Process Design Document – Calculate Client Security Hash 2

1. Introduction

1.1 Purpose of the documentThe Process Design Document describes the business processes chosen for automation using the UiPath Robotic Process Automation (RPA) technology.

This document describes the sequence of steps performed as part of the process, as well as the conditions and requirements prior to its automation. This design document serves as a base documentation for developers to collect the details required for robotic automation of the same business process.

1.2 ObjectivesThe process has been selected for RPA as part of the larger project initiative conducted within ACME Systems Inc. , the Finance and Accounting department.

The objective of this process automation is linked to the project business case and is mainly intended to:

The Design Document includes a brief, but comprehensive set of requirements for the process. Its structure is based on the input provided by the Subject Matter Expert (SME) in the process.

2.4 Exceptions handlingThe types of exceptions identifiable in the automation process can be classified according to the table below.

Area Known Unknown

Previously encountered situation. A possible scenario is defined, and clear actions and workarounds are provided for each case.

A situation never encountered before. It can be caused by external factors.

Business

Based on the above criteria, the table below should reflect all the known exceptions identified throughout the process and map the expected action the robot needs to take in each case.

Insert as many rows as required in the table, to capture all exceptions in a comprehensivel ist.

Step where exception is encountered

Exception # Parameters Action to be taken

name

If message for incorrect username or password exist

Send email to [email protected] “Hello, The username or the email is incorrect. Please check and restart

Thank you’’

Incorrect 1 email or Step # 1.2

password

No task of 2 type WI5 Step # 1.5 Stop process

exists

For any other unanticipated or unknown exceptions, the robot should send an email notification at [email protected] with the original email and error message screenshot attached.

A comprehensivel ist of all the errors, warnings, or notifications should be consolidated here with the description and action to be taken by the Robot in each case.

The errors identified in the automation process can be classified according to the table below.

Area Known Unknown

Previously encountered situation – action plan or workaround available.

A situation never encountered before, or may happened independent of the applications used in the process.

Technology

Based on the above criteria, the table below should reflect all the identifiable errors in the process, and map the expected action of the Robot in each case. Insert as many rows as required in the table, to capture all the errors in a comprehensive list.
