SAP IBP, SAP’s powerful solution for supply chain planning, offers increasingly AI-driven support to planners and the planning process itself. Join us: we will start by illustrating the surprisingly sophisticated machine learning and data science features the platform offers as standard, show how to involve Joule, the integrated chatbot, in our daily planning activities, and conclude with the latest “Premium AI” tasks that Joule can perform (which seem almost like a cheat code).

Key takeaways.

  • Explore the standard machine learning and data science features of SAP IBP
  • Discover Joule, the integrated chatbot, and how to use it
  • Understand “Premium AI” features and the key business challenges they solve

Agenda.

  • Overview of key machine learning features
  • Why you should use machine learning
  • How to use the integrated chatbot, Joule, to support your work
  • Introduction to next-generation “Premium AI” that takes business planning to the next level
