Hear about the existing Joule copilot, AI Foundation on SAP BTP etc. We will also get a preview of upcoming AI innovations for finance, HR, procurement, sales, and more.

  The presentation will cover: 

1. The world is constantly changing and organisations need to be ready for any situation. That’s why we have infused Business AI throughout our applications to ensure customers are proactively informed, allowing you to act rather than react.
2. Join us to see AI generated real-time Business Insights, along with embedded AI supporting finance users’ daily tasks and collaborative end-to-end processes which traverse seamlessly across system boundaries.
3. Get a sneak peek into some of the AI use cases SAP is deploying internally and the value they are delivering.
4. Discover our latest AI use cases developed and road-tested with our customers to really add value. Learn how you can get involved and co-innovate your AI use cases together to automate finance and bring out your best with SAP.

Join us as we showcase our custom-developed SAP Fiori applications, designed to optimize lifecycle management of Aker BP's Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) elements. Our solutions are integrated into one master landing page in Fiori, which provides a seamless, end-to-end workflow covering everything from WBS request initiation and approval workflows to creation, release, and even closure. Discover how this tailored approach enhances our efficiency, transparency, and control across the entire WBS lifecycle.

Finance professionals are often overburdened with manual tasks that leave them unable to focus on high-level strategies. Many finance departments, maybe such as your own, could greatly benefit from process automations. Automating simple tasks within payroll, accounts payable/receivable, and account reconciliation processes can save invaluable time. In this session we look how SAP Build Process Automation can support your finance department: how to make use of pre-built content by SAP or even build your own automation as citizen developer.

Panel discussion: How to make SAP Finance fit-to-purpose to meet new and evolving business needs?

Focusing on finance, we will explore how SAP can be utilized to meet the evolving needs of modern businesses. SAP emphasizes that software should be highly configurable and extensible, promoting the principles of "back-to-standard" and a "clean core" approach, utilizing best practice business processes and Business Technology Platform (BTP). But how does this align with current business realities?

Many companies have a legacy with SAP R/3 and SAP ECC, systems designed and customized in the 1990s, when modifying standard SAP was the norm. So, how can organizations transition from their current setups to a flexible, modern finance architecture? And what might that architecture look like?

We addressed our whole mindset around working with data and connecting this to the executional processes rather than just reporting needs. By supporting our users to transition from silo- based offline planning to integrated executional processes, effects of changes to a plan in a more integrated  environment become visible, here Marianne will share expereince.

This implementation is the beginning of our transformation. We now have a foundation which will allow us to continue to improve our way of working, grow our understanding of the end to end supply chain.

E-invoicing and e-reporting requirements are advancing rapidly on a global scale. Addressing each mandate individually can hinder scalability and long-term visibility for businesses. The complexity of CTC e-invoicing compliance is growing for businesses, demanding more effort and resources than Tax and IT teams can afford to keep pace with ongoing changes. Automated document management not only accelerates processes and reduces errors but also ensures that businesses have access to complete and accurate data, which is necessary for compliance.  
 
Hertz Casseus, Senior Regulatory Associate with Pagero, is an e-invoicing and CTC model expert. From the US but currently living and working in Gothenburg, Sweden, he is tasked with consistently and routinely researching compliance measures associated with e-invoicing mandates and CTC implementations; the perspective brought from his experience and background is holistic. Navigating the landscape of e-invoicing and CTC is complex, and Hertz’s expertise sheds light on legal, technical, and commercial aspects impacting businesses and governments across the globe.

ClickLearn is a knowledge capturing tool, that will turn any task in your business system into a full set of learning materials and live on-screen assistants

Join us to explore how businesses are streamlining their printing and scanning processes across any SAP environment - whether on-premise, cloud, or hybrid—to any printer, label device, or output destination.

Through real customer stories, learn how organizations are reducing their total cost of ownership by eliminating print servers minimizing SAP Basis staff involvement, and preventing missed SLAs and deadlines. Certified for all SAP output interfaces, including BTP, BC-XOM, and Rise With SAP.

The starting points of the Journey to S/4HANA and RISE can vary. BMW, for example, moved an extremely complex landscape with more than 100 highly customized SAP systems to the cloud. At the Woolworths Group, on the other hand, the initial situation consisted of one very long-standing SAP system - 15 years of ECC development work awaited the move to S/4HANA. In both cases, there was one major challenge: the custom code. And in both cases there was one solution: smartShift Intelligent Automation.

Learn how both BMW and Woolworths reduced technical debt and security risks accumulated in the systems over years, how automation accelerated the projects significantly and how the high precision and depth of code corrections lowered testing efforts and project risk.
