Beyond boosting efficiency, process innovations here can give rise to entirely new business models.</div><div><br></div><div>Compared to traditional ERP solutions, the use of AI not only increases efficiency but also improves user experience. Especially for SMEs, which often operate with limited resources, agentic AI offers an opportunity to automate repetitive tasks and give employees more time for strategic activities.</div><div><br></div><div>Agentic AI: What’s Behind the Concept?</div><div>Agentic AI describes AI systems that are capable of independently executing tasks, making decisions, and optimizing processes—in real time. In the context of ERP, this means the AI doesn’t just process data but actively contributes to value creation.</div><div><br></div><div>Instead of relying on a single, universal AI, specialized agents can be deployed for different tasks. For example, one AI agent can automatically process invoices, while another manages customer inquiries in the CRM or optimizes inventory levels. These agents communicate with the ERP system via seamless API integration, analyze data in real time, and make intelligent decisions, making business processes more efficient and less error-prone.</div><div>The specialization of these AI agents can be achieved in two ways: either through Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), where the AI is specifically provided with relevant documents and information, or by training custom models using fine-tuning. While RAG systems enable quick adaptation by incorporating external knowledge sources into their responses, fine-tuning allows for deeper integration by tailoring the model specifically to the business processes of the company. These methods ensure that AI agents make precise, context-aware decisions that are optimally tailored to the individual requirements of a business.</div><div><br></div><div>Example 1: Agentic AI for Training and Supporting Internal Users</div><div><br></div><div>Implementing a new ERP system presents many companies with the challenge of quickly and efficiently familiarizing their employees with the new platform. This is where agentic AI solutions come into play, significantly simplifying not only onboarding but also ongoing user support. Instead of spending days reading operating manuals or participating in extensive training sessions, internal users can access interactive, AI-driven training modules.</div><div><br></div><div>The AI agents act as personal digital assistants, providing users with step-by-step guidance in real time. They can answer questions about specific features, explain processes, or even guide users through complex workflows—directly within the ERP system. If a user, for example, doesn’t know how to create a new invoice or generate certain reports, the agent can provide immediate assistance without the need for additional research.</div><div><br></div><div>Furthermore, AI agents enable personalized learning paths tailored to the individual needs and knowledge levels of users. Through integration with communication systems such as email or chat, they can also proactively provide tips—for example, about new features or best practices. This significantly reduces onboarding time and ensures users can leverage the full potential of the ERP system.</div><div><br></div><div>Example 2: Agentic AI in the CRM Module – Automating Administrative Sales Tasks</div><div><br></div><div>A common problem in sales is the lack of maintenance of the CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system, as sales staff are often too busy to enter new customer data or update existing information. Agentic AI solutions can provide targeted relief by largely automating administrative activities.</div><div><br></div><div>For instance, AI agents can automatically extract relevant customer data from emails, meetings, or phone calls and enter it directly into the CRM system. Through smart interfaces, such as integration with the email server, incoming messages can be analyzed and key information—like contact data, appointments, or inquiry requests—can be independently captured.</div><div><br></div><div>Additionally, AI agents can actively support sales staff by sending reminders for outstanding entries or automatically generating follow-up suggestions.
