Hello, everyone, I’m Coke.
After reading this article, I would like to congratulate you first, because I will lead you into a brand-new field, which will greatly facilitate your daily work and life.
Ever heard of RPA? Maybe you think this is a strange term, but it may change your work style and improve your work efficiency! Even if you are a little white who knows nothing. Next, I will discuss RPA technology, what it is, how it works, and what changes it can bring us.
Tap the key point: Xiaobai who knows nothing can also play RPA.
Official introduction: RPA is called Robotic Process Automation, also known as "Robotic Process Automation". It is an automation technology based on software, which can simulate the behavior of human operating computers and complete some repetitive and regular work.
Speak human words:RPA is to use software instead of human beings to do some tedious work.
This is easy to understand. I believe that everyone will encounter some repetitive, tedious and even boring jobs in their work or life.
For example: data entry, file arrangement, email reply and so on. These tasks often require a lot of time and energy, which are not only inefficient, but also prone to mistakes.
Would you be very excited if there was a way for machines to do these jobs for you? This is the RPA to be introduced today.
PS: [Key Wizard] I wonder if you have heard of this software? It can be understood as a product of RPA.
After reading the above explanation, we can define what RPA can do like this:Any task on the computer that needs our manual operation can be completed with RPA.
So for an ordinary person, we can use it like this:
If your daily work involves a lot of repetitive work, such as data entry, file processing or mail management, RPA can help you. You can use RPA tools to complete these tasks automatically, thus reducing your workload and putting your time and energy into more valuable tasks.
For example, you can set up an RPA robot to deal with spam in your inbox, and fully automate the processes of retrieving emails, replying to emails, opening and closing attachments, etc.
With RPA, you can make your work more efficient, because it can automatically complete a lot of work, thus reducing the possibility of human error. This can save a lot of time and cost for some jobs.
For example, in daily data input tasks, RPA can be used to realize fully automatic data processing, such as reading data forms with OCR technology and filling in forms automatically, so that you can spend more time on more valuable tasks.
RPA can help you improve or simplify your daily business processes.
For example, in human resource management, RPA technology can automatically handle some routine work in the recruitment process, such as resume screening, data sorting and interview invitation, which greatly saves the time and cost of manual processing.
For some things that need to be dealt with repeatedly in daily work or personal life, RPA can make it easier for you to complete these tasks.
For example, in the real estate field, RPA can help manage house leasing, house sale and customer relationship, thus making these important and repetitive tasks more efficient and reliable.
Of course, this is just a part of what RPA can do. Look at the definition.Any task on the computer that needs our manual operation can be completed with RPA.So there are many things that can be done and we need to dig.
4. Working principle of RPA
Here I’m going to talk about the working principle of RPA, as long as everyone knows it, and we can use RPA well without going into every technology used in it.
The automated process provided by RPA technology is based on predefined rules and scripts. These rules and scripts are used to control which tasks the robot performs, how to perform the tasks, and the conditions for performing the tasks.
RPA technology makes use of many advanced access technologies, including screen capture, and simulating human operations using devices such as keyboards and mice. They can capture the user interface on the computer and simulate human conversation.
RPA technology uses machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms to automatically identify users’ behaviors, processing processes and operational processes. These algorithms can automatically learn and optimize the task flow, and adapt to the changes of environment and data.
RPA technology can automatically extract relevant data from various applications and data sources, and classify and sort them properly. These data can include natural language text, semi-structured and structured data.
RPA technology can automatically perform tasks and automatically adjust task execution strategies. Policy management includes rule design, policy optimization and task scheduling.
In a word, the underlying principle of RPA technology involves many related technologies and algorithms, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, advanced access technology and so on. These technologies combine automatic processing with automatic decision-making, and can help us improve work efficiency and productivity.
RPA can complete a lot of repetitive work in a short time, thus improving work efficiency and reducing labor costs.
RPA can accurately complete tasks according to preset rules and conditions, and avoid the influence of human factors on tasks.
RPA can work 24 hours a day to avoid the impact of manpower shortage or fatigue on work efficiency.
RPA can be expanded and optimized according to actual requirements to meet the automation requirements of different scenarios.
RPA can record the process and results of task execution, which is convenient for subsequent analysis and tracking.
6. Summary
Generally speaking, RPA is an automation technology that allows machines to replace humans to complete tedious work, which can improve work efficiency, reduce costs and reduce error rates, and is suitable for various work scenarios.
In the future work and life, RPA is expected to become an increasingly common automation technology, which will create more time and energy for human beings and make us more focused on innovation and creative work.
Therefore, the sooner we learn to use RPA, the more we can run ahead.
Seeing this, do you want to experience RPA technology immediately? Don’t worry, we will introduce it in the next article.
