Abstract

The ecstatic expansion of the enterprise operation in clouded Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems has ascended need to automate the processes intelligently. Oracle Fusion Cloud is a popular ERP platform which combines sophisticated workflow solutions but still, manual interventions during approvals, exceptions processing as well as process-orchestration still bring about inefficiencies and delays in approvals and exception processing. To meet these demands, this paper offers the design and plan to apply Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents to Oracle Fusion Cloud to streamline important business procedures. The framework makes use of AI models to make permissive decisions during approvals, find anomalies when managing exceptions, and optimize workflows flexibly to minimize the duties of machines in adherence to regular, albeit time sensitive operations. The rule based approach is applied with the inclusion of machine learning models as a hybrid approach that will warrant a high level of adherence to enterprise policies and guarantee dynamic and evidence-based decision-making. The case studies, which were carried out within the financial and human capital management modules demonstrate the practical advantages of this approach. The results present quantifiable productivity changes and operational cost efficiencies, where the approval cycle time and the need to have more than 40 percent less manual interventions in exceptional handling situations will decrease by up to 35 percent and earlier results. These benefits go further to enhance compliance of service-level agreement (SLA) and efficiency on the part of the enterprise.  This research has three major contributions. It presents guidance architecture of integrating AI agents into the Oracle Fusion Cloud workflows, suggests an integration strategy in balance between automation and compliance, and is empirically verified by the enterprise-level case studies that reveal actual productivity and efficiency improvements. The findings highlight the possibility of radical change by AI-powered automation in the systems currently used by cloud ERP systems, and open the prospects of uncovering further uses in predictive analytics, compliance and process orchestrator tasks
