License declaration for "SAP DEVELOPER LICENSE AGREEMENT"

Hey there,

we use a system to recognize the licenses of the open source packages used automatically.
Some SAP packages are subject to the SAP DEVELOPER LICENSE AGREEMENT. Would it be possible to specify this license in the package.json so that it can be recognized automatically? Currently, the package.json often says See LICENSE, while sometimes SAP DEVELOPER LICENSE AGREEMENT is specified directly. Of course, See LICENSE cannot be assigned automatically by our license scanning system, so we would be happy if the package.json's contained SAP DEVELOPER LICENSE AGREEMENT directly.

I don't know if I'm creating this issue in the right place, if not, please let me know who I can contact for the mentioned projects below.

Many thanks for your support.

Best Regards from NRW
