Implementing RPA with Cognitive Automation and Analytics 專項課程

Regardless of the industry, business process automation is here to stay. Business processes are increasingly being automated through software automation. But how is software automation simplified and made accessible? The answer is Robotic Process Automation or RPA.

RPA lifecycle: Intrdocution, Discovery and Design is the first course of the Specialization on Implementing RPA with Cognitive Solutions and Analytics. In this course, you will be introduced to RPA and see how it is combined with cognitive solutions and analytics to enable organizations to adopt the model of a “Digital Workforce” and help them transform the nature of their work. You will also learn about the first two phases of the RPA implementation lifecycle: Discovery and Design. In the Discovery phase, you take a set of business processes and identify those that are suitable and beneficial for automation. In the Design phase, you create a plan for your RPA project. The learning will be reinforced through concept description and guided practice.

To adopt RPA, you begin with the Discovery and Design phases and proceed onto the Development and Testing phase.

RPA Lifecycle – Development and Testing is the second course of the Specialization on Implementing RPA with Cognitive Solutions and Analytics. In this course, you will learn how to develop and test bots. For this, you will use Automation Anywhere Enterprise Client (or AAE Client) to record, modify, and run tasks. AAE Client is a desktop application with an intuitive interface, that enables the creation of automated tasks with ease. It features ‘SMART’ Automation technology that quickly automates complex tasks without the need for any programming efforts. The learning will be reinforced through concept description, building bots, and guided practice.

Robotic Process Automation (or RPA) implementation is conducted over multiple critical phases. In the Discovery phase, you identify the business processes beneficial for automation. In the Design phase, you create an RPA plan for automating them. In the Development and Testing phase, you execute the RPA plan and develop bots, testing them thoroughly during development.

Next, you need to deploy the bots and set them up for routine monitoring. These activities are performed next in the implementation lifecycle: in the Deployment and Maintenance phases. You can deploy bots in various devices and also monitor their performance live via the Web Control Room. This is a web-based application, with comprehensive workload management, granular security controls, and an intuitive analytics dashboard. It is the one central interface from where you can create and manage users and roles, monitor connected and disconnected devices and schedule bot execution. As you begin this course, you will be introduced to the user interface of the Web Control Room. You will explore various panels and components in its Features Panel. You will also study some of the best practices and troubleshooting procedures that you can apply while using the Web Control Room during RPA Deployment and Maintenance. The learning will be reinforced through concept description, hands-on tasks, and guided practice.
