machines, or applications.
Q.2: What are the main applications of
RPA?
• Data Entry
• Data Migration
• Data Extraction
• Invoice processing or bill creation
• Report Generation
• Price Comparison
• Onboarding and maintaining user data
• Information Validation
• Barcode Scanning
Q.3: What are the characteristics of
RPA?
RPA has the following characteristics:
• Code-Free
• User-Friendly
• Non-Disruptive
• Error-Free
Q.4: List down some popular RPA tools?
Some of the popular RPA tools are:
• UiPath
• Blue Prism
• Automation Anywhere
• WorkFusion
• OpenSpan
Q.5: What are the different types of RPA
tools?
We can divide RPA tools into the following categories:
• Excel Automation and Macros
• Programmable Solution Bots
• Self-Learning Tools
• Cognitive Automation Bots
Q.6: What do you understand by RPA
Bots?
RPA Bots (or Robots) are the virtual bots. They are created with
the Bot creator tools such as Blue Prism, UiPath or Automation
Anywhere, etc.
