Navigating the road map for SAP Cloud ERP: Today, next, and beyond
SAP's near-term and long-term plans for SAP Cloud ERP by theme: embedded AI, process automation, lifecycle management and extensibility, with timelines and adoption paths toward what SAP calls the Autonomous Enterprise. SAP Cloud ERP has no artifact here, so the edges are to the two concerns the road map names, ExtensibilityExtensibilityLetting a customer change delivered behaviour without modifying it — key-user fields and logic, developer extensions, and the released extension points that make either safe across an upgrade.SAP and community, unassessed and Process automationProcess automationModelling and running a business process: the process flow, the forms people fill in, decision tables, bots for repetitive steps, and dashboards over the instances that run.

How Have SAP Customers Adopted n8nHow Have SAP Customers Adopted n8nA Devtoberfest 2026 session on what SAP customers are building with the standalone edition of n8n, from a partner who maintains an SAP OData node for it: use cases across purchase-to-pay, sales, finance and IT service, two live workflows, and the rules he works to — released SAP APIs only, no LLM in the decision path, exceptions to a person. The tool-choice half is where the edges hold: SAP Integration Suite is placed as the job for governed, high-volume system-to-system integration, and its MCP server is what the agent in the second demo reads SAP data through, while process automation is the concern the session sorts between document intake, approvals and the bot inventory that stays with RPA. The first demo is an order-confirmation check that reads a PDF, compares the lines against the purchase order over OData, asks a person, then writes the confirmation back.SAP Developers, published 2026-10-08
Enhancing Customer Master with a Custom Tab Using SAP TAXI Framework (BAdI + SE80)Enhancing Customer Master with a Custom Tab Using SAP TAXI Framework (BAdI + SE80)Walks through adding a custom "Repayment" tab to the Customer Master (XD01/XD02/XD03) using SAP's TAXI framework: an append structure on table KNB1, a subscreen built in SE80, and two BAdI implementations — CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA and CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA_CS — registered through SPRO. The BAdIs are the released extension points that keep the tab upgrade-safe without modifying standard code, the developer-extension half of the capability's tiered model.Divya_palem, published 2026-06-01
SAP MDG Cloud Ready Mode: 5 Solution Patterns, Zero BADIs: How We implemented 5 typical requirementsSAP MDG Cloud Ready Mode: 5 Solution Patterns, Zero BADIs: How We implemented 5 typical requirementsA field report from an 80%-complete SAP MDG-BP Cloud Ready Mode implementation, showing five requirements it met without BAdIs or modification: business-partner context and the MDG UI shown inside the My Inbox app, rule-based multi-step approval routing with exclusive-choice nodes, agent determination through BTP role collections, and role-specific Fiori App Variants that give Finance Experts only bank-detail fields while Approvers get full write access. Each pattern works the same way underneath — a BTP Workflow service task reads business-partner attributes over OData into the workflow context, and a user task, route or app variant reacts to it — built with key-user extensibility or SAP Business Application Studio rather than custom ABAP.steffen_ulmer, published 2026-06-01
Extending Standard S/4 HANA OData API'sExtending Standard S/4 HANA OData API'sWalks through extending a standard S/4HANA OData API with a custom field, preferring OData V4 over V2 for its closer OASIS compliance and simpler service enablement, then tracing the extensibility objects documented for the entity before touching any code. The custom field reaches the API by layering three CDS view extensions — extendView on I_Product, extendViewEntity on R_ProductTP and on A_Product_3 — following the projection chain down to where the base table is first selected, built in ABAP Development Tools for Eclipse.JuanDK78, published 2026-04-08
Clean Core maturity and the new Extensibility LevelsClean Core maturity and the new Extensibility LevelsSets out SAP's Clean Core Level concept, the successor to the 3-Tier Development Model, which grades extensibility by how upgrade-safe it is rather than by where it runs: Level A covers on-stack extensions on released RAP and CDS views plus side-by-side apps on BTP, Level B covers upgrade-stable classic APIs listed in the Cloudification Repository, Level C covers internal-object use flagged through SAP's Changelog for SAP Objects, and Level D covers direct modifications and implicit enhancements that ABAP Test Cockpit checks must block. Choosing between an on-stack and a side-by-side implementation is left to the SAP Application Extension Methodology, and the official Level classifications are filed under SAP Note 3578329.EmilianoAyub, published 2025-12-19
S/4HANA公有云版的内部ABAP拓展S/4HANA公有云版的内部ABAP拓展Argues that S/4HANA Cloud public edition's in-app ABAP extensibility is still real ABAP development, just under stricter rules: developer extensions require ABAP Development Tools rather than SAP GUI transactions, data models are defined as CDS views instead of SE11 tables, business logic is a RAP behavior definition instead of a function module, and service exposure is an auto-generated OData service from a Service Definition instead of a hand-built RFC/BAPI. The piece walks a worked example — a Fiori app that triggers the Purchase Requisition API — through CDS, RAP, OData activation on SAP Gateway, and authorization via business catalogues, and frames the whitelist of released APIs and CDS views as upgrade-safety rather than a restriction.ArthurYang, published 2025-11-24
Clean Core清洁核心概况介绍Clean Core清洁核心概况介绍Explains Clean Core as SAP's architecture methodology for decoupling custom code from standard code, and walks through the A-D grading SAP uses for a single extension's cleanliness: D for direct modification of standard tables, programs, classes or functions, or disallowed patterns such as implicit enhancements; C for internally developed functions calling unreleased APIs; B for using only SAP's classic or released APIs (BAPI, ALV Grid, BAdI); A for side-by-side extensions reached only through released interfaces onto the SAP Build extension suite. It lays out a six-step roadmap for reaching Clean Core — inventorying existing extensions, setting a reduction target, surveying SAP's extension routes (SAP GUI SE80, Fiori custom fields and logic, BTP high/low-code, workflow/RPA), writing a decision tree, splitting new development from legacy migration, and reviewing periodically — while noting that in-app development is not inherently unclean and that real decisions should weigh ROI rather than follow the theory absolutely.ArthurYang, published 2025-11-10
Enhancing Standard BAPIs: When and How to Do ItEnhancing Standard BAPIs: When and How to Do ItWalks through why a standard BAPI needs enhancing — a missing field, an extra validation, logic before or after the call, or a performance tweak — and five ways ABAP offers to do it: a BAdI found in SE18/SE19, an append structure for extra fields, a classic user exit wired through SMOD/CMOD, a wrapper function module copied from the original, or an implicit enhancement when no other extension point exists. Each technique gets its own steps, and two carry a short ABAP code example.Shantalinga, published 2025-09-29
Guide to Process Automation APIs - Part I - Getting StartedGuide to Process Automation APIs - Part I - Getting StartedExplains how to call SAP Build Process Automation's REST and OData APIs directly: OAuth2 client credentials with a service key runs as the service, while a user token (OAuth2JWTBearer) runs as the calling person, which matters wherever an API records who acted — approving a task, or reading instances from a shared environment. Since the Public environment is deprecated as of the end of 2025, a call into any other environment also needs an environmentId query parameter.Dan_Wroblewski, published 2025-07-14
Integrate and Extend with SAP Build Process AutomationIntegrate and Extend with SAP Build Process AutomationSAP's reference architecture for SAP Build Process Automation integrating and extending SAP and non-SAP solutions in cloud and hybrid landscapes, the ground process automation covers. Processes start from events, APIs, schedules or forms, the forms built in SAP Build Process Automation, as UI5 applications or in SAP Build Apps; they reach other systems through the SAP Connectivity service with actions over APIs from sources that include CAP and RAP OData destinations and SAP Business Accelerator Hub specifications, and users reach them through SAP Build Work Zone and SAP Mobile Start, with SAP Task Center as the place tasks are managed. Decisions, Process Visibility, Processes and Automations come inside the one subscription and cannot be decoupled from it; CAP appears only as a source of API actions, and the examples are business scenarios such as mass job requisitions in SAP SuccessFactors.published 2025-05-14
AI-first, API-first: What changes when AI becomes the userAI-first, API-first: What changes when AI becomes the userWhat changes in an architecture when an AI agent is the caller: AI-first and API-first principles, SAP's API governance, extensibility and the composable enterprise, with lessons the speaker draws from SAP's and other enterprise AI initiatives. The extensibility edge rests on the abstract naming extensibility as a principle and nothing more specific; no API, product or tool is named, so the talk is attached to the broadest concern it touches. A TechEd 2026 session (Wednesday 28 October, Berlin), presented by Tomasz Wilk, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.
Build agentic SAP extensions with Google CloudBuild agentic SAP extensions with Google CloudGoogle Cloud's architectures for agentic AI apps on SAP with a clean core: SAP Business AI Platform, SAP S/4HANA and SAP Business Data Cloud joined with BigQuery, Gemini and Google's Agent Development Kit. The abstract names zero-copy data agents, developer API workflows and ABAP extensions for AI integration, the last of which is the Extensibility concern; Business Data Cloud is the one atlas entry it names, and how any piece connects to another is not stated.

Extending SAP Autonomous SuiteExtending SAP Autonomous SuiteExtensibility across SAP Autonomous Suite: AI-enabled development in SAP Build solutions, the ABAP Cloud model among them, as the way extensions are designed, generated and deployed, and a direction for making extensions ready for agentic AI. The abstract names the suite, SAP Build and the ABAP Cloud model and no single feature, so the edges are to Extensibility, the concern, and to SAP Build Code, the SAP Build solution held here in which Joule generates and deploys development; which other SAP Build solutions the session shows is not stated.

The journey with clean core continues for SAP Cloud ERP PrivateThe journey with clean core continues for SAP Cloud ERP PrivateClean core in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition as it stands in 2026: what is new in extensibility, new capabilities in the dashboard for the RISE with SAP Methodology, how AI helps make custom code compliant with clean core, and new guidance on data, integration and clean core in relation to SAP's API policy. The edges are to Extensibility, the concern the session is about, and to ABAP Cloud readiness, the concern behind making custom code compliant; the abstract names no tool for either and the dashboard is not held here.

From intent to extension: Joule and the future of solution extensibilityFrom intent to extension: Joule and the future of solution extensibilityHow Joule turns natural-language intent into extensions across SAP Autonomous Suite: intent-based agent extensions, enriching the agents SAP delivers, packaging options for partners and what SAP calls a harmonised extensibility experience. The edges are to SAP Joule, which does the translating, and to Extensibility, the concern; the abstract names the directions and no feature that ships today. A TechEd 2026 session (Wednesday 28 October, Berlin), presented by Amitha Kamath, Oren Shatil and Richard Kuba, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.
What's next in extensibility for SAP Autonomous SuiteWhat's next in extensibility for SAP Autonomous SuiteAgent-driven extensibility across SAP Autonomous Suite as SAP sees it ahead: what is coming for making extensions ready for agentic AI and how SAP's assistants are meant to help with it. The edge is to Extensibility, the concern; the abstract names no assistant, no feature and no date.

Generate agentic workflows using SAP-managed n8n in Joule StudioGenerate agentic workflows using SAP-managed n8n in Joule StudioSAP-managed n8n inside Joule Studio generates a workflow from a business intent a developer states, and the workflow is then tested and deployed, consuming line-of-business application APIs, events and agents in SAP Business AI Platform: process automation with the workflow generated from intent, and agent tooling where the workflow calls agents. The generated workflow sends notifications to the Joule Work mobile app of SAP Joule, to Microsoft Teams or to Slack. SAP's abstract names the pieces and not how the generation or the n8n hosting works. A two-hour hands-on TechEd 2026 session (Tuesday 27 October, Berlin), presented by Rama Sulakshani Murari, Rumen Dimitrov, Seshadri Sreenivas Ramanarayanan and Venugopal Chembrakalathil, written here from SAP's abstract; the recording is not yet published.
