Business Process Automation with Salesforce Flows

Part 1: Understanding Business Requirements and Automation Needs

In this part, you will learn and understand the business requirements and the need for automating them so that the system can take care of the repetitive, redundant, and automatable tasks in the backend. We will explore and see how we can take advantage of tools that we can leverage and identify these tasks that can be automated. At the end of this part, you will be able to create a functional design specification that you can use to identify what tasks shall be performed by the end users and what tasks can be automated.

We will also address some of the key challenges faced during this phase:

  • Not being able to identify the right set of requirements that can be automated.
  • Lack of understanding of business needs and hence not being able to create a solution / design for what to and what not to automate.
  • Too much automation is due to a lack of planning.
  • Not assessing the impact of existing and planned automation holistically, resulting in automation logic executing randomly.

The following chapters will be covered in this part.

  • Chapter 1, Process Flows – Understanding Business Requirements
  • Chapter 2, Identification of Functional Requirements for Automation
  • Chapter 3, Business Process Features to Automate

Description

The low adoption of most IT projects often stems from a lack of business process automation. While business users get the functionality they need, the excessive manual steps involved in execution impede efficiency.

This book starts by quickly exploring various aspects of process automation using Salesforce Flows, covering flow nuts and bolts, flow structure, flow execution order, and different types of flows, as well as troubleshooting techniques to manage your processes using the Flow Builder tool. You’ll then become acquainted with the Flow Orchestration tool, which enables you to compose and orchestrate complex business processes. Through real-world scenarios, you’ll learn how to effectively automate business processes, follow the end-to-end business process flow, automate it using flow orchestration, and learn how to demystify and simplify business process automation. By the end of this book, you’ll be proficient in seamlessly automating your business processes without any hassle.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter.

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
