AI in ERPNext

Frappe Flow: AI agents inside ERPNext

Frappe Flow is Frappe’s AI agent system that runs inside your site. It understands your DocTypes and respects each user’s permissions: ask in plain language and it finds, creates and updates records and sends emails, or runs on its own from an event or a schedule. Frappe is now merging it into the Frappe Framework itself.

In its October 2026 newsletter Frappe announced that Flow is being merged into the Frappe Framework; it is still early, with no stable release. Operion tests it and helps clients design safe agents for specific use cases before using them in production.

Configurable agents

Instructions, model and tools per agent, from the Desk or in code.

Tools on your data

Find, read, create and update records and run whitelisted methods.

Triggers

Run an agent on a document event or a schedule, such as a daily report email.

Knowledge base

Answers grounded in your files, URLs and DocTypes.

Human confirmation

Require user approval before any action, within existing permissions.

Full audit trail

Every conversation and run is stored for review.
