![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Upload the license ruleset file to your SAP system to enable Full Usage Equivalent (FUE) user classification for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Private Edition.

## Before you begin

* Deploy the SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud satellite transport on your SAP system. For more information, see [Deploy the ABAP program for SAP](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/iqZVeiaiicgS9u9qV4XzMg "Deploy the Advanced Business Application Programming (ABAP) program to establish a connection between your SAP system and your ServiceNow instance. Deploying the ABAP program allows data to be shared between SAP and your ServiceNow instance.").
* Obtain the License_Ruleset.xlsx template file from the [ServiceNow Store](https://me.sap.com/notes/3113382) download package.

Role required: SAP Basis administrator

## About this task

Note:  
Use this task only for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Private Edition deployments. If your SAP system already has a compatible license ruleset stored, skip this task. The existing ruleset is used automatically during FUE user classification.

The license ruleset defines the classification rules that the SAP user classification program (SLIM_USER_CLF_HELP) uses to determine the FUE license type for each user. The ruleset maps SAP roles and transaction codes to Named User Types --- Developer (GA), Advanced (GB), Core (GC), and Self-Service (GD). This upload is a one-time setup step. After the ruleset is stored in your SAP system, the classification program runs automatically on a schedule without requiring manual input.

## Procedure

1. Log on to your SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud system using SAP log in details.
2. In the command field, enter transaction code <kbd class="ph userinput">SA38</kbd> and press Enter.
3. In the Program field, enter <kbd class="ph userinput">SLIM_USER_CLF_HELP</kbd> and select Execute.
4. On the SAP License Administration Workbench screen, select Manage Rulesets \& Results.
5. Select Upload Ruleset.
6. Browse to the location of the License_Ruleset.xlsx file and select it.  
   Warning:  
   The file must be named exactly License_Ruleset.xlsx. Renaming the file can cause errors during processing in the SAP database.
7. Select Upload to store the ruleset in the SAP system.  
   Verify that a success message is displayed confirming that the ruleset has been stored.

## Result

The license ruleset is stored in the SAP system and is available for use by the FUE user classification program. The classification program uses this ruleset to assign each SAP user a target Named User Type during scheduled data collection runs.

## What to do next

After uploading the ruleset, establish a trusted HTTPS connection for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Private Edition. For more information, see [Establish a trusted HTTPS connection for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Private Edition](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/C3R~0g_fJW6pFFz45Yz_9g "Export the Root CA certificate from your SAP system and import it into the MID Server's cacerts keystore to establish a trusted HTTPS connection between SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Private Edition and your ServiceNow instance.").
