 1. Microsoft Power Automate


OPTIMIZE HOW YOU WORK WITH RPA AND PROCESS MINING IN POWER AUTOMATE

Stephen Siciliano, Partner PM Director, Power Automate, Tuesday, November 2,
2021



Today, at Microsoft Ignite, we are announcing the latest step in helping
organizations harness the power of low-code automation with several updates in
Microsoft Power Automate.

We recognize that hybrid work is here to stay and that it requires new ways to
work that foster collaboration and drive more innovation on an enterprise scale.
We are excited to announce several new capabilities in Power Automate that
support your organization’s digital transformation.

Continue reading to learn about the latest updates with cloud-based robotic
process automation (RPA) in Power Automate and see how you can automate
activities, more securely, right from the desktop of your Windows PC. And gain
deeper insights into your business processes and take the guesswork out of
inefficiencies in your workflows with the preview of process mining in process
advisor.




DISCOVER INEFFICIENCIES IN YOUR WORKFLOWS WITH PROCESS MINING—IN PREVIEW

We are announcing the next evolution of process advisor with the preview of
process mining. Process mining is part of process advisor and provides direct
data insights across the business processes many organizations use daily to
identify inefficiencies across workflows. Process advisor is comprised of two
powerful capabilities, the existing task mining capability for capturing user
interactions on a desktop, and now with process mining it uses business data to
provide a holistic view into bottlenecks across the business.

With process mining, organizations can do the following:

 * Easy to get started: Quickly create a new process with the intuitive
   interface in process advisor and upload your data from the appropriate system
   of record to select your key data sources for analysis.
 * Customize your data with deeper analytics: Customize your insights by
   selecting from an array of attributes that you define—such as regions,
   invoice types, and more—and filter down to identify bottlenecks in your
   processes. You can review the process maps and analytics to glean insights
   across your business processes.
 * Discover inefficiencies and improve productivity: From these insights, you
   can quickly identify which activities are most time-consuming, discover
   commonalities in their business practices and improve efficiencies by
   identifying bottlenecks—ultimately streamlining workflows and boosting
   productivity.

Customers are already seeing the value of identifying business processes that
are candidates for process mining. PwC is one such customer. PwC is looking for
new ways to innovate its tech ecosystem and process advisor is one solution they
are looking at for future opportunities.

“Our team is committed to putting the most innovative technology into the hands
of our people and empowering them to help our clients solve their most complex
problems. We are always looking for opportunities to drive better business
outcomes for our firm and for our clients, and we see enormous potential in the
Power Platform. Automation and Process Mining in Process Advisor hold particular
promise for us—with the opportunity to streamline our service delivery, while at
the same time unlocking new insights about our clients’ processes—enabling our
people, powered by innovative tech, to deliver the value our clients expect from
PwC.”—Joe Atkinson, Chief Products and Technology Officer, PWC

HARNESS THE POWER OF RPA ON AN ENTERPRISE SCALE

Power Automate enables everyone—coders and non-coders alike—to automate the most
mundane tasks from their desktop with a low-code automation platform. Not only
can you leverage pre-built templates with cloud flows to automate approvals in
Microsoft Teams, but you can also turn outdated processes into automated
workflows with desktop flows, the RPA capability in Power Automate. We recently
released RPA in Windows 11—Power Automate for desktop is now included at no
additional cost—and we have made it easier to get started and added additional
controls to manage and scale automations across an enterprise.


SCALE RPA FURTHER, FASTER WITH AZURE VIRTUAL DESKTOP—IN PREVIEW

We are announcing that there is an easier way to manage installing and
provisioning RPA across your organization with the Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD)
starter kit, now in preview. Organizations can manage everything from the
installation of RPA to the provisioning of machines to quickly scale up or scale
down and support unpredictable spikes in demand. With the starter kit, you can
integrate existing AVD deployments and automatically turn on virtual machines
(VMs) to scale RPA workloads faster. This helps optimize infrastructure costs
and reduce overall wait times for flow runs in Power Automate. You can download
the starter kit today.




MANAGE AUTOMATIONS WITH EASE USING DATA LOSS PREVENTION FOR RPA—IN PREVIEW

As organizations begin to grow and scale RPA it is critical to do so in a
responsible way. To support the management and controls over automations, we are
announcing that data loss prevention (DLP) for desktop flows is now in preview.
With this, administrators can define policies for automations and warn makers
when they are creating flows that may go against their organizational governance
rules.




BOOST ORGANIZATIONAL PRODUCTIVITY WITH NEW CAPABILITIES VIA MAKER COLLABORATION

Microsoft Power Platform can scale innovation unlike any other platform by
allowing pro developers to build apps with makers in the business and IT
directly. Collaboration in Power Automate takes on the look and feel of Office
in Microsoft 365 where makers and developers can come together to collaborate,
comment, troubleshoot, and solve challenges while building flows. For example,
you can remind your team about changes to a specific step in a Power Automate
flow and with presence indicators, prevent disruptions to the overall editing
workflow. Now in preview, learn more.




START AUTOMATING TODAY

Power Automate is delivering more and more capabilities to help optimize how
organizations work in today’s modern world by streamlining the automation
experience in Windows 11, providing more scalability with the AVD starter kit,
and Microsoft Teams users will soon have access to prebuilt Power Automate
templates from the Microsoft Store—keep an eye out for this feature that is
coming soon.

All these capabilities work together to help your organization harness the power
of automation and process mining.

Be sure to try the preview of process mining today and watch the Microsoft
Ignite OD162 session to learn more about these announcements in Power Automate.
