BPA Designer
Overview
BPA Designer is a pivotal component within the RDA platform that empowers organizations to shape and optimize their operational processes. It represents a dynamic canvas where businesses can orchestrate, visualize, and precisely refine their workflows. This intuitive tool allows users to map out the entire lifecycle of a process, defining each step, decision point, and participant's role. By visually representing workflows, BPA Designer enhances clarity and facilitates team collaboration, ensuring everyone is on the same page. Whether automating routine tasks, streamlining complex procedures, or adapting to changing business needs, BPA Designer is the foundation for building efficient, agile, and adaptable business processes. It offers the flexibility and control necessary to design workflows that align seamlessly with an organization's goals, driving productivity, compliance, and customer satisfaction.
A BPA Process represents your automation definition. It comprises one or several workflows and resources essential for executing your automation. It is packaged and bundled into a designated folder.
A BPA Process can be created and published directly from the BPA Designer or imported into the Control Room. The process package is version-controlled, meaning that every time you publish the Process, it creates a new version of the package. The published Process will be accessible to users who have access to that particular package.
