Why I Learned to

Automate

OneUnited Bank Event Management Situation

Situation:

• Manual event and connections tracking on paper

• Time consuming, manual data entry, information got lost in translation

• Slow to no follow up

Solution:

• Make this process accurate and efficient through automation

How:

• Process Builder

Why I Learned to Use Process Builder & You Should Too

• Limitations on traditional workflow rules

• Cuts down on code to reduce development time and backlog

• Easy-to-use: the visual breakdown enables us to know in a glance exactly what to expect in every process

Comparing Process Builder to Workflow RulesIssue Process Builder Workflow Rules

Development time ½ day to 2 days for typical workflow

1 to 2 weeks depending on backlog

Testing process Testing can take place with simulated users in a sandbox environment by administrator

Testing can take place with simulated users in a sandbox environment bydeveloper

Workflow Design Visual design engine business user friendly

Coded workflows more difficult to understand and refine

Skills required Business analyst with administrator help

Developer resources needed

Deployment One click provisioning to production

Significant level of effort to deploy

Process monitoring Visual monitoring of workflow status

No visual interface for monitoring

Applications built with Process Builder have been developed 3x faster at 50% of the cost!

How I Approach

Automation

Translate a Business Process into an Automated Process

• Determine stages in process and the actions within each stage

• Determine stage criteria – what is going to trigger the automations?

• Identify event triggers, notifications and approvals

Where Do I Begin?

Design the process with your target users in mind:

Benchmark business process before so you can show increase automation

White board sessions can help you determine exactly what you want to happen

at every stage!

Begin Building the Process

Prototype and test: • Create any custom objects, fields, or templates needed

• Make sure your process includes the correct criteria and actions to execute as planned

• Test with your stakeholders and a pilot group

• Test, test and test again!

Measure and refine:• Measure usability and process performance

• Link to business outcomes and organizational objectives

How I Automated My Business Process

1. Created custom objects: • Attendee object for tracking attendees and event object for tracking events

• Custom fields on both linked with master detail relationship

• Email templates and chatter actions

2. Created process:• Email alerts for sending immediate communication

• Create a campaign member record

• Create opportunity

Steps Taken
