SAP Build continues to evolve to support how modern teams work — now with more artificial intelligence, flexibility, and speed. In Q1 2025, we delivered a wave of innovations across SAP Build Code, Process Automation, Apps, and Work Zone to help developers and business users turn ideas into enterprise-ready solutions faster than ever.
Whether you're building custom apps, creating SAP S/4HANA extensions, or streamlining processes, these updates will help you move from concept to value more efficiently. Let's review the top 10 updates we selected from last quarter.
Licensing and Availability Updates
1. SAP Task Center Now included with SAP Build Work Zone
SAP Task Center is now embedded in all SAP Build Work Zone editions, giving users a unified view of workflow tasks from multiple SAP systems — right within their Work Zone homepage. No separate integration is required. This update also extends to partner licensing, making including Task Center in custom Work Zone scenarios easier. The result is faster approvals, centralized task tracking, and higher productivity for business users and managers — all in one workspace.

2. SAP Build Apps Now Available in More Regions
You can now deploy SAP Build Apps in EU11 and Sydney data centers, bringing your applications to more users. The increased coverage improves app responsiveness, supports region-specific compliance needs, and enables global scalability for your enterprise use cases.
Joule for Developers Updates
3. Generate End-to-End Workflows with a Prompt
In SAP Build Process Automation, developers can now describe business scenarios in natural language — and let generative AI create forms, decisions, and process flows automatically. Powered by SAP's purpose-built large language models (LLMs), this capability delivers contextualized, SAP-aware outcomes that speed up workflow creation and reduce manual effort. It also empowers business users to contribute to process design without writing code.
4. Generate UI Pages from Data in SAP Build Apps
SAP Build Apps now uses generative AI to propose user interface pages based on your data model. For example, if your app contains entities like Books, Authors, or Genres, Joule recommends corresponding screens, layouts, and controls. This helps teams move quickly from data modeling to interactive UI design, shortening prototyping cycles and improving design consistency.
5. Use Generative AI for Fiori UI Creation in SAP Build Code
Developers can now use Joule in SAP Build Code to generate Fiori-based UIs for existing CAP apps by entering the command /add-ui or selecting the Joule icon in the Storyboard. Joule understands your application structure and proposes relevant layouts, controls, and navigation patterns, helping you scaffold front-end apps quickly and focus on customization instead of starting from scratch.
6. Multi-Agent Support for CAP App Generation
SAP Build Code now uses multi-agent support powered by Joule to generate complete CAP applications. Each agent focuses on a specific part — like data models, services, or UI — so you get a more complete project from a single prompt. This enhancement saves time and helps you focus on business logic instead of building everything from scratch.

7. Extend SAP S/4HANA with Custom UIs (Planned for Release Soon)
Coming very soon in SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition, developers will be able to use the SAP Build Extensibility Wizard to create side-by-side extensions—either by customizing existing SAP Fiori apps or building entirely new web applications. This approach enables teams to meet specific business needs while preserving the core system, supporting clean core principles and long-term agility.

8. New Enhancements for Guided Experiences by SAP Build
New enhancements to Guided Experiences by SAP Build help simplify complex processes like employee onboarding, parental leave, procurement approvals, and IT service management, where multiple steps, systems, and stakeholders are involved. With this release, ready-to-use content packages for SAP SuccessFactors Employee Onboarding and Cross-boarding are now available in the SAP Build Store—enabling faster rollout of consistent, step-by-step guidance for new hires and internal transfers.

9. Create a Wait for an API Call Trigger
With new support for intermediate message events, SAP Build Process Automation lets workflows pause until specific API-triggered inputs are received and resume automatically. This powerful capability reduces wait times and manual monitoring, helping teams design more adaptive and responsive processes with fewer errors and overhead.

10. Revamped Project Overview in SAP Build Code
A redesigned Project Overview in SAP Build Code provides a clean, tree-based view of all app components, supporting CAP Java and CAP Node. This enhanced layout integrates with the Storyboard, making it easier for developers to navigate complex projects, onboard new team members, and stay focused while building.
