The applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are proliferating. We use ChatGPT to revise text or write formulas and create digital art with tools like Midjourney. SAP is also fully embracing AI in SuccessFactors. In this blog, you'll read about the latest AI features that elevate the employee experience and the efficiency of your HR processes to a higher level.
In 2023, SAP introduced Joule, a smart digital assistant that helps SuccessFactors users quickly complete tasks and find information. This includes tasks like changing your address or retrieving information about your team members. The latest release has endowed Joule with even more functionalities, making its use even more compelling.
The functionalities can be categorized into three conversational patterns:
Navigation: Assisting in navigating to tasks that need to be performed.
Transaction: Performing actions for you, such as creating a new position or requesting feedback.
Information: Providing relevant information from internal (HR) documentation based on the questions you ask.
1. View Payslip
An employee wants to view their most recent payslip. By asking Joule, the most recent overview is immediately shown to the employee.
2. Hire a new employee
You've hired a new employee and need to create a new position for them. Based on a sample position, Joule creates the new position in the right place. You specify any necessary adjustments for the new employee. This way, you don't need to navigate multiple screens or remember position codes or names.
3. Receive feedback
An employee wants to receive feedback from the team. Through Joule, you can directly request feedback from the appropriate team members. You can also specify the feedback topics, making the process of asking for and giving feedback much more accessible and quicker.
4. Request leave
An employee wants to request leave and submits a leave request via Joule. Joule navigates the employee directly to the correct page. Previously, you would do this through your own profile or a tile on the main page.
5. Retrieve mobility policy
An employee wants to know the organization's mobility policy. If you have a mobility policy in SuccessFactors, Joule can provide the correct information directly to the employee.
