9. Getting the Blueprint Right: Best Practices for RPA Process Requirements
When you're configuring your automation, you need a blueprint because a blueprint will tell you what you're building. Once you've decided which process you want to automate, you also need a process to follow.

So if the process is so important, what are the best practices for RPA process requirements?
On this episode of Generation Digital Workforce, Khatina Brunson, customer success manager at Blue Prism, discusses how companies can implement best practices for RPA processes.
Here's what we talked with Khatina about:
