Overview of this book

With an increase in the number of organizations deploying RPA solutions, Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is quickly becoming the most desired skill set for both developers starting their career and seasoned professionals. This book will show you how to use Automation Anywhere A2019, one of the leading platforms used widely for RPA. Starting with an introduction to RPA and Automation Anywhere, the book will guide you through the registration, installation, and configuration of the Bot agent and Control Room. With the help of easy-to-follow instructions, you’ll build your first bot and discover how you can automate tasks with Excel, Word, emails, XML, and PDF files. You’ll learn from practical examples based on real-world business scenarios, and gain insights into building more robust and resilient bots, executing external scripts such as VBScripts and Python, and adding error handling routines. By the end of this RPA book, you’ll have developed the skills required to install and configure an RPA platform confidently and have a solid understanding of how to build complex and robust, yet performant, bots.

Performing basic arithmetic calculations

We need to add actions to enable the bot to calculate Monthly Payment. We know the formula is (Amount + Interest)/ (Years x 12).

We have all the values needed to perform this calculation already assigned to variables. For your bot to calculate this, perform the following steps:

  1. Drag the Number: Assign action just below line 13, ensuring it is within the Loop action on line 7.
  2. Set the following properties for the Number: Assign action on line 14:

    Select the source string variable/value: ($numAmount$ + $numInterest$)/(12 * $numYears$)

    Select the destination number variable: numMonthly - Number

    The action properties dialog should look like this:

  3. Click on Save.

We are near the end now; you're doing really well! The next step is to write the results to the output CSV file we created earlier.
