Workflow Designer -> T81 - Automating Sales-Order process with Workflow Designer

Task Description: Graphically represent the chain of tasks to automate Sales-Order process using the intuitive Workflow Designer. In this workflow we represent graphically Sales-Order process from downloading order details from the web, processing the order to create invoices, printing invoices, database backup and email notifications.

Solution
1.	Create a new workflow	Click on Workflow Designer from the main Automation Anywhere window. Drag 'Start' command from Toolkit to the right window Screenshot 1
2.	Design Workflow	Drag the 'Run' command from the Toolkit Enter the Run Task parameters. For the purposes of this example, we run a task to extract sales order details from the web as shown in Screenshot 2. Once the data is downloaded from the web, run the task to process invoices based on the downloaded sales order data. IF invoice 'File Exists' then run the task to print the invoices. Screenshot 3 If due to some error invoices cannot be processed, the Backup Database task is run to ensure that no information is lost. If for some reason the above Backup Database task is unsuccessful, send email notification to the concerned persons. The complete workflow for Sales-Order process is shown in Screenshot 4 Screenshot 5 shows the execution path of the workflow.
When you run this workflow, it downloads sales-order details from the web and process invoices. Based on that it takes further appropriate actions.
