How can I evaluate and experience the new enterprise management layer for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, extended edition as an SAP Partner?
To get started with the enterprise management layer for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, extended edition, please refer to this blog from Juergen Grimmeisen.
Partners asked us what the best way is to learn about the details of the new enterprise management layer for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, extended edition. To better advise and support their customers, three resources come to mind:

The system can also be used to develop and co-innovate new partner content on top of the solution.

What is the content of the trial system?
The enterprise management layer for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, extended edition in the trial system is available in two flavors: multi-country edition (default setting and scope of this Cloud Appliance Library trial solution) and Single-Country edition (upon request).
Both editions cover all major end-to-end business processes.
The multi-country edition comes preconfigured and localized for up to 42 countries with an international financial template allowing for parallel accounting:
This Cloud Appliance Library trial solution reflects the “enterprise management layer for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, extended edition” with the following selections:
- Multi-country edition with 42 countries

How long can partners access the trial system?
This solution is available with a 30-day free trial license agreement (during this period, you are only responsible for the hosting fees for the cloud provider of your choice). In order to extend beyond the 30-day free trial, partners need to have a valid test & demo subscription license (including the necessary product licenses) for SAP S/4HANA as well as a valid Cloud Appliance Library subscription. The SAP Cloud Appliance Library subscription package can be purchased via the SAP Store at https://www.sapstore.com/solutions/99007/SAP-Cloud-Appliance-Library.
After 90 days, partners need to apply for technical on-prem license keys for SAP S/4HANA (the list of required licenses is available in the Getting Started Guide).
We expect this specific pre-configured content can help in understanding the details included with the Best Practices that form the foundation of the enterprise management layer for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, extended edition and provide partners with the ability to experience the system, discover available extensibility, build content on top and help answer their most pressing questions.

Hi Stephanie,
Would you be able to guide me regarding what all are mandatory/minimum components that need to be purchased/are required for S/4HANA Cloud, extended edition installations of DEV and QA?
We need the requirements of SAP Products and Licenses to develop, test and support code fixes of ABAP add-ons for our customers on Extended edition.
Thanks,
Bhavya
