Up to this point, you’ve enabled Joule within individual SAP business applications. You can also extend Joule into the enterprise experience layer, where users start their day and manage work across systems.
SAP Build Work Zone and SAP Mobile Start provide a unified entry point for applications, tasks, and insights across SAP solutions. When Joule is activated here, it becomes available where users already work, rather than being limited to a single application context. This extension is a key step in delivering Joule as an always on, cross application AI experience.
Role of SAP Build Work Zone and SAP Mobile Start in the Joule Landscape
SAP Build Work Zone and SAP Mobile Start act as the experience and navigation layer for Joule:
- SAP Build Work Zone provides a role‑based launchpad that aggregates applications, content, and navigation from multiple SAP systems.
- SAP Mobile Start extends the same experience to mobile devices, reusing the Build Work Zone site and identity configuration.
When Joule is integrated with SAP Build Work Zone, it can:
- Resolve user intents across connected systems
- Navigate users to authorized applications and tasks
- Provide consistent access to Joule from desktop and mobile environments
Prerequisites and Readiness Considerations
Before activating Joule in SAP Build Work Zone and SAP Mobile Start, ensure the following conditions are met:
- A unified Joule instance is already provisioned on SAP BTP
- SAP Build Work Zone, standard edition is available in the same BTP sub-account
- SAP business applications integrated with Joule are already exposing navigation content
- SAP Cloud Identity Services are consistently configured across systems
These prerequisites ensure that Joule can resolve navigation targets and enforce authorization correctly at runtime.
