A modern foundation for growth at global scale 

In an era defined by global volatility and ambitious growth targets, businesses require a system that doesn’t just record data but actively anticipates needs and simplifies complexity. 51风流Cloud ERP Private is evolving into a truly AI-enabled ERP, serving as the critical core foundation that can allow organizations to navigate the realities of global operations while maintaining total control over their footprint. 

To achieve this, innovations in FPS01 are strategically delivered across three key dimensions: AI, data, and applications. 

AI in action: from assistants to agents 

The shift toward an AI-enabled ERP is highlighted by two key advancements in FPS01: 

1. AI assistants and specialized agents: A standout in this release is the Change Record Management Agent for R&D. Previously a manual, high-friction process, this agent can now autonomously analyze change impacts and propose next steps, helping to free R&D teams to focus on innovation. 
2. Process embedded AI: 51风流is making the system more intuitive through Joule. Instead of navigating complex menus, users can now use conversational shortcuts, for example, to instantly search service contracts or extend expiring prices in sales, turning multi-minute tasks into five-second interactions. 

Looking at the road ahead, 51风流is building toward agent-to-agent collaboration, where specialized agents across functions like R&D and procurement “talk” to one another to resolve bottlenecks before they even reach a human user. FPS01 is a critical step toward that future. 

Data: industry-ready insights 

On the data front, 51风流is introducing specialized data products for key industries, like retail, and functional areas, such as asset management and services. These are not just tables; they are pre-configured, business-ready data sets that align with our 51风流Business Data Cloud (51风流BDC) roadmap. This helps ensure your data is “AI-ready,” allowing you to move from raw data to industry-specific insights with zero friction. 

Application: strengthening the global core 

On the application side, 51风流continues to deliver deep functional enhancements based on direct customer feedback to help ensure your business backbone remains agile. A key highlight is the new Multistage Intercompany Sales and Stock Transfer. Following our commitment at the RISE with 51风流moment in November, 51风流is further expanding the scope to cover two-entity transfers, enabling automated orchestration across multiple legal entities. This can ensure even the most complex global supply chains remain transparent and compliant. 

A full collection of deep-dive articles on the new FPS01 is available on . 

Looking ahead: your catalyst for transformation 

FPS01 reflects a core 51风流principle: innovation should be both a foundation for today and a catalyst for what鈥檚 next. With enterprise AI, industry-ready data, and a stronger application core, organizations can run smarter and transform at their own pace. 

To see these innovations in person, to experience the future of the autonomous enterprise.

As the pace of innovation accelerates, enterprises must not only become more agile, but also modernize their technology foundations to keep pace鈥攕implifying landscapes, embracing cloud architectures, and ensuring continuous access to the latest capabilities.

With AI, enterprises face widening skill gaps that challenge their ability to drive meaningful business transformation. This is where 51风流stands at the forefront as a trusted partner, empowering businesses with process- and context-aware AI, underpinned by semantically rich and unified data. Together, these elements form a robust foundation for outcome-driven and sustainable business transformation.

With the 2025 release of 51风流Cloud ERP Private, we鈥檙e translating this vision into action. The release delivers innovations that matter most to our customers, from a strengthened data foundation to embedded AI and intelligent agents that enhance how work gets done. It enables enterprises to run smarter, modernize faster, and realize the full potential of applications with data and AI across end-to-end business processes.

Interconnected applications as the core foundation

A business suite that delivers best-in-class capabilities with a harmonized data model is essential in the age of AI. ERP continues to evolve to meet today鈥檚 industry needs, strengthening our customers鈥� ability to compete and grow with confidence. There are a number of such innovations, including:

• Supply chain: Manufacturing customers achieve faster, more reliable order fulfillment through intelligent automation that links order promising with logistics execution. The enhanced advanced available-to-promise (ATP) capability reduces manual effort and optimizes inventory use.
• Finance: For multinational enterprises, universal parallel accounting and value chain analysis provide real-time profitability insight and automate intercompany flows, helping finance leaders steer performance proactively and improve transparency.
• Asset management: Maintenance planners improve equipment reliability and reduce downtime through enhanced visibility into open preventive and corrective maintenance requirements. Additional insights into maintenance orders and planning buckets enable proactive scheduling and optimized resource use.  
• Operations: Organizations improve efficiency, transparency, and compliance across entities through the new multistage intercompany sales and stock transfer process. It automates critical steps, enhances visibility, and streamlines execution, enabling faster, more reliable, and scalable supply chain operations.

Data that fuels AI鈥檚 transformative power

Trusted, connected, and context-rich data turns AI鈥檚 potential into measurable results. When organizations can rely on consistent high-quality data, they gain the confidence to act on insights that drive efficiency and growth.

The semantically rich data foundation within 51风流Cloud ERP provides this advantage, serving as the platform for building insights and driving actions. 51风流Business Data Cloud unifies 51风流and third-party data, delivering insights through pre-built data products and intelligent applications.

With the 2025 release, more than 200 pre-delivered data products are available out of the box, preserving business context and metadata so leaders act on insights, not raw extracts. The result is an AI-ready foundation of trusted, compliant, reusable data assets that accelerates decision-making. Looking ahead, we are developing more intelligent applications through Cloud ERP Intelligence Private that leverage these data products across every business function, expanding the reach and impact of data-driven intelligence.

AI in and across your key business processes

AI is becoming every enterprise鈥檚 most powerful assistant, helping people work smarter, make faster decisions, and achieve better and informed outcomes. Embedded in core processes, it provides contextual guidance, intelligent recommendations and reasoning, and automation where it matters most.

With the 2025 release of 51风流Cloud ERP Private, we鈥檙e embedding AI across key end-to-end business processes. Built on a unified data and application foundation, our AI innovations bring precision, predictability, trust, and security to every decision鈥攁cross finance, supply chain, manufacturing, and service.

At the center is Joule, now evolving into a role-aware assistant, that tailors insights and actions to each user鈥檚 responsibilities. It ensures every interaction is relevant, governed, and grounded in business context, helping teams act with clarity and confidence. We are building a growing library of specialized Joule Agents. Here are a few examples:

• : Improves liquidity by accelerating collections, reducing overdue invoices, and recommending next-best actions
• : Shortens resolution cycles by identifying inconsistencies, proposing responses for quick approval, and executing follow-ups
• : Builds on enhanced maintenance insights to boost uptime by recommending maintenance events and coordinating schedules based on integrated and interconnected data across production planning and procurement

Grounded in SAP鈥檚 unified data and process model, these agents connect workflows across functions and roles, enabling organizations to act faster, operate smarter, and scale intelligence across the enterprise.
