A rolling cumulative plan
Enrolling in the OLP is easy - purchase any 2 licenses (or 75 points). Your first product order establishes your discount rate. If, during an eight-quarter period your point total places you in a higher tier, you will receive the deeper discount on subsequent purchases. Business Objects will send you account summaries at the end of every calendar quarter, showing purchases made underyour Agreement Number, including points, licenses and software distribution. When you have been in the Open License Plan for more than two years, this summary will also appear if any of your first quarter’s points have dropped off. This could affect your current discount total, however if you have placed an off setting re-order, we will be happy to reinstate your original discount level. The dropped points will not affect your software licenses.
