Technology validation proof surface

Hybrid Finance Runtime Simulator

Demonstrates how Sphere operates across ECC, S/4HANA, CFIN, Ariba, BlackLine, Treasury, and Databricks using representative adapter contracts, finance ontology projection, event activation, source authority, policy evaluation, evidence lineage, agent trace, and replay.

Validation posture: this is a representative simulation environment, not real client SAP, Entra, CyberArk, Databricks, BlackLine, or Treasury infrastructure. Production deployment swaps these adapter contracts to enterprise-approved systems, identity, vault, policy, and event services.

Replication Failure Scenario

ECC journal posted; CFIN replication delayed

Can Sphere detect that source finance activity exists while central finance is stale before close?

Before
94.2%
After
91.8%
Delay
5.5h
Decision

Escalate CFIN replication gap to finance data operations before controller certification.

Agent Runtime Trace

1
Signal complete

Signal Detection Agent - CFIN.ReplicationDelayed correlated with ECC.JournalPosted

2
Context complete

ERP Discovery Agent - Resolved ECC invoice, ECC journal, PO, supplier, Ariba approval, BlackLine close task

3
Authority complete

Source Authority Agent - Transaction truth is ECC; financial reporting truth should be CFIN; current view is degraded

4
Policy complete

Policy Validation Agent - R2R-CFIN-REPL-004 requires central finance replication before close certification

5
Evidence complete

Evidence Intelligence Agent - Evidence pack includes ECC BKPF/BSEG, CFIN replication status, Ariba approval, BlackLine task, Databricks risk feature

6
Decision complete

Hybrid Close Agent - Close readiness reduced from 94.2 to 91.8; escalation recommended

7
Action pending_human_approval

Action Drafting Agent - Draft ServiceNow-style replication incident and block close certification pending approval

8
Replay complete

Replay Integrity Agent - Replay package HYB-REPLAY-900184 captured signal, source records, policy, evidence, decision, and proposed action
