The announcement was made at a meeting of SAP Capital Markets Day, during which SAP announced that the updated ERP solution includes the following cloud components: S / 4HANA Professional Services Cloud for project management, S / 4HANA Finance Cloud for purchasing and order management, and also S / 4HANA Enterprise Management Cloud for business management.

Improvements include features such as machine intelligence and digital assistant, similar to Apple's Siri. Sven Denecken, vice president of product management at SAP, explained that the new electronic assistant is more than a simple tool for communicating with the program. It will have deep integration with solution capabilities.

“What the concept of machine learning in the next generation of ERP can do is to combine the data and provide the user with a correct understanding of the context to make the right decision,” says Sven.

The digital assistant was named SAP CoPilot and is already able to form a list of recent customer actions, search for records and perform other functions. For now, users will have to enter all requests to CoPilot manually, but the company plans to add voice support in the future.

Representatives of the company also state that now the S / 4HANA Cloud will be updated quarterly. In future updates, developers will expand the functionality of artificial intelligence, add the integration of cloud-to-cloud and API for working with third-party applications. SAP also noted that they plan to add to the system opportunities for working with the Internet of things.


SAP S / 4HANA Cloud President Darren Roos (Darren Roos) notes that the company will develop tools both independently and in partnership with other participants in the IT market. “I don’t think it matters who develops the machine learning functionality,” said Darren. “SAP will work closely with partners and pay more attention to the functionality that customers need.”

Sven Deneken says that cloud technologies and artificial intelligence will allow businesses to become more flexible. The very same SAP company promised to keep users up to date with upcoming updates.
