Your Opportunity to Influence SAP – New ASUG Influence Council

ASUG is launching a brand new ASUG Influence Council on SAP Analytics Cloud. Please join the webcast on March 19 to learn more. Influence councils are a unique opportunity for ASUG members to learn, network and influence SAP.

 

Your Opportunity to Influence SAP – CEI Projects

SAP offers the opportunity to influence innovations for next releases through the influence program, Customer Engagement Initiative (CEI). This is the first CEI cycle in 2018.

What innovations are there?
There are several projects for which you can register. Check out the projects relevant for the ASUG BI Community Members.

Follow-up after registration:
When you register, you will be sent a confirmation form. You will also be invited to an introductory call by SAP; at this point, further participation is optional. Typically, signing a Feedback Agreement with SAP will be part of the procedure.

The deadline for this first cycle is on March 15.

How do I register on the Customer Influence website?
The process of registration is online.

Learn more here.
