Course Overview

Revolutionize your finance and accounting processes by unleashing the power of digital transformation!

As the finance and accounting department often deals with repetitive and rule-based tasks, RPA presents an ideal solution for increasing efficiency.

RPA is a software automation tool that empowers organizations to automate routine tasks, such as data extraction and cleaning, through existing user interfaces. By implementing RPA, you can streamline processes ranging from accessing email and systems to performing calculations, generating reports, and verifying files. However, to embark on a successful RPA initiative, it's crucial to understand the impact of automation, overcome associated challenges, and grasp key concepts like bots, bot managers, and workflow design.

In this webinar, Lynn Fountain provides a comprehensive understanding of RPA within the context of finance and accounting. From the initial implementation phases to exploring specific accounting and finance functions ideally suited for RPA, you'll gain the knowledge needed to effectively leverage automation in your organization.

Major Topics Covered

  • Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) components and their role in digital transformation.
  • Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and its significance in digital transformation.
  • Automation's impact on business processes and efficiency.
  • RPA implementation and its application in streamlining tasks.
  • Strategies for successful RPA implementation, including identifying automation candidates and operating models.

Join this Part 1 of the Digital Transformation Series for an exciting journey through the world of digital transformation and RPA, and unlock the potential to revolutionize your finance and accounting processes.
