Time Critical Document Production

Objectives
  • Automate PDF document creation using standard business application features and a variable dispatch method
  • Utilise the preferred customer dispatch method to customise text for generating detailed emails and attaching PDFs

  • Assigned necessary permissions for the end-to-end process to the BOT
  • Sequenced and looped the script for repeated execution until completion
  • Included closure of logical application windows for accurate and efficient replay
  • Mapped and tested requirements for a standalone audit log
