following responsibility matrix of activities per phase.
- Responsible (R): Charged with performing the activities. A mutually agreed project plan may define further details at the work unit level.
- Accountable (A): The Customer has overall accountability for its implementation and all the activities identified below. Hence, Accountable (A) does not appear for the activities below.
- Consulted (C): Provides input on how to perform the activity and supports the execution of the activity.
- Informed (I): Provided with information.
