SAP's success and rapid growth are reflected in the license agreements of existing customers. Former SAP CFO Werner Brandt casually commented in an interview: "We probably don't have two customers with the same license agreements."

Ultimately, it is an open competition for arguments and contracts - a discourse of license. This discourse can be understood in its original sense, as a play on words, as once defined by the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889 to 1951): Wittgenstein refers to certain idioms as games because they follow their own laws and give words specific meanings. The SAP licensing discourse is now taking a similar course.
