What is RPA?
Robotic Process Automation (RPA), is the use of technology to automate a process or task that has a logical flow and does not require prior working experience or knowledge to complete. It is a non-invasive automation tool that can automate processes quickly with low technology requirements. Providing the right process or task is chosen, quick payback periods can be achieved (“ROI: 30-200%” McKinsey, March 2017).

Sales orders often have stipulations such as holding the price for a number of days. A robot can automatically do a price check and verify the current price against the sales order.
Customer Onboarding and Master Data Maintenance
As with suppliers in the procure-to-pay cycle, new customers must be vetted and onboarded and their data periodically validated and updated.
