Enhancing Enterprise Automation: Our Partnership with SAP

At Automation Anywhere, we've always been on a quest to empower businesses through automation. Today, we’re excited to announce another advancement towards that goal and the next evolution of our ongoing partnership with SAP.

A new chapter

This new chapter builds upon the solid groundwork laid by our Process Discovery solution and SAP Signavio's process mining and modeling prowess. Together, these tools have been tackling the challenge of understanding and mapping disconnected processes, ultimately guiding businesses toward operational excellence.

The latest evolution of our collaboration introduces the integration of our Automation Anywhere A360 suite with SAP Build Process Automation. When combined, these solutions enable resilient automations, all-encompassing workflow management, and streamlined business decision-making. This goes beyond mere optimization; it reinforces governance and serves as a catalyst for consistent enhancements throughout your operational landscape.

Ready, set, automate

There are already many reasons to use SAP Build Process Automation and Automation Anywhere together to quickly develop and deploy automations both inside and outside your SAP environments. To make it even easier, we have now released pre-built automations available on the Automation Anywhere Bot Store to get you started, along with several reusable components available on the SAP Business Accelerator Hub that allow you to deploy and monitor Automation Anywhere automations from SAP Build Process Automation.

Multi-platform automation: While you can execute any automation on the Automation 360 Platform from SAP Build Process Automation, we’ve created a couple of quick starts to get you going. Salesforce Opportunity Stage Update and Salesforce Lead Creation are available on the Automation Anywhere Bot Store, among hundreds of other automations that can be deployed to your Automation 360 platform in seconds! The quick starts also have supporting SAP Build Process Automation projects, available as content packages on the SAP Build Store, to allow you to call the automations from your existing or new SBPA projects.

Swift integration: You’ll find a new SAP Build Process Automation command package on the Automation Anywhere Bot Store, which allows you to start and monitor SAP Build Process Automations directly from your Automation 360 platform. The command package addresses key use cases such as starting a process in SBPA, checking the status of the process instance, and getting the process context.

Our partnership with SAP represents not just a milestone but a gateway to a world of possibilities. Let's explore some of the potential use cases where the integrated solutions of Automation Anywhere Process and SAP Build Process Automation can revolutionize operations:
