RPA
Robotic process automation (RPA) is a productivity tool that allows a user to configure one or more scripts (which some vendors refer to as “bots”) to activate specific keystrokes in an automated fashion. The result is that the bots can be used to mimic or emulate selected tasks (transaction steps) within an overall business or IT process. These may include manipulating data, passing data to and from different applications, triggering responses, or executing transactions. RPA uses a combination of user interface interaction and descriptor technologies. The scripts can overlay on one or more software applications.. -- gartner.com --
RPA for Everything else
Projects we are running for other departments in our company. Also Attended services
RPA Platform
Our RPA Buddies are using these platforms to process the workload.
RPA platform - UiPath
We are using the Community Edition and Cloud edition of UiPath. We are allowed to use one UA Robot and one Attended Robot and some other services.
RPA platform - MS Power Automate
We will be using the free Power Automate Desktop and platform to build our scripts. We will also checkout Work Queues and Copilot
RPA platform - SAIO
SAIO is our On-premise RPA platform. SAIO Server, SAIO Client and SAIO Agents. We will be using the workflow as well as creating C# (Fullcode) scripts.
RPA Workload Manager - Spider
All our robots will request work from the Spider. We don't schedule the robots. The Spider is taking care of that.
RPA platform - RoboCorp
The Free version allows 240 runtime minutes with a maxium of 2 processes. We will use small processes for this.
Operations Dashboard
We will create a custom operations dashboard for our robots. We use Tabler as template
