Who this course is for

SAP functional consultants (FI/CO, MM, SD, PP and others), ABAP and technical consultants, support team members and key users who want to save time on SAP projects without risking client data or system quality.

You should already work with SAP (ECC or S/4HANA). If you are new to AI assistants, take AI for Everyone first.

What you will learn

  • Where general AI assistants genuinely help on SAP projects, and where they do not
  • What SAP's own AI, Joule and SAP Business AI, is, in simple terms
  • How to draft functional specifications, design documents and meeting notes faster
  • How to understand, write and review ABAP code with AI help
  • How to troubleshoot short dumps, error messages and authorisation issues more quickly
  • How to produce test scripts, test data and user training material
  • A safe way to use AI on client projects without breaking confidentiality

An important rule

General AI tools have never seen your client's system. They do not know its custom code, configuration, enhancements or business rules, and they may describe SAP menus or tables that differ in your release. Use them to draft, explain and organise, and always verify in the system, in SAP's official documentation and SAP Notes, and with the responsible team.

What you need

  • Access to an SAP system (sandbox or development, never test ideas in production)
  • An AI assistant your company or client allows
  • Sample specs, code or error messages with client names and real data removed
