This document provides information on the partner offering – 8007218 Cloud Test and Demo for SAP
SuccessFactors HCM Business Package (hereafter as ‘partner test and demo offering’), offered in the SAP
Non-Commercial Price List (accessible via SAP Partner Pricing App) by the Non-Commercial Licensing
(NCL) team, including the order process, the deliverables, and the configuration requirements. Additional
information on access and the latest updates are available on the Learning Hub listed under Resources
below.
The Partner Test and Demonstration offering comes with enterprise SLA and standard customer support
conditions identified by Customer Support in the Resource section below. Demos are available to all SAP
partners with a Non-Commercial Licensing (NCL) Agreement. Amongst other features, these licenses can be
additionally used to fulfill PE Build partnership requirements.
This document does not cover the free trials (Free trials are restricted in limited quantities and with limited
functionality to partners designated as SuccessFactors HXM Suite partners only).
This document is intended for system administrators who will request the demo, receive the demo URLs and
credentials, and configure the modules for interoperability across the SuccessFactors HXM suite.
Note: The SuccessFactors HXM product includes deep functionality that is best used by getting the
appropriate certifications and by staying current with those certifications. Some administrator level
configuration and knowledge are expected with these demos in order to fully connect and use all the
modules. Recommended certifications and training are listed here.

HXM Cloud Ops portal (Free trails have a tenant ID like SFPART012345 – i.e. they start with SFPART, not
SFCPART).

Note:
• There are no restrictions on integration of modules with other products, and APIs are exposed to
allow external systems to connect.
• There is monitoring to ensure that the APIs are not burdened (e.g. by load testing, or poor code
practices causing expensive or invalid calls).
• If abuse of the APIs is found, tenants may be shutdown (deactivated or API calls blocked) to prevent
adverse impact to the overall environment.
