Introduction


Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and GPT-4 have gained significant popularity with emergent capabilities. In this fourth session of the series, we will explore the potentials of GPT in SAP ecosystem, and discuss how SAP partners can leverage this powerful AI technology in combination with SAP technologies to accelerate their solution development processes, and create more intelligent solutions on SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP).

Here list the full blog post series of Exploring the potential of GPT in SAP ecosystem:









Exploring the potential of GPT in SAP ecosystem


Part 1 – GPT in SAP ecosystem

Part 2 – GPT as code assistance for SAP CAP and RAP Application development

Part 3 – Prompt Engineering for Advanced Text Processing on Customer Messages (this blog post)

Part 4 – Integrate with GPT Chat API for Advanced Text Processing

Part 5 – Integrate with GPT Embedding API for Customer Message Classification

In our previous blog about GPT as code assistance for SAP CAP and RAP Application development, we have created a basic Intelligent Ticketing Solution in SAP CAP with GPT. We will continue enhancing it by integrating with GPT through API for Advanced Text Processing on Customer Message.

From this blog post onward, we are going to implement the second solution requirement from SALifestyle under the two personas from the SAP partner, Christine the Consultant, and Daniel the Developer.


Apply advanced text analysis and processing techniques to analyze each inbound customer message. This includes sentiment analysis, title and summary summarization, entity extraction, and intent classification. These analyses will be used to determine the appropriate actions to be taken based on configurable rules.”


 

To fulfill this requirement, we will proceed with implementing the LLM Proxy Service in the architecture diagram, which integrates the Intelligent Ticketing Solution with GPT through APIs.


Before implementing LLM Proxy Service of Intelligent ticketing Solution for through GPT APIs, in this blog post, let us step back a bit to fulfill the same requirement through prompt engineering.

Prompt Engineering for Advanced Text Analysis and Processing on Customer Messages


To improve customer satisfaction with the products and services of SALifestyle, an inbound customer message needs to be analyzed and classified by an AI algorithm upon submission for appropriate action.

Specifically, the solution should generate a title and a short summary of the message.

It should also extract entities mentioned in the message, such as product, customer, and order etc, which can be used for further process automation.

Additionally, sentiment analysis should be performed to determine if the message is positive, negative, or neutral.

Furthermore, the solution should classify the message into different categories, such as technical issues requiring troubleshooting assistance or complaints needing immediate attention etc.



Prompt Deconstruct


Let’s recap the structure of a typical prompt with an example below. We’ll follow the exact structure in later’s prompt engineering for advanced text analysis and processing on customer message, such as text summarization, sentiment analysis, and entities extraction. Additionally, the target output of prompt should be in JSON, which can be processed with NodeJS in SAP CAP for integration through GPT’s API.



Prompt Engineering for Text Summarization


First, let us start with Text Summarization for Inbound Customer Message.

As an example, a customer has submitted a message expressing their dissatisfaction with receiving a broken popcorn maker during delivery.

A title is generated as Broken popcorn maker, along with a generated summary providing a concise overview of the issue.


Now, let’s have a look at the demo recording about how Christine and Daniel collaborate to achieve this through prompt engineering.



 

Here is the prompt of summarizing an inbound customer message into a title and a short summary as JSON output.


Here you have the prompts of text summarization showed in the video.

User Message Input text:
Everything was working fine one day I went to make a shot of coffee it stopped brewing after 3 seconds Then I tried the milk frother it stopped after 3 seconds again I took it back they fixed it under warranty but it’s happening again I don’t see this machine lasting more then 2 years to be honest I’m spewing I actually really like the machine It’s almost like it’s losing pressure somewhere, they wouldn’t tell my what the problem was when they fixed it..

2. Prompt Engineering for Sentiment Analysis


Similarly, understanding the sentiment expressed in a customer message can greatly assist the service agents at SALifestyle in prioritizing and addressing the customer's needs effectively, ultimately leading to an enhanced customer experience.


 

Let’s have a look at the demo recording about how Christine and Daniel analyze the sentiment of customer's text message through prompt engineering.



 

Here you have the prompts of sentiment analysis showed in the video.

3. Prompt Engineering for Entities Extraction


Additionally, extracting entities from a customer message, such as product, customer, and order etc. not only enable the service agents of SALifestyle to easily identify the relevant information but also enables further process automation, which can improve process efficiency and ultimately lead to higher customer satisfaction.


Let us have a look at the demo recording about how Christine and Daniel extract the entities from a customer's text message through prompt engineering.



Here you have the prompts of extracting entities showed in the video.















Use Case#1 Entities Extraction in list for Inbound Customer Message

4. Prompt Engineering for processing the Inbound Customer Message in one short


Finally, putting the pieces together into one comprehensive prompt is what SALifestyle ultimately aims for when processing inbound customer messages.


let’s have a look at the demo recording about how Christine and Daniel collaborate to achieve this through prompt engineering.



Here you have the prompts of processing customer message showed in the video.
