I believe that the other answer you have gotten is correct; as long as your development is created in the customer namespace and not SAP delivered packages, it is marketable without certification. The basic copyright comment is also correct — theoretically, if yo can prove you createdit first, it’s automatically copyrighted; however, if you don’t actually REGISTER the copyright, don’t expect to win a lawsuit if someone steals your code!

Sorry but you’re all wrong.
Review SAP copyright: Unless specified by SAP (in Writing) any development and rights thereto belongs to SAP.
Enjoy

Hi,
Don’t know about your company … I seem to remember signing something when I hired on, 17 years ago, about “intellectual property”. Given what a SAP system costs, you’ve probably done it on company time, hardware, and software.
I wrote a COBOL program based on an IDMS datatbase that my manager thought may have been marketable … it got stalled in the the companys legal department. See an attorney … CYA.
Regards, Bill
