In today’s blog, we talk about how Query Manager can be leveraged in tandem with a fully-connected Robotic Process Automation framework called VIP.
Customers love working with Query Manager, the leading SAP certified reporting solution, which provides access to all of their key Human Resources, Payroll and configuration data live inside SAP. Customers also love the fact that the Query Manager solution is flexible and that it can be used to complement other solutions, like in our blog about using your Query Manager data live in Microsoft Excel.
Query Manager can be leveraged in tandem with a fully-connected Automation framework called VIP. VIP creates high-performance bots to do the heavy lifting to organize your information and automate processes across your business.
Every organization has termination, separation or leavers reporting. Query Manager is delivered with several of these reports, each often containing a list of people who are departing the organization, often including their reasons for leaving, their last working day etc. See sample below of report output created from a Query Manager termination report.
The list of leavers is often used a reference to facilitate some additional subsequent actions, including the samples below.
Termination Subsequent Actions
Some of these activities can be kicked off within SAP itself, via a user exit or workflow or an external interface, however often these are processes that require someone to take external subsequent action. These type of subsequent activities are ideal candidates for an intelligent bot to do for you.
Curiosity Software’s VIP bot can be used to quickly design and build interactions between interfaces, or to solve complex problems that would normally require advanced programming skills. Leveraging this, customers can grab components and chain them together for automation. See sample below:
Using a bot “worker” to perform many of the laborious tasks frees up company time and resources, while saving money, and ensures that the appropriate activities are completed.
Please watch the video here to see how VIP works behind the scenes taking the data provided by the Query Manager report to initiate different actions following the process pictured above, including:
Confirm synchronization
Think about all of the potential business cases this could be leveraged in, including the two HCM samples below:
The opportunities for leveraging bots are endless, and the bot can also interface with numerous applications including Twitter, Sharepoint, Google Docs, Salesforce, Facebook, Slack, Email and LinkedIn).
