SAP Ariba Intake Management features
AI-powered single front door for demand intake
Simplify procurement intake, enhance productivity, and ensure compliance with a natural language AI copilot.

Transform demand intake into a guided, frictionless experience with Joule, SAP’s context-aware AI assistant. Users simply describe what they need, then the AI assistant asks the right questions, gathers details, and accurately routes requests.
Grounded in policies, the AI assistant acts as a real-time compliance advisor, reducing errors and cycle times while ensuring every request follows the correct process. This results in faster approvals, improved compliance, and a more intuitive experience for business users.
