AI Agent: Master Data Governance Standards Advisor

You can use the Master Data Governance Standards agent to assess the compliance of the product master data with your company's established governance and standardization policies. It examines the item's operational and extended attributes, and validates the completeness and accuracy of the values ensuring conformance to master data standards and guidelines. It can provide answers to users' questions regarding these data governance policies for specific items.

The agent includes the following tools.

  1. Tool name: Item Operational Attribute Values Retriever
  • Tool Type: Business Object
  • Details: This tool retrieves the operational attribute values for a specific item. For an item number and organization code, this tool fetches all the basic, primary, and operational attributes associated with that item. The item operational attributes of include the inventory, order management, purchasing attributes, and so on.

        2. Tool Name: Item Extended Attribute Values Retriever

  • Tool Type: Business Object
  • Details: This tool retrieves the extended attribute values of an item. For a specific item identifier or inventory item identifier, this tool fetches all the user defined attribute values of the item. The user defined attributes refer to the item extensible flexfield attributes. Before using this tool, you must first use the Item Operational Attribute Values Retriever tool. For a specific item number and organization code, the Item Operational Attribute Values Retriever tool fetches the item ID or inventory item ID. Based on this ID, the Item Extended Attribute Values Retriever tool can retrieve the extended attribute values of the item.

       3. Tool Name: Product Master Data Governance Standards

  • Tool Type: Document
  • Details: You can attach your product master data governance standards document with this tool and publish the same. Based on the knowledge the agent has acquired from the document and the details it has retrieved from the business object tools, it provides answers to the user's questions.

The following feature benefits your business by the following:

  • Ensures data quality and completeness by validating product data against your organization’s data governance and standardization policies, helping ensure accuracy, completeness, and consistency across operational and extended attributes.
  • Improves operational efficiency by automating the review of item data, reducing the need for manual audits and enabling faster identification of data discrepancies or gaps.
  • Enhances decision-making confidence by ensuring master data integrity, teams can make business decisions based on reliable and standardized product information.
  • Supports regulatory and internal policy adherence by enforcing conformance to internal governance standards and external regulatory requirements, reducing risk of non-compliance.
  • Enables self-service data governance by empowering users to ask questions about item data governance directly within the system and receive real-time intelligent, contextual responses backed by documented standards.
  • Reduces time to market by automating the identification and diagnosis of possible data integrity issues, enabling faster remediation, and reducing data review bottlenecks in business processes.

Steps to Enable

You can use AI Agent Studio to use or copy a preconfigured agent template to create Agents for your business processes. To automatically add a suffix to all artifacts in your agent team, you can Copy Template instead of Use Template. When you copy a template, you're directly taken to the agent team canvas where you can edit the agent team settings, agents, tools, and topics. The Use Template option takes you through a step-by-step process for configuring each artifact in the agent team.

Tips And Considerations

If you created any AI agents in the applications before update 25C, we recommend that you replace your existing agent with an agent you create in Oracle AI Agent Studio for Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications. You can migrate the document tool you created for your existing agent to AI Agent Studio. Here’s how:

  1. Go to My Client Groups > Show More > Configure RAG Agents.
  2. Click the Tools tab, then click Migrate action for your tool.
  3. Enter a unique name and tool code, and select the relevant family and product for your agent. You’ll use the tool name to locate your tool in AI Agent Studio.
  4. Click OK.

After your tool is migrated, create a new agent in AI Agent Studio using the appropriate template, add your migrated tool, and publish your agent. Then, create a new guided journey and add an agent task of the type Workflow Agent for the new agent you just created in AI Agent Studio. Next, update the guided journeys with the new journey code where you’ve enabled your previous agent so that the journeys use the new agent. After you have tested and verified your new agent, you can use the Delete action in Configure RAG Agents to remove the original agent.

The Product Regulatory and Compliance Advisor template and the Product Master Data Governance Standards Advisor template use the same tools. If you use the Copy Template option, make sure to use different suffixes for the Agent Team Suffix name so that when the tools are copied, they are created with unique suffixes respectively. You can add or remove the tools based on your requirements. You may modify the prompt suitably.

Access Requirements

To access the Oracle AI Agent Studio for Fusion Applications and manage SCM AI agents, users must be assigned a configured job role that contains these duty roles:

  • SCM Intelligent Agent Management Duty (ORA_RCS_SCM_AI_AGENT_MANAGEMENT_DUTY and ORA_RCS_SCM_AI_AGENT_MANAGEMENT_DUTY_HCM – both duty role codes are required)
  • Fai Genai Agent SCM Administrator Duty (ORA_DR_FAI_GENERATIVE_AI_AGENT_SCM_ADMINISTRATOR_DUTY)

In the Security Console, filter by Roles and Privileges to find the SCM Intelligent Agent Management Duty role. Filter by Roles and Permission Groups to find the Fai Genai Agent SCM Administrator Duty role. 

To interact with AI agents in product pages, users must be assigned a configured job role that contains this duty role:

  • Fai Genai Agent Runtime Duty (ORA_DR_FAI_GENERATIVE_AI_AGENT_RUNTIME_DUTY) 

In the Security Console, filter by Roles and Permission Groups to find this duty role. 

To allow users to interact with agents, you must also enable permission groups in the Security Console on those users’ configured job roles that contain the Fai Genai Agent Runtime Duty role. You can enable permission groups when you manage the basic information of your configured job roles. 

Users’ configured job roles must also contain privileges that allow access to the pages where AI agents are enabled.
