Welcome to another show here for UiPath.
This week it's a sap sapphire in Orlando.
Fantastic presence for us to show off our SAP technology.
And today I have the privilege of being with Nadia again to talk about RPA smart things,
right?
So you guys have been doing some great work with SAP technology.
Tell me a little bit about what we’re building fo our SAP customers.
Yeah, definitely.
So we provided a couple of things to help customers ramp up and get started.
And automating anything related to SAP.
So end-to-end business processes.
They could be appeal process AP process you name it.
So we provided SAP BAPI connectors so you can actually interact with SAP behind the
scenes at the API level.
We also have great training or how to automate with SAP.
So on the Academy actually if you go to you UiPath.com under Academy.
We have SAP specific specific training.
So best practices on how you want to automate SAP.
We think first thing everybody asked us, right?
How do you get started?
This is step one right go take the training.
If you're an SAP customer, then what's next right?
We have the free stuff.
Yeah, so we have that and we also have Go a Marketplace that has a lot of SAP connectors,
different custom activities.
So other things that help create quick and easy automations.
So with UiPath Go, so go.uipath.com I just did a quick search on SAP and I have a handful
of options to choose so it could be something specific to handling problems with you know,
freeze handler.
SAP can freeze.
What do you do in those cases?
You know, we have a One-Stop shop where you can download some code and you can put it
in here as well and extracting the SAP table with BAPI.
Great example of how to leverage BAPI.
Okay.
And then just to give you an idea of what SAP BAPI Connector looks like, I have a work
flow built out.
Scroll down for one second because this interesting I saw this the other day as I was exploring.
Go down a little bit little bit keep going.
So it's not only just UiPath.
I'd go there for UiPath.com, this is an open marketplace.
Tech Mahindra, other companies are building technology, and putting it into Go for you
guys.
Here's right.
So open market.
Proves our open architecture, which I always love to talk about that big difference in
our product versus other products.
That's sorry.
No, no.
Yeah great point.
So I have an automation that I built out It's around appeal process and I actually use the
SAP BAPI connectors.
So this is a simple process to create a PO, but it's actually using the SAP BAPI connectors.
So with that it actually adds the SAP BAPI connector to your UiPath Studio ribbon.
Okay.
So looking at the API not just kind of Really getting into the program itself.
Yes, exactly.
So a lot of customers prefer this because of the fact that it's interacting with the
application behind the screen.
So if they're actually interacting, you know transitioning from one SAP version to another,
if they're actually automating using the mapping connector the BAPI Wizard, their automations
are there's a lot less maintenance It's less likely to break.
So here I have the SAP BAPI Wizard.
Very easy to configure you give it your credentials you choose which BAPI you want to automate
and then you provide it the arguments and then it generates a workflow.
So the end results end up using looking just like a quick workflow.
So let me show you an example of that.
So it ends up looking like this, invoke BAPI PO_create.
It's just a quick snippet that includes the arguments that are to connect to the SAP BAPI.
So now all this is in Studio.
Yeah.
So drag-and-drop seeing everything that I want to do with my automation, very visual.
Yes, instead of having to go in and code this.
Exactly it's very low code, honestly, it's all this was created with drag-and-drop components.
So from if I'm talking about SAP customers, why wouldn't I be doing this?
What would you think is if I’m an SAP customer, we provide the training we provide the connectors
and you can go out to studio and download it and start actually seeing if this would
work in your business today.
Yeah, definitely people can go out and install, you know, the Enterprise Edition today and
get a hands-on experience and interact with SAP and any other systems that they may need
to actually, you know tie into their Automation and try it out.
Great, so this is all included technology, fantastic purpose, so if you’re an SAP customer,
if you’re here at SAP, definitely stop by the booth.
If not, follow us on social media.
Nadia, thank you very much.
Thanks everything you guys have been doing always great.
We're going to show some other cool demos for from SAP from the rest of the week So
hang tight.
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much.
Yeah.
