Hi
I find it difficult to understand the terms of use.
I realize that most users just press accept without even reading the terms and without caring if they comply with the terms. That's not me
Does the following part mean that I am not allowed to use function modules, classes etc. developed by SAP (like CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES) in software I develop.
Or does it mean that I am not allowed to create a modified copy of programs, function modules, classes etc. developed by SAP?
Or am I allowed to do all of the above mentioned examples as long as I have necessary licences to use the original SAP software or I sell the software, to customers who already have necessary licences to use the original SAP software.
Or does it mean something else?
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to give You the right to modify, copy, distribute, transmit, display, perform, reproduce, publish, license, create derivative works from, transfer, or sell any SAP Software or any other Intellectual Property Rights of SAP for any reason unless otherwise permitted by law. You hereby agree to assign and do assign to SAP any modifications or derivative works of any SAP Software made by You in contravention of this limitation.
And I'm sorry - I do believe I can read English, but I don't understand if this part means, I am allow to provide feedback or other constructiove comments to SCN or not?
