FAQs

Out of the approximately 6,000 incoming support tickets every year, there are some enquiries that we receive more frequently. You will find instant answers to these below.

I've forgotten my password. What can I do?
Please check with your internal IT department or your SAP user advisor first to see if they can activate your password.
I cannot perform an operation in SAP®. The error message says: “You do not have authorisation”. Can I get this from PROMOS support?
No, as PROMOS support we cannot grant you any authorisations. Please discuss this with your internal IT department or your user advisor to find out what procedure you need to follow to assign authorisations.
I am supposed to test a “transport”. What does that mean?

When processing your support ticket, we usually ask you to test a correction on the test system. This is normally stored in your SAP® logon with XY2 or XYT or XYQ.

Our PROMOS support team, which has been recognised by SAP as a Partner Center of Expertise, will be happy to help you with any questions or problems you may have. Do you want to know how you can access their extensive wealth of knowledge and what you should bear in mind? Find out here!

How do I know if I am authorised to take advantage of PROMOS support? Which users can submit support requests?
Please get in touch with your internal IT team. Your company may also have an SAP user advisor or an internal SAP helpline. Otherwise, you should ask a member of your in-house IT team.
During what business hours is PROMOS support available?

PROMOS support is available from Monday to Friday between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Exceptions are national holidays and 24 and 31 December.

What can I do if a problem occurs outside regular support hours?

Send us your request as a ticket via our support portal. This will ensure that your incident is dealt with as quickly as possible at the earliest opportunity.

What options do I have for submitting a support request?

To ensure fast processing, ideally you should send your enquiry via our support portal using the following link.

Are there any costs for me as a customer for PROMOS support?

There are no costs for normal support requests in the event of a fault. However, if the ticket is a request for advice, costs will be incurred. You can find the difference between advice and a support request in the attached PDF file for download.

What should I bear in mind when creating a ticket in the support portal?

In our checklist (download as PDF) you will find important tips for creating your ticket. Please also try to reproduce the error on the test system.


As a customer, you usually have two SAP® systems available:

  • XY0 is the live system.
  • XY2 is the test system.
Can I add attachments to my ticket, e.g. a screenshot?
Yes, this is possible without restriction on the number. Please keep the attachments compact!
How quickly can I expect a response to my support case?
You will receive an immediate confirmation of receipt of your ticket. The processing time varies depending on the issue. Our average response time is three days.
How do I check the status of my ticket? Can I also view the tickets of other users?

You can view the status of your ticket directly in our support portal. You can see all the tickets you have created yourself and their status under the “My tickets” tile. Under the “Edit and send messages” tile, you can also view and edit messages from all other users in your company.

  • “Sent to PROMOS”: The ticket has been received by PROMOS.
  • “Being processed”: The ticket is currently being processed. You can see who is currently processing the ticket.
  • “Action from the author”: PROMOS has a query about the ticket. A reply from the ticket author is required before the ticket can be processed further.
  • “Proposed solution”: PROMOS has developed a solution.

If the proposed solution meets your expectations, please acknowledge the ticket in the portal. After 45 days, the ticket is automatically confirmed. It is not possible to reopen the ticket.

Is there a limit to the number of support tickets that can be opened?
There is no limit to the number. In fact, we recommend that you create a separate ticket for each enquiry to ensure fast processing and optimum documentation.
How will I receive feedback on the processing of my ticket?

In the first instance, your enquiry will be processed and answered directly in the PROMOS support portal ticket. If there is a need for a direct exchange, this will be done by telephone. Remote maintenance, e.g. via Team Viewer, Teams or ZOOM, is only used if we are unable to reproduce the issue you have described.

What do I need to be aware of for remote maintenance, e.g. via Team Viewer?
Please speak to your IT department to find out whether it is permitted to establish a maintenance connection. There may be restrictions in this respect. If possible, your computer should be connected directly to the Internet (not via a VPN connection from your home office to your company, for example), as this slows down the connection.
