Abstract

This paper explores the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in SAP Variant Configuration (VC) to enhance supply chain optimization. By automating complex processes and leveraging intelligent algorithms, organizations can achieve increased efficiency, reduced lead times, and improved decision-making capabilities. This study highlights the key benefits of combining AI and RPA in VC, including enhanced customization, improved accuracy, and faster response times to market demands. Case studies illustrate successful implementations, providing insights into best practices and future directions.
