Checking emails, copying data into the accounting system and sending end-of-day reports can be done by a software robot.

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) uses software robots to do basic tasks across computer applications, running background jobs or interacting with the screen just as a person would.
Before RPA, an accountant checks emails for invoices and other financial transactions, fills in the accounting system, and sends reports to supervisors at the end of the day. After RPA, the robot performs these steps at a specific time every day, so the process is more efficient and accurate.
AUN provides UiPath and has used RPA to automate the screening of sales order data against import regulations for iron and steel goods.
