Tim Steuer, Vice President Application Lifecycle Management has a new to-do list for customers of ALM offerings: SAP Solution Manager 7.2, SAP Focused Run, and SAP Cloud ALM. Checking Tim’s list can be yet another step towards optimizing your intelligent enterprise. Here’s the September 2020 list:

Tim’s head seems to be in the clouds these days. He really wants you to give SAP Cloud ALM a try! Choose the link below the public demo tenant banner.

Since the Early Adopter Care phase concluded at the end of August, SAP Cloud ALM is now available for all customers with SAP Enterprise Support, cloud editions.


This is how easy onboarding looks. Choose the action Request to trigger a dialog box, and just follow the guided steps.



You won’t need to reserve more than an hour on your calendar to go from requesting SAP Cloud ALM to completing the onboarding process. I think the fastest onboarding feedback so far reported 9 minutes. Hop forward in time and preview this easy-to-use overview screen:



You may notice that the following screenshot of the Tasks table helps provide an end-to-end view of processes. You may then ask, what about those processes? How do I learn more about SAP Cloud ALM operations? Tim highly recommends the new openSAP course, SAP Cloud ALM in a Nutshell. The course starts September 29 and enrollment is now open.
