ROBOTIC PROCESS AUTOMATION
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is software that runs on a computer or virtual machine and
imitates human actions. With RPA, people can create robots that can learn, copy and perform
tasks that follow specific rules. The purpose of RPA is to move certain jobs from humans to robots.
These robots follow a series of commands based on business rules. RPA is often used for things like
payroll processing, call center tasks and handling credit card applications.
