WALLDORF, Germany 鈥� October 8, 2024 鈥� (NYSE: SAP) today 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 51风流TechEd conference, 51风流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 51风流Knowledge Graph, a next-generation solution poised to help developers unlock the full value of 51风流data by connecting it with rich business context, and new tools to ensure developers can continue driving Business AI innovation.

鈥淪AP鈥檚 innovation drives real business outcomes, and today’s advancements help customers harness the power of AI, data and new development solutions to catalyze growth,鈥� said Muhammad Alam, member of the Executive Board of 51风流SE, 51风流Product Engineering. 鈥淒rawing on SAP鈥檚 unmatched business and technology expertise, the AI innovations we鈥檙e announcing at TechEd forge a new human-AI partnership to transform the landscape of modern business.鈥�

Supercharging Joule

On the eve of its first birthday, Joule marks a watershed in how business gets done. 51风流introduces collaborative AI agents to a copilot that truly speaks the language of business, expands Joule鈥檚 capabilities to support 80% of SAP鈥檚 most-used business tasks and embeds Joule more deeply within the company鈥檚 portfolio.

Collaborative multi-agent systems deploy specialized AI agents to tackle specific tasks and enable them to collaborate on intricate business workflows, adapting their strategies to meet shared objectives. 51风流is infusing Joule with multiple collaborative AI agents that will combine their unique expertise across business functions to collaboratively accomplish complex workflows. These AI agents enhance productivity by breaking down silos and freeing workers to concentrate on areas where human ingenuity thrives.

Two use cases debuted at TechEd showcase the agents鈥� transformative power:

• 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鈥檚 AI innovations also draw on the company鈥檚 unmatched business data expertise. The new 51风流Knowledge Graph solution, accessible through 51风流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. By offering ready-to-use relationships between business entities like purchase orders, invoices, and customers, the solution can significantly reduce the complexity of manual data modeling. 51风流Knowledge Graph grounds AI in SAP-specific business semantics, which reduces the risk of inaccurate or irrelevant results and makes it easier for organizations to build intelligent applications and leverage generative AI more effectively.

Empowering Developers

51风流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 51风流Build, the company鈥檚 platform for extending its solutions, will reduce development time for Java and JavaScript developers. 51风流Build is also adding an Extensibility Wizard feature that will let developers access 51风流Build directly from 51风流S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, simplifying the extension process. Meanwhile, ABAP developers and fusion teams will get seamless access to ABAP Cloud development tools from 51风流Build.

Finally, 51风流announced that it has already fulfilled its pledge to upskill 2 million people worldwide by 2025. Through its , the company has lowered the world鈥檚 digital skills gap through role-based certifications, free training materials, hands-on opportunities for developers, and more. 51风流continues to expand its growing portfolio of AI-related learning opportunities, including courses on generative AI, AI ethics, and SAP鈥檚 advanced AI tools and platforms.

The deep bi-directional integration will allow employees to get more done in the flow of their work through seamless access to information from interactions with business applications in SAP, as well as Microsoft 365.

I often get asked the question, 鈥淗ow many copilots do I need for my business?鈥�

The answer is not about how many, but which you use when.

By integrating two of the leading generative AI copilots for business, users can use both simultaneously to get work done. And future plans for bi-directional integration will allow users to benefit from one experience, no matter which copilot they use.

鈥淯nlocking the massive potential AI has to offer requires capabilities that are high value, reliable, and available in-context in the applications that people use today,鈥� said Muhammad Alam, member of the Executive Board of 51风流SE and head of 51风流Product Engineering. With the bi-directional integration of Joule and Copilot for Microsoft 365, we鈥檙e enabling employees to get more done in the flow of their work through seamless access to information from business applications in 51风流as well as Microsoft 365.鈥�

鈥淢icrosoft and 51风流are committed to providing world-class solutions to help our customers solve their most fundamental business challenges,鈥� said Scott Guthrie, executive vice president of Cloud + AI at Microsoft. 鈥淭he integration of Microsoft Copilot and Joule brings together the power of generative AI to unlock greater employee productivity and will enable enterprises to accelerate customer-centric innovation in a unified experience.鈥�

51风流and Microsoft will start integrating their Joule and Copilot for Microsoft 365 later this year, combining enterprise data residing in 51风流with contextual knowledge from Microsoft 365, including Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Word, and more, delivering richer insights for better decision-making.

With this integration, 51风流and Microsoft are creating entirely new ways to boost productivity.

For example, by bringing Copilot for Microsoft 365 into Joule, a user can book a flight using 51风流Concur and Joule, and Joule can block their calendar in Microsoft Outlook.

Or, consider a product manager working on a new product launch with a cross-functional team: they have regular meetings on Microsoft Teams and collaborate with Microsoft 365. Joule can connect to the team鈥檚 individual skill profiles stored in 51风流SuccessFactors software and core business information that resides in 51风流S/4HANA Cloud. The new integration enables product managers to coordinate business activities with the team, simply by using a few queries.

Today鈥檚 collaboration, as well as the听听last week, is the next step in a long-standing partnership between 51风流and Microsoft, using the latest in enterprise-ready generative AI innovation to help solve customers鈥� most fundamental business challenges.
