Why do we need a Feedback Agreement?
The Feedback Agreement describes the principles of the working relationship with all involved parties. The most important ones are:
Intellectual Property (IP): Customers want to influence SAP software (maybe even services). Customers
want to see their feedback/ideas in SAP software. For being able to actually incorporate such feedback in our software, SAP needs the right to do so. That's why SAP needs a royalty free license. SAP does not want the Intellectual property on the feedback/ideas. This remains with the customers, such that customers could use that IP to create own solutions or even products. Section 6 of the Feedback Agreement says that very clearly.
Non-disclosure: All information and feedback exchanged needs to be treated as confidential, needs to stay
within the group. This is true for information SAP discloses as well as info customers disclose to SAP or to each other. In many cases we share either immature planning or internal information, that needs to be treated confidential. This is being handled in the feedback agreement section.
Customer Commitment: In many cases we discuss software to be built or shipped in 1-2 years time.
