Overview of this book

SAP Intelligent Robotic Process Automation (RPA) enables businesses to automate repetitive work and integrate automation capabilities across SAP and non-SAP systems. This book provides end-to-end coverage of business process automation using SAP Intelligent RPA and shows how to build multiple SAP Intelligent RPA projects from start to finish. Some of these projects may build upon the work done in previous chapters to showcase the Agile development process in SAP Intelligent RPA. As you progress, you'll cover the SAP Intelligent RPA factory, Desktop Studio, Cloud Studio, and the Bot store. You'll also learn about the building blocks of the SAP Intelligent RPA solution and creating bots from initial application declaration to workflow design and deployment, along with making bots run in attended and unattended modes. You'll also learn about SAP Process Automation, the new SAP service that is going to replace the SAP Intelligent RPA service soon. Finally, we will discuss the migration path for your SAP Intelligent RPA projects to SAP Process Automation and showcase that the RPA development remains similar in both services. By the end of this RPA book, you’ll be able to create and manage complex bots that are capable of interacting with SAP and non-SAP systems.

Summary

Desktop Studio, Desktop Agent, and the browser extension are the three core components of SAP Intelligent RPA's on-premise setup. In this chapter, we began the installation process and reached nearly midway. We will conclude and verify the installation process in the following chapter. After that, you will have access to a complete SAP Intelligent RPA setup to start creating automations on-premise or in the cloud.

We touched upon nearly all the pieces of the SAP Intelligent RPA on-premise setup and have gained a deeper understanding of the components, such as Remote Tools for Visual Studio and the source code comparison tool KDiff3. While we have completed the initial installation, we will complete the process in the next chapter by registering the Desktop Agent with a tenant, configuring web browsers, and finally, verifying that the installation is complete. Before we conclude this chapter, let's see how well you understand the SAP Intelligent RPA installation...
