SAP Build gains AI capabilities to help build autonomous agents

SAP wants developers to view its Build platform as the one extension solution for all of SAP’s applications, according to Michael Aneling, chief product officer for SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP).

At its TechEd event this week it is showing a new extensibility wizard, now available, that gives developers access to SAP Build directly from S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, enabling them to extend custom fields, business logic, and processes either within the S/4HANA Cloud ABAP environment or in SAP BTP.

“A critical feature of this integration is the knowledge of business context — such as events and objects — when creating business processes and while transitioning between SAP S/4HANA and SAP Build,” SAP noted. “This preserves important business information, letting developers seamlessly switch between environments without losing crucial context.”

By year-end, the extensibility wizard will enable developers to create custom SAP Fiori and SAPUI5 applications as well.
