Manual Process Vs. Automated Processes: Head to Head
Find out the difference between Manual processes and Automated Processes in the following Example
Let’s say you need to generate a purchase order for 500 new widgets. In the manual process, you would either find the paper version of the purchase order request form or download a spreadsheet template from an online folder. Then, you need to fill out every detail and attach it by email to send to your manager. The manager should approve it and send it to procurement, who should create the PO.
However, there are a lot of holes in this process. First, the form may have lots of fields and opportunities for data transfer errors. Second, there’s no way for you to check to see how far along the process is. To know if your manager has approved, you need to send an additional email. If she responds to that “approved” with procurement on cc, now, procurement is stuck with an email without an attachment. Data security and accuracy is also an issue as you need to make sure no one tampers with the numbers and the PO is accurate.
