Guiding Strategy
GoldFinch is evolving from traditional ERP into an Agentic ERP + Accounting platform on Salesforce.
Our approach is simple:
AI agents are embedded directly inside ERP workflows—helping businesses make and execute decisions in real time.
This is not AI as a separate tool.
This is AI operating inside your system of record.
Phase 1: Foundation
Make AI usable, visible, and trusted
1. Core AI Capabilities — “AI Reads + AI Answers”
Agentforce AI Assistant (Chatbot)
Empower users to ask natural-language questions and receive real-time, read-only answers from GoldFinch ERP, including:
- Inventory availability
- Order status
- Customer balances

AI Invoice Capture (OCR)
Automatically extract invoice data from vendor invoices to reduce manual data entry, improve accuracy, and accelerate accounts payable processing.

2. Standardized ERP Action Layer
GoldFinch introduces a prebuilt ERP Action Library for AI agents.
These actions allow AI to interact directly with ERP data and processes.
Core Action Library
Inventory
- Get Item Availability
- Get Inventory Snapshot
- Allocate Inventory
Finance
- Get Customer Balance
- Place Customer on Credit Hold
Orders
- Find Sales Order
- Get Sales Order Summary
Procurement
- Create Purchase Order
- Create Purchase Invoice (from OCR)
3. GFAI Package Strategy
AI capabilities are delivered through a dedicated GoldFinch AI (GFAI) package:
- Decoupled from core ERP releases
- Faster innovation cycles
- Easier demos and upgrades
AI evolves faster than ERP—our architecture reflects that.
Phase 2: Assisted Intelligence
AI recommends, humans decide
1. Decision Agents
GoldFinch introduces Decision Agents that analyze ERP data and recommend actions.
Inventory Decision Agent
- Suggests purchase orders
- Explains:
- Demand trends
- Lead times
- Projected stockout dates
AR Collections Agent
- Prioritizes collections activities
- Recommends:
- Follow-up actions
- Credit hold decisions
Order Allocation Agent
- Recommends optimal allocation across warehouses
- Considers:
- Availability
- Priority
- Operational constraints
2. Context-Aware Reasoning Layer
Each agent operates with structured ERP context.
Agents:
- Pull real-time Salesforce + ERP data
- Apply business rules and logic
- Use AI to generate insights and explanations
Output includes:
- Decision
- Explanation
- Recommended action
Transparency builds trust and drives adoption.
3. Customer Portal + AI (Experience Cloud)
Extend ERP capabilities directly to customers.
Customers can:
- Check inventory availability
- View orders and transactions
- Review AR balances
- Ask questions via AI chatbot
Next Enhancements
- Place orders via chat
- Check delivery status
- Self-service account insights
Deliver real-time, AI-powered customer engagement while reducing support load.
Phase 3: Autonomous Agents
AI begins executing decisions
1. Controlled Autonomy
AI executes actions within defined rules and thresholds.
Examples:
- Auto-create purchase orders below the defined limits
- Auto-send AR reminders
- Auto-allocate inventory for standard orders
Autonomy is configurable, governed, and auditable.
2. Event-Driven Agents
Agents are triggered automatically by business events:
- Inventory drops below threshold → trigger replenishment
- Invoice overdue → trigger collections
- Order created → trigger allocation
AI works proactively—not just on demand.
3. Multi-Step Agent Workflows
Agents orchestrate end-to-end processes:
Example workflow:
Order → Allocation → Shipment → Invoice
Move from task automation to full process orchestration.
Phase 4: Adaptive Enterprise
A self-optimizing ERP system
1. Continuous Learning Loops
System continuously improves based on outcomes:
- Forecast accuracy
- Supplier performance
- Fulfillment efficiency
Adjust automatically:
- Reorder points
- Safety stock
- Procurement strategies
2. Multi-Agent Collaboration
Specialized agents work together:
- Demand Agent
- Supply Agent
- Finance Agent
Coordinated decision-making across the enterprise.
3. Predictive + Prescriptive Intelligence
Move beyond reporting to forward-looking guidance:
- “You will stock out in 12 days”
- “Increase order quantity by 15% based on trends”
