How do I use SAP Live Access?

1. Fulfill Prerequisites
   Purchase a contingent if you don't have one already. Enable cookies and pop-ups in your web browser. Have the training handbook for the course and enroll in course-specific SAP Learning Room (optional).
2. Start Course
   Select Start Course on the desired row in the course catalog and follow the subsequent steps. Select a contingent to use and choose a training system in case more are available. Depending on the availability of the system, a new deployment can take up to 60 minutes.
3. Resume (Start)
   Once the training system is available within the SAP Live Access environment, it will be in a suspended state. When you decide to start your work, select Resume on the My Systems page. You will receive an e-mail notification confirming system resume is completed and contingent consumption time is now counting down.
4. Access System
   Select Access on the Active Systems page to connect to the training system. If your web browser is properly configured, a connection to the training system will be established and you can start practicing.
5. Configure System
   The course-specific setup guide provides all additional information to ensure the training system is set up correctly for the course, including login credentials for SAP applications.
6. Suspend (Pause)
   When you have completed your work, pause the training system by selecting the "Suspend" button. You will receive an e-mail notification confirming contingent consumption time is no longer counting down.
