SAP AI Demo Series: 05 – AI-assisted Smart Summarization
We are excited to continue our SAP AI Demo Series, showcasing the transformative capabilities and innovative solutions that SAP delivers in the field of Artificial Intelligence. This series provides valuable insights into how AI-driven advancements are reshaping processes across multiple domains.
SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition, now offers an AI-driven capability that allows users to quickly generate natural language summaries of SAP Fiori elements-based object pages. The AI-assisted Smart Summarization feature leverages Generative AI to condense complex datasets into clear, actionable summaries. Using the Select Sections menu, you can choose the specific content to include—requiring at least one section. A large language model processes the request, and the resulting summary appears in a rich text editor, where you can adjust both the wording and formatting as needed. The Copy All button makes it easy to transfer the summary directly into an email.
