Build number: 21.2.1

Features

Localization in Spanish and Portuguese: Starting today our Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese speaking customers can benefit from a localized experience in Automation Hub. This allows them to access all the platform's content and resources in either English, Japanese, German, French, Spanish, or Brazilian Portuguese. The option to switch the language preference is available under the 3 dotted resources icon.

Open API

The Open API option is now enriched with the following calls:

• The POST Process Mining Idea: enables users to push activities worth automating discovered using the Process Mining solutions in the automation pipeline from Automation Hub. This way we encourage users to maintain a single repository for all their automation ideas. A minimum set of data is required to be sent in the API call, enabling the creation of a Process Mining Idea and the calculation of KPIs like the Automation Potential % and the Estimated benefits. For details please check this page from our Swagger collection. As a consequence of this API call, the Process Mining Submitter collaborator role is now available when accessing Admin Console > Manage Users > User Roles > Collaborator Roles. A new Idea type "Process Mining" is displayed in the platform for the ideas created via this API call.
• The POST Media file: enables users to upload media files to the automation profiles. For details please check this page from our Swagger collection.

Improvements

• Automation Profile page > Detailed Assessment > Process Volumetry > Activity Volume Average: a new drop-down list allowing the user with edit rights to select whether the Activity Volume Average information reflects the volumes at the level of the company or per a single employee is made available. Furthermore, the following three new indicators are computed and displayed in the Automation Profile page view and edit mode:

  • Est. Benefit per employee (Hours)
  • Est. Benefit per employee (FTEs)
  • Est. Benefit per employee (currency)

• To expose the information available in the Workspace > Automation Pipeline in an aggregated way the following columns from the Detailed Assessment, are now made available in the Automation Pipeline view and can also be exported in the CSV file.

  • Total Processing Time
  • Total Rework Time
  • Total Review/Audit Time
  • Total Time Needed to Perform the Work
  • Applications Used
  • Number of Employees
  • Est. Benefit per employee (Hours)
  • Est. Benefit per employee (FTEs)
  • Est. Benefit per employee (currency)
• Workspace > Automation Pipeline: the Potential Benefit column is displaying the unit of measure, hours, next to the value.
• The POST CoE Automation Idea is enhanced in order to allow users to add customized questions to the request body. For details please check this page from our Swagger collection.
• Dashboards > Planning Report > Average of all Automations: a tooltip is added in order to clarify what data is taken into consideration for the average calculation.
• Automation Profile page > Detailed Assessment > Process Volumetry > Cost/Year for Process AS IS: the formula used to compute the FTEs value includes the value as it was entered without rounding it up.
• Automation Profile page > Cost Benefit Analysis page in Edit mode: users can add up to two decimals for values entered in the Robot Speed Multiplier field.
• Users posting comments are now receiving an email notification when someone replies.

Fixed Bugs

• Workspace > Automation Pipeline: the text in Submitter's Department did not respect the upper/lower case value as entered in Add User form.
• If several roles were assigned to a user and at least one of them was not assigned to a specific category, the user could perform certain actions for any categories, although the role allowing them to perform those actions was restricted to specific categories.
• Dashboards > Average Automation Cost: in pie graphs, sections with a 0% value were occupying an irrelevant amount of space in the pie chart.
• Dashboards > Automation Program Performance: if the Ease of implementation value of an automation was updated in its Cost Benefit Analysis page, the updated information was not reflected in the dashboard information.
• Automation Profile Page: media files remained available even if users removed them.
• Components: when editing a component in Component Profile, media files could be removed only by replacing them with another file.
• Citizen Developer lifecycle: if the System Admin selected to Put on Hold an automation that is in the Technical Review phase, the phase was wrongly changing to Business Review.
• Share an automation: in the Pre and Post Automation Category, the Average Process Duration was not marked as mandatory.
• Admin Console > Platform Setup > Categories: if the title “Other” was set up for a new category entry, the category was not saved.
• Admin Console > Manage Users > User Roles: the second column label was updated to Automation Ideas.

• Admin Console > Manage Users > People page > Add User > Basic Information: the Email is now the first field displayed in this section.

Fixed Bugs

• Workspace > Automation Pipeline > CSV download: if the Est Net Benefit Year 2 column was not selected then its values were displayed in the following column replacing the values of a column that was actually selected.
• Workspace > Automation Pipeline > Decision Pipeline > Filter by Automation Goal: instead of the correct label the filter was marked as Unknown. Furthermore, the filter results were not accurate.
