Requesting SAP Cloud ALM

Based on your contract , SAP Cloud ALM may be included in your support contract already and an entitlement should have been created for you.

If you have an entitlement you can just to go SAP ONE Support Launchpad and request access to SAP Cloud ALM.   You can watch this video for more details.

Once your SAP Cloud ALM tenant is provisioned, you can expect some emails in your Inbox.

Emails from SAP Cloud ALM

To understand the onboarding procedure and different emails sent by SAP , you can refer this video . In general the emails vary if you have a productive IAS tenant already or if a new one is created for you.

Scenario 1:In case a new IAS tenant is created

If you are a new customer and you don’t have a productive tenant of SAPs Identity and Authentication Service (IAS) yet, a new one is created for you that will also be the IAS tenant for your productive business system, e.g. SAP S/4HANA Cloud.
