How ETL Essentials works
ETL Essentials creates the connectors that allow you to pull data from many different sources. It processes that data transforming the various formats of each source into a single format that your robots can then read and action.
Extract
Extraction gathers information from multiple systems, both internal and external. It can pull reports or reading off the screen at a speed unmatched by even the nimblest of human users.
In the event of an exception, the ETL Essentials solution will step out and ask for verification from an authorized knowledge worker.
Transform
Transformation manipulates the collected information. It can perform calculations and validations, add tags, remove unnecessary or duplicate information. It formats the information from different systems into one consistent document, sheet, or database.
Load
The information is delivered to your robots so they can take action. Copies can also be sent to authorized people via email or other message services.
