We are thrilled to announce the general availability of our SAP Signavio November 2024 release. The highlights of this release include new process AI capabilities and Joule integration, improved integrations between SAP Signavio and SAP, and quick performance and progress review with trendlines and new simplified dashboards to boost insights.
Process AI capabilities
Introducing the new AI-assisted process analyzer, text to insights capability which allows users to ask questions in natural language and receive immediate insights to accelerate business decisions. This capability is available to SAP Signavio Process Intelligence customers via a beta program. If you are interested in joining the beta program, please contact your SAP Signavio account executive or customer success partner . Another exciting highlight is the integration to SAP’s AI co-pilot Joule, available to select customers as part of an Early Adopter Care program (EAC). This integration supports early informational, navigational, and transactional use cases. Users will be able to ask Joule how to perform certain tasks, where to find specific assets and information, or request the co-pilot to execute actions like creating or deleting a process model. Additional capabilities will be added with future releases. For more information on the EAC, see here.
Process Insights
We are bringing many powerful features designed to optimize your processes and enhance business outcomes. With trendlines for process flows, you can easily identify progress or shortcomings, select specific data sets, collaborate on performance with stakeholders, and accelerate analysis. You can now analyze monetary values over time to backtrack financial performance, discover trends, make data-driven decisions, and enhance strategies to more accurately predict future outcomes. Our new personal analysis dashboards allow you to create personalized dashboards with your most relevant metrics and defined parameters, providing a quick, intuitive way to collect relevant metrics in one place for easy access and ongoing analysis. Additionally, we are expanding external benchmarks for process flows and increasing the number of covered process performance indicators, helping you set targets and efficiently prioritize improvement areas. We have also integrated with SAP Transportation Management, providing new process performance indicators and flows for source systems focused on planning and fulfillment. Lastly, a new data collection feature enables you to set the default behavior for new content, allowing administrators to determine when business content becomes available to users—either automatically or only with manual activation.
Process Intelligence
As part of this release, we are introducing enhanced data extraction and connectivity with Coupa, Microsoft, and Salesforce. You can now leverage an integration package on SAP Cloud Integration to automatically integrate data from Coupa, Microsoft Relationship Sales, and Salesforce into SAP Signavio Process Intelligence and mine it for your specific use cases. Experience the power of streamlined data extraction and an enhanced user experience through our automated pagination and partitioning strategy for SAP ERP Data Extraction, which creates a unified user flow across various connection types, streamlining workflow for data engineers. Data engineers can also define SQL filters within the standard extraction user flow by linking multiple tables in sub-queries during extraction time for greater efficiency and precision. Additionally, you can enhance your filtering experience with the new drag-and-drop interface, designed for faster, advanced data selection. This upgrade accelerates insights, improves process analysis, and streamlines workflows by providing an immediate, clear view of applied filters for a seamless user experience.
Process Management
We have a range of exciting features to optimize your process management and harmonize user experience. The integration of SAP Signavio with SAP Cloud ALM accelerates business process transformations by facilitating the transfer of to-be process models for implementation. Meanwhile, the new integration of SAP Signavio with SAP RAM enables monitoring of business-critical processes and the execution of compliance checks, ensuring effectiveness while managing associated risks. We have also added a new feature that automates the propagation of added or deleted process elements in variant management, streamlining updates and maintaining consistency. This reduces manual effort, saves time, and ensures seamless synchronization of tasks and systems. Additionally, the enhanced UI in SAP Signavio Process Manager now displays technical IDs for custom attributes of processes, tasks, and dictionary items. This improved visibility simplifies retrieval and management of custom field names, streamlining attribute configuration and saving time on integration tasks. Another enhancement is the support for the Korean Won (KRW) in simulations and reporting, significantly enhancing its global reach and enabling users in Korea to conduct precise simulations and generate accurate reports in their local currency. Finally, the enhanced business process model connector for SAP Signavio Process Manager now allows seamless synchronization of executables and task assignments from SAP Solution Manager, accurately representing system transaction usage and reducing manual effort for improved tracking and compliance. It also supports integration with managed private cloud (MPC) environments, enabling users to meet advanced security requirements. By selecting MPC as your designated data center, you can enhance operational efficiency while ensuring robust data security.
Journey Modeling and Process Governance
With our new release, journey modelers can now benefit from the automated approvals feature in SAP Signavio Journey Modeler and SAP Signavio Process Governance. This structured approval process ensures that journey revisions adhere to organizational best practices and regulations. Modelers can easily submit revisions to designated journey owners and stakeholders, streamlining both revision and compliance tasks. Additionally, they can request approvals for new journey models or changes, maintaining a robust audit trail. This feature provides real-time updates on approval status, enhances collaboration, increases accountability, and saves valuable time.
Process transformation management and collaboration
You can now enhance process documentation and analysis in your organization with the new, predefined fact sheet for process models in SAP Signavio Process Collaboration Hub. This feature provides a centralized, detailed, intuitively accessed overview of process diagrams, consolidating key information and insights in one place. With the fact sheet, users can quickly understand and analyze process diagrams and better understand processes. With real-time in-app and email task notifications in SAP Signavio Process Transformation Manager, you’ll never miss an update and can take timely action. Whether in the app or your inbox, these notifications keep you informed and productive. Additionally, enhance collaboration on insights and initiatives with targeted and transparent user access management in SAP Signavio Process Transformation Manager. The improved visibility into access rights allows you to easily share with individuals or user groups based on existing data permissions, ensuring that the right users have the access they need to drive successful transformations.
Value Accelerators
Our latest release introduces new value accelerators across the suite, designed to reduce time, increase efficiency, and enhance operational efficiency and performance within supply chain and logistics processes. We’ve introduced a new system filter for the value accelerator library in SAP Signavio solutions. This feature streamlines your search by incorporating your selected systems of interest, eliminating the need to sift through packages for compatibility. As a result, you can quickly identify the appropriate value accelerator, significantly reducing time to value.
In SAP Signavio Process Intelligence, we have a new value accelerator for aligning demand, supply, and financial plans in SAP Integrated Business Planning for Supply Chain. This enables consultants and data engineers to achieve faster results with less effort and clear guidance for analysis

The accelerators optimize logistics and supply chain management through enhanced visibility, automation, and data-driven decision-making. The value accelerator for SAP TM offers new usage process performance indicators and flows to support plan fulfillment, providing insights into SAP TM utilization for quicker access to process performance data.
