# License calculation for SAP cloud use types

Use SAP S/4HANA cloud use types and their weighting factors to calculate Full Usage Equivalent \(FUE\) licenses for different types of users of SAP S/4HANA Cloud applications.

FUE licenses can be allocated to different cloud use types with a specific weighting factor. For more information on FUE licenses, see [Software Asset Management publisher pack for SAP](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-asset-management/software-asset-management/sap-publisher-pack.md).

Weighting factor can be defined as a numeric value associated with a cloud use type and it is used for FUE license calculation. The following table mentions the weighting factors for different cloud use types:

|SAP cloud use type|SAP cloud use type name|Weighting factor|
|------------------|-----------------------|----------------|
|Advanced|Cloud for advanced use|1|
|Core|Cloud for core use|5|
|Self-service|Cloud for self-service use|30|
|Developer|Cloud, Developer Access|0.5|
