In the traditional workflow automation technology tools, the action list of the automation task will be generated by the programmer, and the internal application program interface or special scripting language will be used as the interface with the background system. Robotic process automation monitors the work performed by the user in the graphical user interface (GUI) of the application software and automatically repeats the work directly on the GUI. This reduces barriers to product automation, so some software may not have APIs for this type of use.
Robotic process automation tools are technically similar to GUI testing tools. These tools will also automatically interact with the GUI, and the user will demonstrate the process, which is then implemented using exemplary programming. What differentiates RPA tools is that such systems allow data to be exchanged between different applications. For example, receiving an e-mail may include receiving a payment slip, retrieving the information therein, and entering it into a bookkeeping system.
Features
The goal of process robotics (RPA) software is to automate desktop-based business processes and workflows that meet certain applicability criteria, which in general are largely repetitive, Strict rules and results to define. Successful deployment of enterprise RPA brings the following benefits:
Greater operational efficiency: saves time and frees up workforce capabilities
· Enhanced accuracy, auditability, monitoring, tracking and control of business process execution
Scalable and flexible enhanced “virtual” workforce that can respond quickly to business needs
· A culture of collaboration and innovation that allows our business and IT people to work together.
Latest corporate news
In December 2020, Huawei released the AntRobot RPA 2.0 product for robotic process automation. AntRobot RPA was incubated by Huawei’s Global Technical Service (GTS).
In addition to telecommunications services, AntRobot RPA products are also used in Huawei’s manufacturing, supply chain, finance, retail, IT, HR and other departments, effectively supporting Huawei’s digital transformation.
