Expanding the use of rpa in erp

Abhinav Sabharwal discusses the benefits of using RPA to automate low-value ERP tasks like invoicing and accounting, which can improve efficiency without the need for costly system replacements. While RPA can aid in modernization efforts, it should not be used to support outdated systems; organizations must evaluate their ERP systems' effectiveness. RPA is seen as a valuable tool for enhancing business processes, rather than merely extending the life of legacy technology.
![GOOD CANDIDATES FOR RPA
• There are low-value tasks that you can
build bots to [handle and] extract hours,"
Invoicing, accounting and order
processing tasks are good candidates for
automation, because it can free humans
from hours of mundane, repetitive work.
• Using RPA to automate these ERP-related
tasks allows organizations to reap the
benefits of modernization without having
to replace the system -- a complex, costly
and time-consuming undertaking.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/expandingtheuseofrpainerp-200909105021/85/Expanding-the-use-of-rpa-in-erp-2-320.jpg)

• RPA can also help organizations move
forward with their agility and digitization
efforts while contending with the legacy
elements that come with ERP.
• Modernizing the processes adds agility that,
without RPA, would either be almost
impossible to achieve or would require a
major overhaul of the ERP itself.
• “RPA can be a bridge to a future state. "[It]
can help be that interim solution that's more
economical and can address the near term](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/expandingtheuseofrpainerp-200909105021/85/Expanding-the-use-of-rpa-in-erp-3-320.jpg)

- 4. NOT EASY TASK • IT teams cannot easily integrate all new applications with ERPs as those systems age, which may create layers of mundane work for human workers. • It's that kind of repetitive, tedious work that workers are tasked to do but is very inefficient where RPA is very useful. • RPA can easily go from application to application or system to system, replicating data entry and replicating the thinking of the two systems, and because it's a bot it won't make a mistake and it will always do what it's programmed to do
- 5. NO REPLACEMENT FOR NEEDED UPGRADE • Although RPA can improve processes that involve the ERP system and can add speed to enterprise architecture, experts cautioned against using the automation technology to prolong a legacy system that no longer serves the organization. • "RPA is a way for companies to help move forward with their digital transformation goals and to do that in a cost-effective manner
- 6. (Not) A Way To Patch Holes • We at School Of RPA do not see RPA as a way to patch holes in an old ERP or to extend its life beyond what's beneficial to the company. • We sees RPA as a valuable tool for generating business value, but not a tool for IT to use to support outdated tech, organizations should continually evaluate whether their ERP system continues to serve business needs or whether it's holding them back before they move forward with an RPA
- 7. Don't Want To Institutionalize A Legacy System • You don't want to institutionalize a legacy system with RPA if it's better to upgrade it. That's what the CIO should be doing, evaluating that ERP and asking if it's worth taking that tactical efficiency now if there's no roadmap to modernize it," Le Clair said. "But if there's no need to upgrade the ERP and back-office processes because it's not going to make the company any more competitive, then RPA is a very useful tool there.
