Part 4 of 5
Capabilities 24–30
Automation can involve software workflows, APIs, scheduled jobs and other appropriate technologies. Where existing systems expose APIs, direct integrations may provide a more maintainable solution. Custom automation can be developed when standard automation tools cannot adequately support the required workflow.
Some processes require actions immediately after a business event. Event-driven automation can respond to:
This can reduce delays between connected business processes.
Other workflows can run on predefined schedules. Examples include:
Automation systems can include dashboards that provide visibility into workflow activity. Dashboards can show:
Not every process should be completely automatic. Automation can identify exceptions and route them to employees for review. Examples include:
This allows automation and human decision-making to work together.
Automation depends on reliable information exchange. Data integration can connect:
Data mapping and validation help maintain consistency between systems.
Automation systems may process sensitive business and customer information. Security considerations can include:
