Activating Process Automation Content

A department within your company regularly creates Microsoft Excel documents that contain data about goods and materials that are required by the department. In order to trigger the purchasing process, purchase requisitions need to be created within the company’s SAP S/4HANA system. As it is a tedious task to go through the Excel list line by line and to create purchase requisitions for each required product manually, you as a (citizen) business process developer are given the task to implement an automation that creates the required purchase requisitions from the list automatically. The finished automation will free up your colleague’s valuable time. Before you start to create the automation from scratch, you browse through the SAP Build Process Automation Store. Fortunately, an appropriate Task Automation content is already available as a template in the Store. It makes your life easier as you only need to activate the content and adjust it in case of more specific requirements.

In the task of this exercise, you will perform the following steps:

1. Browse for required Task Automation content in the SAP Build Process Automation Store.
2. Open the imported Task Automation content.
3. Create a new project from the Task Automation Template.
4. Download the exported SAP Build Process Automation project file.

To start the exercise, choose Start Exercise in the figure below.

A pop-up opens. You have the following options:
