SAP Robotics Process Automation(RPA)

RPA (robotic process automation) for SAP is very diverse by nature; there are countless opportunities for what you can automate.

SAP process automation it’s important to distinguish between the automated processes that SAP facilitates and the automated processes that you need an RPA tool for. SAP in itself allows you to automate an array of processes – that’s actually a core part of the product. 

SAP Intelligent RPA is a single unified Cloud-based solution. It includes “on-premise” automation tools as well. This is an end-to-end solution to automate steps.

Ideas for automation in SAP

The majority of processes that make great candidates for automation are related to data migration – reading data, processing data and transferring it to somewhere new.

While some data-related tasks are rather complex and require human intelligence, creativity and critical thinking, others are prone to error when performed by humans. These are often also the most repetitive, tedious, and boring tasks, which means people are usually more than happy to let robots perform them.

Robots have the advantage that they never get tired and don’t suffer from information overload, which can be an advantage particularly when automating SAP, because SAP software is often complex and can be difficult to navigate in a fast and efficient manner. Robots see only what they’re asked to see, such as which data to pull, which fields to fill, and which buttons to press.

General RPA Use Cases–

  • Scanning forms
  • Copying data
  • Data entry
  • Legacy application integration
  • Content migration
  • Screen scraping
  • Form filling

Industry specific RPA use cases-

  • Invoice management (finance)
  • Data extraction and categorization (finance)
  • Employee onboarding (HR)
  • Personnel administration (HR)
  • Inventory/stock management (warehouse management)

What to look for in an SAP RPA tool

  • Intuitive and visual language rather than code, making setup fast and easy. No-code also means everyone in the organization – from business to technology experts – can understand the flows.
  • Cross-technology functionality, allowing you to automate any businesses transaction – from inside the SAP application to legacy systems. Cross-technology functionality also allows you to automate across SAP’s desktop and web applications.
  • Incorporates several technologies within the tool, for example UI recording, OCR and self-healing, giving you a range of options for automating your specific needs.

What can you achieve with SAP RPA?

  • Automate anything: SAP already allows you to automate many processes, but with an RPA tool, you are given the chance to fully customize your SAP system with a range of additional automation options.
  • Increased productivity: By eliminating repetitive, tedious, error-prone tasks, individuals can focus and spend more time on higher-value tasks.
  • Reduced costs: With RPA you can save time and resources, meaning costs are automatically reduced.

SAP RPA SOFTWARE: ROBOTIC PROCESS AUTOMATION TOOLS FOR YOUR ERP

WHAT IS SAP ROBOTICS?

Robotics help you complete routine tasks with technology. Computers “learn” how you use your ERP, then repeat that approach independently.

SAP automation centers around several key technologies. Optical character recognition software, data matching tools, and machine-learning algorithms all make it possible to complete rule-based processes with minimal effort. They also allow computers to complete routine tasks faster and more accurately

Of course, there are some instances where you’ll need to step in. For instance, the very first time a program encounters a new type of data, you’ll need to let it know what that data is. But many RPA solutions are capable of remembering your input for similar purposes in the future.

SAP AUTOMATION MADE EASY

Our solutions can integrate with any SAP software suite, including Finance & Accounting, Sales & Distribution, and Materials Management. They can even help you with human capital management.

This software collects information from your paper documents, then imports that information into SAP. You don’t need to manually enter your data. And, because you can trust that the information is entered properly the first time around, you don’t have to worry about correcting errors in the future.

Once your data is collected and saved, it can be used to complete corresponding tasks. For instance,RPA software can process invoices, create sales orders, and generate customer invoices – and it can often do so without user input.  Working behind the scenes, it can compare multiple data fields, complete forms, note exceptions for review, and even send documents to other users for approval. It’s a much faster – and much more efficient – way to use SAP.

THE BENEFITS OF ROBOTIC PROCESS AUTOMATION FOR SAP

Used strategically, SAP process automation can help you achieve:

  • Faster procure-to-pay and order-to-cash cycles
  • Lower operating costs
  • Higher straight-through processing rates
  • Increased accuracy

RPA tools also allow you to keep up with increasing workloads – without hiring additional SAP data entry associates or transaction processors. As your company grows, you can delegate more and more work to your robots. Meanwhile, your current employees can focus on other important initiatives, with greater freedom and flexibility to improve your business.

FAST, SIMPLE INTEGRATION WITH YOUR ERP

Our process automation tools can integrate with SAP enterprise software right out of the box. And, our software is designed to exceed all of SAP’s RPA security recommendations. Your company’s data is always protected.
