SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition 2608 advances the autonomous enterprise with new AI-powered innovations that help users work more efficiently, automate routine processes, and make decisions with greater confidence across connected business systems.
In this release highlights video, Sang Dao, Product Manager for SAP Cloud ERP and SCM Product Success, introduces three innovations delivered with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition 2608. See how Joule Work, AI-assisted goods receipt processing, and the International Trade Classification Agent help move AI from a background productivity tool into an active, collaborative business partner across the enterprise.
You’ll see how Joule Work serves as a central engagement layer that goes beyond traditional chat. It understands user intent, surfaces the right insights at the right moment, automates routine activities, and coordinates intelligent AI agents across connected business systems. By bringing together conversations, business context, and AI-generated workspaces, Joule Work helps employees solve complex business problems in a single, seamless experience.
The video also introduces AI-assisted goods receipt processing for daily warehouse operations. Users can take a photo of a paper delivery note on a mobile device, and the system uses optical character recognition together with AI-powered document processing to extract relevant information. When the extracted data matches an open purchase order, the goods receipt is automatically pre-filled, allowing users to verify quantities and post the receipt in just a few clicks.
Finally, Sang introduces the International Trade Classification Agent. This agent helps trade specialists simplify product classification for international shipping by analyzing product characteristics and recommending appropriate commodity codes and customs tariff numbers. Each recommendation includes a clear explanation, helping users review, validate, and approve classifications while saving time, reducing errors, and supporting compliance through an auditable decision-making process.
