Abstract
Digital transformation has become imperative for businesses aiming to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving technological
landscape. Intelligent Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, particularly SAP S/4HANA integrated with artificial
intelligence (AI), have emerged as pivotal tools enabling transformative efficiencies and innovation within supply chain
operations. This paper explores SAP S/4HANA's capabilities as an intelligent ERP, emphasizing its AI-driven functionalities
such as predictive analytics, robotic process automation, and real-time decision-making. Through detailed analysis and real-
world case studies, the research highlights the significant impact of integrating intelligent ERP on supply chain management,
demonstrating measurable improvements in efficiency, responsiveness, and strategic decision-making. Finally, this study
discusses implementation challenges and presents best practices to ensure successful adoption, concluding with insights into
future trends shaping the intelligent ERP landscape.
