<p>This team-based project unit aims to prepare students to understand the role and function of Process Automation Experts who can play various roles such as Robotic Process Automation Developers and associated Business Analysts. AI-driven Robotic Process Automation, an important foundation in the journey of Digital Transformation, is being adopted by many organisations globally regardless of their size or domain. This has created an immense shortage in the supply of Process Automation experts. On successful completion of the course, a student will be equipped to: analyse a range of automation use cases; configure and develop Process Automation solutions using low/no code tools and platforms; and utilise device Process Automation Road mapping to accelerate the pace of Digital Transformation.</p>

<p>•Sprint 1 (2 weeks) Explore basic ideas of automation using Audio Visual Contents available with UiPath Academy and undertake a deep dive study of the AS-IS Process Flows of a Use Case - Accounts Payable Process Automation for Supplier Invoice to suggest the Automated TO-BE Process Flow.<br>
•Sprint 2 (2 weeks) Learn UiPath Control Flow, Variables, Arguments and UiPath Activities, Excel, PDF, Email Automation scenarios to use these concepts to be able to automate Industrial AS-IS Repetitive, Rule Based processes that may qualify for automation.<br>
•Sprint 3 (2 weeks) Learn UiPath Selectors to be able to automate the interaction of UiPath Bot with various Ui Elements on Portals and Web-based applications.<br>
•Sprint 4 (2 weeks) The goal of this Sprint is to enable the students to use the Orchestrator required for the configuration of Unattended Automation scenarios and handling Queues.<br>
•Sprint 5 (2 weeks) The goal is to enable the students to handle errors and exceptions during the automation of the suggested TO-BE Scenario.<br>
•Sprint 6 (2 weeks) Implement automation for scenarios involving reading and extraction of data from PDFs besides downloading and storing them in the folder in a specified path; automating sending and receiving of emails; to automate scenarios involving Excel File activities.</p>
