What can be automated

Tasks that always follow the same pattern are well suited: an enquiry comes in via a form, is added to the CRM, gets a reply and ends up as a task for the sales team. Or receipts arrive by email, are read and passed on to accounting. Once set up, workflows like these run without anyone stepping in.

With AI, tasks that need understanding can now be automated too, such as sorting emails by topic, reading data from invoices or suggesting replies. For legacy programs without an interface, there are software robots that make entries just as a person at the screen would.

How to prepare your request

Write down one workflow step by step: what triggers it, which programs are involved, who makes which decision and what the end result should be. Note how often it comes up and how much time it takes. This lets the provider estimate whether and how quickly the automation will pay for itself.

Have ready which programs you use in which version and whether you have administrator access. For cloud software, it helps to state your plan, because some interfaces are only available on higher plans.

Comparing quotes

Ask which platform the automation will run on and what running costs this involves, for example licences based on the number of runs. Find out where the data is processed and whether the platform can be operated in the EU.

It is important to know what happens when something goes wrong: is there an error alert, who is notified and who fixes the problem? Make sure you will receive documentation of the workflows that have been set up, along with all logins.

Questions and answers

Automation: frequently asked questions

When is automation worthwhile?

As a rule of thumb: if a task comes up regularly and runs in a similar way each time, the setup often pays for itself within a few months. Weigh the hours saved against setup and running costs. The provider can give you a first estimate.

Do I need to buy new software for this?

Usually not. Many automations connect the programs you already have. In addition, there is normally a platform on which the workflows run, or a small custom program. Which option fits depends on your software and the volume.

What is the difference between automation and RPA?

With classic automation, programs talk to each other directly through interfaces. RPA is used when there is no interface: a software robot then operates the program's user interface. This is flexible but more prone to failure when the interface changes.
