Errors in the dictionary or documentation are the candidate's responsibility and no such error will be reason for any review of the result of the examination. The time available to candidates to complete the examination is limited and can be neither interrupted nor extended. Candidates must follow the proctor's instructions. The examination questions and tasks are copyrighted and must not be written down, copied, or otherwise reproduced in whole or in part or made available to others in any form. If a candidate disturbs the examination or breaks any examination rule, that candidate will be excluded from the examination immediately.
Successful candidates receive a certificate with a unique identification number.
The certificate names the candidate and the candidate's employer. As far as reasonably possible, unsuccessful candidates receive general information on identified gaps in their competence. Appeals must be lodged within three months after the result is communicated. SAP is not required to review appeals lodged after these three months, and is then entitled to destroy the documents. SAP will hold the results of the examination in a database to ascertain, if necessary, what certification a candidate holds and whether a candidate can be admitted to other examinations.
