3. Scope of Automation
What should be automated ?
• Repetitive steps
• Time-consuming steps
• High-risk tasks
• Tasks with a low-quality yield
• Tasks involving multiple people
and multiple steps
What can be automated ?
• Well defined and rule-based
steps
• Logical
• An input to the task can be
diverted to the software system
• Input can be deciphered by
software systems with available
techniques
• The output system is accessible
• Benefits are more than the cost
4. What is RPA ?
Automating business operations with the help of software robots
The purpose of RPA is to transfer the process execution from humans to bots
Robotic are entities that mimic human action
Process is a sequence of steps that lead to meaningful activity
Automation is any process that is done by a robot without human
intervention
A computer software programmed to execute repetitive labour-intensive tasks
5. Why RPA ?
Robots will perform tasks with the same precision over and over again
Improving the quality of work being done and eliminating human error
Robots can interact with applications irrespective of the technologies on which the applications are built
Easy to adapt to change in process by changing few lines of code
RPA works using demonstrative steps
6. How RPA works ?
Identify the automation opportunities
Optimize the identified processes
Build a business case for RPA journey
Select a RPA vendor for implementation
Start initial RPA bots’ development
Expand our RPA scope and continue
building RPA bots
7. Pros & Cons of RPA
Pros
Reduces human efforts and thus the
related human errors too
Improves productivity by saving cost and
time
Suitable for the usage by non-technical
persons too
Easy to automate large number of
processes
Feature of tracking the defects for each
test cases
Cons
The bot is limited to the speed of the application
Even small changes made in the automation
application will need the robots to be reconfigured
8. Applications of RPA

•Claims Processing & Clearance•Insurance
•Bills of material
•Calculation of Sales
•Manufacturing &
Retail
9. Test Automation vs RPA
Test
Automation
RPA
Runs only on production
environment
Automates products as well as
services
Coding skills is not required
Goal is to reduce headcounts
through automation
Used in QA, production and
UAT environments
Automates products only
Coding skills is required
Goal is to reduce test time
through automation
11. Introduction to UiPath
UiPath is an RPA technology vendor who designs and delivers
software that helps automate businesses
Founded in the year 2005 by the Romanian entrepreneurs Daniel
Dines and Marius Tirca
With drag and drop functionality for all activities, it is the simplest
