Enhancing Costs and Usage
Customer Challenge: Controlling cloud service costs, especially when using consumption-based commercial models.
Innovative Solution: New 'Costs and Usage' overview page in SAP BTP Cockpit.
In addition to the new look and feel, the new experience provides a very welcome increase to the transparency and traceability of costs. The billing view allows you to compare the service costs and even drill-down to the costs per subaccount.
With dedicated labels, you can also search and filter results to manage internal cross-charging. For convenience, you can then bookmark the filters and queries for future use and easy sharing.

SAP Discovery Center Innovations
AI Units Estimator and New Commercial Models
Customer Challenge: Calculating and estimating AI units for Generative AI features
Innovative Solution: SAP AI Units Estimator
With the introduction of the commercial model AI Units for Generative AI features, customers can now estimate the number of AI Units required for features such as Email Draft Recommender, Job Description Generator, or Lead Booster. This estimator is designed to assist in calculating the monthly or yearly AI Units needed for budgeting or contractual purposes.
Try it out by adding Email Draft Recommender and Job Description Generator to the AI estimator. The advanced input will guide you through a series of questions to determine the appropriate number of AI Units. Once completed, you can easily share your estimate with colleagues or customers.
In addition to the AI Units commercial model, you will also find the SAP BTP Enterprise Agreement (SAP BTPEA) commercial model. For a comprehensive overview of all the available services within SAP BTPEA, go to the SAP Discovery Center Service Catalog and select the SAP BTPEA commercial model.
