Background of SAP Automation Pilot
SAP Automation Pilot is a cloud-based platform designed to help businesses automate their operations and optimize their core SAP processes.
It’s a powerful solution that enables organisations to reduce manual labor and free-up resources for more valuable tasks. It provides business process automation in areas such as sales order entry, procurement, analytics, and more.
The Automation Pilot platform provides users with a comprehensive set of pre-built cloud-based automation services covering all areas of SAP from procurement to financials.
Automation services can be deployed in a fraction of the time, and with greatly reduced cost, that manual operations usually require. Not only do services increase accuracy and enable faster decisions due to increased automation, but the use of cloud-based solutions improves business visibility and agility, helping to reduce user error and eliminate manual labour from traditionally complex processes.
The Automation Pilot platform also provides analytics which provide a deeper understanding of key business metrics such as customer service levels, inventory availability, order fulfilment times, and other performance indicators. By leveraging the automated analytics included with the solution businesses are able to make well-informed decisions quicker, thereby improving their ability to identify and address performance gaps, and helping to ensure that their operations and customer service levels stay competitive.
SAP Automation Pilot is available as a service on SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). You must have an active SAP BTP account as a prerequisite for using Automation Pilot. The primary goal of the Automation Pilot service is to simplify the operational effort behind cloud solutions on SAP BTP. It gives you an access to a wide variety of provided fully automated procedures like Database and Application Lifecycle Management, Monitoring, HTTP Requests, Bash Scripting and more. |
