SAP Build Process Automation

Lessons in this topic

• BTP Build Process Automation Part 1: Workflows, Forms, Decisions and BotsSAP Build Process Automation combines workflow, forms, decision tables and robotic process automation in one low-code tool. Learn its artifacts (processes, forms, decisions, automations, actions), triggers, the task center/My Inbox for approvers, and monitoring — and when to use it versus SAP workflows in S/4HANA.
• BTP Build Process Automation Part 2: Build Your First Approval WorkflowBuild an approval process step by step: a trigger form for the request, an approval form with approve/reject outcomes, a condition on the decision, notification to the requester, release and deploy, and testing the full cycle in the inbox.
• BTP Build Process Automation Part 3: Forms, Conditions and Decision TablesModel business rules cleanly: form design with validations, conditions for simple branching, decision tables for rules like approval thresholds and approver determination, inputs/outputs, and keeping rules maintainable by business experts.
• BTP Build Process Automation Part 4: Actions and API IntegrationIntegrate processes with systems: action projects built from API specifications (e.g. S/4 OData APIs from Business Accelerator Hub), destinations with the right properties, mapping process data to action inputs, handling errors and timeouts, and triggering processes via API.
• BTP Build Process Automation Part 5: Desktop Automation and RPAAutomate UI-based tasks with bots: the desktop agent, application capture (screens, elements), automation steps, attended vs unattended runs, error handling and when RPA is justified versus APIs.
• BTP Build Process Automation Part 6: Release, Deploy, Task Center and MonitoringRun processes in production: versions and releases, deployment to environments, variables per environment, approvers working in My Inbox/task center, monitoring process instances, handling errors and stuck instances, and transports.
• BTP Build Process Automation Part 7: Architecture, Process Visibility and GovernanceArchitect process automation at scale: positioning versus S/4 flexible workflow and Integration Suite, event- and API-triggered processes, process visibility dashboards and KPIs, security of actions and bots, and governance (templates, reviews, ownership).

Interview questions covered
