In manufacturing environments, traditional search methods, lengthy item codes, complex product catalogs, and frequent changes in component variants make identifying the right item codes a tedious task. What’s more, incorrect procurement can cause production bottlenecks, equipment downtime, service disruptions, and increase operational costs. Modern production and service operations cannot afford such inefficiencies.
That’s why, we are tapping into AI-led computer vision and SAP to automate visual identification of item codes with iView (Integrated Visual Identification of eCatalog). Unlike traditional methods that rely on complex part codes and manual catalog searches, iView enables manufacturers to identify the correct item codes directly within their internal procurement portal simply by uploading an image of the required component in the global search field. Further, seamless data transfer between SAP Commerce and backend systems such as S/4HANA ensures accurate, real-time search results. This significantly improves speed, convenience, and accuracy in item code identification in turn helping to reduce errors, accelerating procurement cycles, and minimizing the risk of production disruptions.
