cks.OUTLOOK – Integrate emails directly into SAP Business One

Import emails and attachments from Microsoft Outlook directly into SAP Business One and link them to the relevant documents and business partners. This way, your email communication becomes an integral part of your SAP processes.

Email communication is often not part of SAP processes

Most communication with customers, suppliers, and partners takes place via email. Quotes, inquiries, confirmations, and documents are sent and received daily through Outlook.

However, this information often remains in the email inbox and is not directly available in the SAP system.

Import emails and attachments directly into SAP Business One

With cks.OUTLOOK, emails and attachments from Microsoft Outlook can be imported directly into SAP Business One and assigned to the appropriate transactions.

This makes relevant information immediately available in the ERP system, where it can be processed further in the appropriate context.

Transfer emails to SAP in a targeted manner

Emails can be transferred directly from Outlook to SAP Business One—without any detours or manual steps.

The user decides which content is relevant for further processing.

Organize attachments

File attachments from emails are stored in SAP Business One along with the email.

This means that documents such as quotes, orders, or invoices are directly linked to the corresponding transaction.

Direct assignment to business partners and documents

When importing an email, it can be linked directly to a business partner or a specific document.

This ensures that the communication is immediately available and traceable within the correct context.

Centralized Availability in the SAP System

All imported content is available centrally in the ERP system and can be viewed by authorized users.

Email communication thus becomes part of existing processes and is no longer managed separately.

The chatbot operates on the RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) approach, retrieving data from a database to answer questions as accurately as possible. These data, along with the user’s question, are sent to the language models of OpenAI, Inc. without transmitting any personal information about the user. The models attempt to answer the question using the provided data and return the response. The data are sourced from one of our internal databases, comprising text documents with marketing information about products and services of the SIGMA Group.

(2) The following data are processed: session ID for user requests, the time of the request, the request itself, the chatbot’s response, the topic, and the language.

(3) We process this data to analyze the productivity of our chatbot and to continuously improve it. This includes the following purposes:

  • Chatbot performance optimization: We collect and analyze interactions with the chatbot to evaluate its efficiency and performance. This includes, for example, questions the chatbot could not answer, repeated inquiries on specific topics, and similar issues.
  • Enhancing the user experience: We use data to improve the user experience. This includes analyzing user feedback to make adjustments and expansions to the chatbot to better meet your needs.
  • Error detection and resolution: The data allow us to detect errors and issues in real time, enabling faster resolution and updates to the chatbot.
  • Statistical evaluations: We generate aggregated, anonymized statistical reports on chatbot usage. These reports contain no personal information and serve to analyze trends and patterns.
