USMM2: new user license measurement program

This blog will explain on the new USMM2 user license measurement procedure.

How to technically activate the new USMM?
How to run the new USSM?

In the previous blog on USSM the user classification principles are explained. These principles are still valid for USMM2. If you want to know more about the technical working and mechanics behind the user measurement, read this blog.

Activation of USMM2

USMM2 is activated if you install a recent support package: SAP_BASIS release 7.50 (SP 11), 7.51 (SP 06) and 7.52 (SP 02). With the import of the support package the old USMM is simply replaced with the new one. Official background document from SAP: please follow this link.

The old transaction USMM is still available using transaction USMM_OLD. The only action to do is to activate the new SICF nodes:

When SAP asks you politely to apply the OSS note best to comply to the request.

In the second step you can do the user classification check and adjust when needed:

The third step will fire the regular measurement jobs:

In the last step you can transfer the results or download the LAW file:
