š”Ā What is SAP Joule?
SAP Joule is an AI copilot designed to provide intelligent, contextual assistance within the SAP ecosystem. Unlike generic AI chatbots, Joule understands SAP business processes, user context, and role-based permissions, allowing it to deliver meaningful, secure, and actionable responses.
šĀ Unified Across the SAP Ecosystem
Joule acts as a single AI instance connected to SAP Cloud solutions like SAP S/4HANA Cloud, SAP SuccessFactors, and SAP Field Service Management (FSM).Users can interact with Joule via an embedded web client, mobile interface (e.g., SAP Mobile Start), or third-party tools like Microsoft Teams.Regardless of the entry point, Joule maintains user context, security, and session continuity.
š¤Ā Joule’s Capabilities: How Does It Work?
When a user interacts with Joule, hereās what happens under the hood
User Input: A natural language query is entered e.g., āShow me open purchase orders for customer ABC.ā
Intent Recognition: Joule checks if the query matches:An out-of-the-box skill (prebuilt by SAP)A custom skill developed by the partner/customerOr if it requires a knowledge-based response (e.g., documents or help articles)
Knowledge Filtering: Joule pulls information from:SAP documentationThe customerās own document repositories (document grounding)Application-specific data (e.g., SAP S/4HANA)
Context Gathering:Who is the user?What are their roles, permissions, and session context?What application are they working in?
Query Orchestration:Joule composes an enriched, context-aware query.This is passed to a Large Language Model (LLM) like GPT or Gemini for dialogue generation.
Skill Execution:If the response requires action (e.g., āCreate a service ticketā), Joule invokes the appropriate skill or API.
Response Delivery:The answer or action is returned to the user, formatted appropriately (e.g., text, links, buttons).
āļøĀ Joule Skills vs. AI Agents: Understanding the Difference
š§Ā Joule Skills: Deterministic Automation
Purpose: Automate structured, repetitive tasks with predefined logic.
How it works: When a query matches a defined intent, the corresponding skill executes a fixed workflow.
Example Use Cases:
Checking contract validityRetrieving customer ordersCreating service tickets
Characteristics:
Rule-basedFast and reliableRequires clear input/output definitions
š§ Ā AI Agents: Dynamic, Reasoning-Powered Automation (Coming Soon)
Purpose: Handle complex tasks with ambiguous goals, requiring reasoning and decision-making.
How it works:
Breaks tasks into subtasks autonomouslyChooses which APIs, skills, or tools to useAdjusts the execution path based on real-time context
Example Use Cases:
Supply chain disruption management (e.g., predicting and mitigating shipment delays)Cross-system troubleshooting with adaptive workflows
Characteristics:
Autonomous planningUses LLMs for reasoningDynamic execution paths
šĀ In Simple Terms
Skills: āTell me what to do, and Iāll do it.ā
Agents: āTell me the goal, and Iāll figure out how to get there.ā

3. Workflow Orchestration
Chain multiple actions together.Add conditions, branching logic, or loops.Incorporate SAP Build Process Automation workflows or decisions.
4. Response Customization
Define how outputs are presented:Text summariesLists with links (e.g., to a contract or service call)Status updatesFull control over the user interaction format.
5. Secure Deployment via Environments
Deploy skills into specific environments (Dev, QA, Production).Manage role-based access for both developers and users.Enforce security with principal propagation and identity checks.
6. Monitoring & Lifecycle Management
Visualize skill execution paths.Debug failed steps directly within Joule Studio.Manage skill versions and rollback if needed.
š§ How Joule Skills Enhance SAP Joule
Deep Contextual Awareness: Skills leverage user identity, permissions, and current session context, ensuring responses are both relevant and secure.Unified Access: Users can invoke skills from within any SAP application where Joule is embedded, without switching apps or screens.Extensibility: You can extend SAPās out-of-the-box skills by layering in your company-specific logic, processes, or data sources.
šļø Example Use Case: Smart Advisory Companion
š¢Ā Business Problem
A consultant named John needs to handle customer requests like āHow do I implement multi-tenancy in SAP BTP?ā. Today, John manually checks contract validity, looks for similar projects, gathers documents, creates service calls, and emails customersāa time-consuming process.
š”Ā Solution with Joule Studio
Joule Studio powers five key Joule Skills that automate this workflow:
1. Check Service Contract Validity:
Queries S/4HANA Cloud to check if the customerās service contract is active. If expired, sends John a link to renew it.
2. Find Similar Projects:
Connects to a backend that uses SAP HANA Cloudās Vector Engine for semantic search, retrieving the most relevant past projects.
3. Retrieve Related Documents:
Searches for relevant SAP documentation or internal files based on the customerās request.
4. Create a Service Call:
Automatically logs a service ticket in SAP FSM, using data gathered from previous steps.
5. Send Summary Email:
Automatically composes and sends a summary email to the customer, containing all gathered information, ticket IDs, document links, and next steps.

š ļø Deep Dive of Joule Skills Development for our Use Case
šĀ Skill 1: Retrieve Similar Projects
Purpose: Search for top 5 similar projects based on a natural language query.
Process:
Created an Action Project by importing an OpenAPI specification from the backend.Defined the API endpoint to query the vector database that holds historical project embeddings.Defined input (search term) and output (project list) parameters.Created a Joule Skill named Retrieve Similar Projects.The skill was configured to automatically generate a user-friendly list with project titles and links.
Result: John can type āFind me similar projects about multi-tenancyā and Joule returns a clickable list of past projects.
šĀ Skill 2: Retrieve SAP Documents
Purpose: Retrieve SAP-related documents relevant to the query.
Process:
Added an action that queries a document repository API (e.g., SAP Help, SharePoint).Configured a Send Message step to customize how the documents are displayed (title, snippet, document type, and clickable links).Disabled automatic response formatting to fully control how Joule presents the information.
Result: John asks āShow me documents about ABAP Cloudā, and Joule returns a curated list of relevant documentation with descriptions and links.
šĀ Skill 3: Check Service Contract Validity
Purpose: Verify whether a customerās service contract in S/4HANA Cloud is active or expired.
Process:
Created an action to call the Get Service Contract API from S/4HANA Cloud.Defined input as the Service Contract ID.Built a Condition Branch to check whether the contract status contains the string āActiveā.Configured two possible outcomes:
– If active: returns a confirmation message.
– If expired: displays a message with a button linking to the contract for renewal.
Result: John can input āCheck contract SC-0001ā and Joule tells him whether itās valid or expired, with quick navigation links.
š§Ā Skill 4: Create Service Call in FSM
Purpose: Open a service call in SAP FSM based on the current advisory conversation.
Process:
Confirmed the service contract validity using the skill from the previous step.If valid, created an action to call FSMās Create Service Call API.Populated the service call details using information gathered (e.g., subject from Johnās advisory request).Designed the output message to include:
– The Service Call ID.
– A link to the FSM interface for further details.
– Status and remarks.
Result: With a simple command like āOpen a service call for this customerā, Joule creates the FSM ticket instantly.
š§Ā Skill 5: Send Summary Email
Purpose: Summarize the conversation and send an email to the customer or internal stakeholders.
Process:
Used SAP Build Process Automation to handle email sending.Created a Process Project for email with parameters like:
– To and CC email addresses.
– Email body parts.
– Subject line.Published this process into the Joule Studio library.Built a Joule Skill to trigger the process as part of the workflow.
