Indirect Access Violation ?

[Former Member]

Hi,

Customer is considering to use PI to sync data from ERP to external MS SQL, and store data in the SQL DB.

The data stored in SQL includes Material Master, PO information. These data will be access by a custom web application.

Many employee will use this web application to access material / PO info.

However, they're afraid of the famous "Indirect Access Violation" issue.

I'd like to know, in addition to PI/PO license (core based), do they need to purchase named user license for each web users? How about the NetWeaver Gateway ?

Hi mate,

    I guess that if this sentence is true: " These data will be access by a custom web application."

You only need the user between PI and the app, not each user that uses the app, to access the application,because the PI interface will be used by one user only.

Your question is:

"I'd like to know, in addition to PI/PO license (core based), do they need to purchase named user license for each web users?"

So, you will need several web application users but the application need one communication user against PI/PO

Can,

You hit the point.

As customer's plan, many web users who need to access backend ERP data (synced from ECC via PI) are not in ERP named user list. So customer need to purchase some kind of named user license for them, right ?

Hi,

   Named user for the web application i guess. I don't know whts the app, but this should be the key.
