As of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) SR2, usage type Enterprise Portal (EP) has been separated into two closely related usage types: EP Core (EPC) and Enterprise Portal (EP).
Usage type EPC provides the core portal capabilities available in the former usage type EP. Usage type EP now includes all portal add-on capabilities it provided before, but without the core portal functionality.
Where usage type EP is specified as a prerequisite for implementing an IT scenario variant, both usage type EPC and EP are required. The standalone implementation of the new usage type EPC without usage type EP is currently limited to certain ERP scenarios (see SAP ERP Master Guide).
