Empowerment to ignite Enterprise AI Revolution
SAP SE recently unveiled groundbreaking AI innovations across a technology foundation that drives 87% of global commerce, putting its generative AI copilot Joule at the center of a new way of doing business.
At its annual SAP TechEd conference, SAP announced powerful new capabilities that complement and extend Joule, including collaborative AI agents imbued with custom skills to complete complex cross-disciplinary tasks.
Other innovations include the SAP Knowledge Graph, a next-generation solution poised to help developers unlock the full value of SAP data by connecting it with rich business context, and new tools to ensure developers can continue driving Business AI innovation.
“SAP’s innovation drives real business outcomes, and today’s advancements help customers harness the power of AI, data and new development solutions to catalyze growth,” stated Muhammad Alam, Member of the Executive Board of SAP SE, SAP Product Engineering.
“Drawing on SAP’s unmatched business and technology expertise, the AI innovations we are announcing at TechEd forge a new human-AI partnership to transform the landscape of modern business,” he continued.
Supercharging Joule
On the eve of its first birthday, Joule marks a watershed in how business gets done. SAP introduces collaborative AI agents to a copilot that truly speaks the language of business, expands Joule’s capabilities to support 80% of SAP’s most-used business tasks and embeds Joule more deeply within the company’s portfolio.
Two use cases
A dispute management use case employs autonomous AI agents to analyze and resolve dispute resolution scenarios including incorrect and missing invoices, unapplied credits and denied or duplicate payments.
A financial accounting use case employs autonomous AI agents to streamline key financial processes by automating bill payments, invoice processing, and ledger updates while quickly addressing inconsistencies or errors.
Harnessing the power of data
SAP’s AI innovations also draw on the company’s unmatched business data expertise. The new SAP Knowledge Graph solution, accessible through SAP Datasphere and Joule in Q1-2025, will give users a deeper layer of business understanding by seamlessly mapping relationships and context across SAP’s vast data landscape, empowering organizations to make better decisions with their data.
Empowering developers
SAP also launched a swathe of innovations for developers to continue driving Business AI innovation. New generative AI developer capabilities such as code explanation and documentation search in SAP Build, the company’s platform for extending its solutions, will reduce development time for Java and JavaScript developers.
Finally, SAP announced that it has already fulfilled its pledge to upskill 2mn people worldwide by 2025. Through its learning opportunities, the company has lowered the world’s digital skills gap through role-based certifications, free training materials, hands-on opportunities for developers, and more.
SAP continues to expand its growing portfolio of AI-related learning opportunities, including courses on generative AI, AI ethics, and SAP’s advanced AI tools and platforms, a press statement concluded.
