Sales & Service

Customer-facing work, designed.

Sales reps and CSRs lose the most time to status questions and the manual triage that follows. Joule agents pull from S/4HANA Sales, CX, and credit data in one pass and arrive at the rep with the answer plus the proposed next move.

Joule agents in Sales & Service

What we have shipped, and what we can build for you.

SAP validated our first 20 Joule agents in early 2026. The library keeps growing. Below are the agents that land in sales & service, plus concepts our agent factory can build next. See the full catalog

What each agent does on its own

  • Flags watches and tells your team, takes no action itself
  • Suggests drafts the work, a person approves it before anything happens
  • Acts handles routine steps itself, within limits your team sets

Engagement shapes

A few ways a sales & service engagement usually starts.

01

Fiori UX rollout on the SD core

4-6 months

The screens and workflows reps actually open, designed in the AppHaus and measured on adoption, not training hours.

See a case study

02

CX Service Cloud + S/4HANA tie-in

3-5 months

Service case workflow connected to the customer master, installed base, and AR so the CSR has the whole picture in one place.

03

Gen AI Sales Assistant pilot

8-12 weeks

A Joule agent on the rep desktop, scoped to one product line or one customer segment, instrumented for adoption.

SAP Cloud Platform

Global Medical Device Manufacturer

Mindset ran a Design Thinking engagement with the device maker's service and call-center teams, rebuilt service order processing on SAP Fiori, and cut a multi-screen maze down to a single screen. Adoption climbed sharply across the field service team, then in 2025 the work evolved again with a joint SAP x Mindset Agentic AI Design Workshop.

Mindset ran Design Thinking with Patterson's field technicians, built a new SAP Fiori service app in two weeks, and within 16 weeks of rollout 85.9% of the team had adopted it voluntarily, cutting 60-day open service orders from 13,000 to under 4,000 and capturing $1.3M in annual revenue.

Consumer and Retail

SAP Fiori

Specialty tile retailer

Mindset built a full suite of custom SAP Fiori and point-of-sale applications for a 140-plus-store specialty retailer, turning off-the-shelf SAP screens into purpose-built tools that front-line store associates could actually use.

SAP (sales order-entry)

A North American Compliance and Regulatory Information Services Company

Mindset ran a Design Thinking workshop to surface what users actually needed from the company's SAP order-entry process, then followed up with a code review of the existing application to map a practical reuse-and-rebuild path.

SAP ECC

Home-improvement retailer

A Design Thinking workshop with store associates exposed why product lookup was failing on the floor, and an agile Fiori build gave associates real-time SAP data on the Android device they already carried.

Foundation models behind Joule

Claude and other foundation models now ground Joule agents for sales coaching and service summaries. Multi-model by default.

The shared spine

Built on BTP, designed for the people running it.

The sales & service work doesn't run alone. It sits on BTP, on a clean data layer, and increasingly under Joule agents. Same architecture as the rest of the SAP work we do.

From our thinking

All insights
Common questions

Before you book.

How fast can we ship a usable Joule agent for sales or service?
A scoped agent on a real workflow, in production, in 8 to 12 weeks. We start with one job that has a measurable outcome (handle time, adoption, cycle time) and grow from there.
Do the agents replace the rep?
No. The default decision right is PROPOSE. The rep stays in the loop, the agent does the assembly and drafting. ACT is reserved for narrow rule-clear cases like routine restock or a credit release inside policy.
Does this work with our CRM if it is not SAP?
Yes. Integration Suite handles the cross-system data. We have done Salesforce, HubSpot, and Microsoft Dynamics tie-ins to SAP for sales and service flows.
What about field service?
SAP Field Service Management plus S/4HANA Service is the spine. The Dispatcher and Service Case Resolver agents sit on top of that. We have shipped this pattern at industrial-services scale.
Where does adoption usually break down?
The screen is too busy or the workflow needs four clicks where one would do. Design Thinking, run in our AppHaus with the people on the front line, is how we get past it. It's why our adoption numbers run 85 to 99 percent.

Let's talk sales & service.

Bring the real problem. We will spend a working day on it, with the people who will actually have to live with the answer.
