BEFORE YOU START
The questions that shape the scope.
What do we need to get started?
A priority process, a business owner and a review of available systems, data and licenses. We establish a baseline and define the pilot scope.
Can we combine standard and custom agents?
Yes, where appropriate. We first assess the fit of available SAP capabilities and design extensions where business rules justify them.
Do agents execute changes automatically?
Execution scope is configured. Actions such as price changes, transfers and replenishment must follow defined permissions, limits and approvals.
Is Joule available in every SAP environment?
Availability depends on the product, edition, release, region and contract. We verify these requirements before committing to the solution scope.
Which process needs a better way to work?
Let’s define the use case, the available information and how to measure the outcome.
