The operational bottleneck is manual data extraction from legacy ERP modules like SAP MM, FI, and CO, where sustainability analysts spend weeks downloading reports, reconciling formats, and manually entering data into spreadsheets. A custom agentic workflow automates this by deploying specialized data extraction agents that connect directly to ERP front-ends via secure browser automation (e.g., Playwright) or API wrappers where available. These agents are orchestrated to execute scheduled queries, handle authentication, and parse semi-structured reports, normalizing data into a unified schema. This eliminates the primary source of delay and error in the reporting chain, cutting data collection time from weeks to hours and freeing analysts for validation and analysis.
