RPA Automate business tasks with robotic process automation
RPA Automation
With robotic process automation (RPA), you can use bots to quickly and cost- effectively automate routine tasks like dealing with data access and movement within application user interfaces.
What is robotic process automation?
Robot-assisted process automation (RPA) is the use of software bots to automate highly repetitive routine tasks normally performed by knowledge workers.
Why automate repetitive tasks?
Automating repetitive tasks saves time and money. Process automation robots add value to an automation platform by completing tasks faster, enabling employees to do more valuable work.
For instance, bots can perform tasks like logging into one application, moving to a specific screen to copy data and then logging into a second application to paste that data into relevant fields. Finally, the bot logs off both applications to complete the activity. RPA bots can help you to:
Free employees to focus on higher value work
- Allow employees to focus on higher value work
- Reduce human errors, while gaining consistency and efficiency by automating repetitive tasks
- Increase operational speed and scalability by using bots to complete tasks within seconds
- Decrease development costs by enabling business users to create bots with limited IT assistance
