What other process automations can we do?

An example of data reconciliation that can be automated using Nextgen is the process of reconciling data from multiple sources to ensure its accuracy and completeness. This could involve extracting data from various systems, such as financial systems, customer relationship management(CRM) systems, and inventory systems, and then using RPA to compare the data and identify any discrepancies. The bot could then be used to perform data cleansing and data mapping tasks to ensure that the data is consistent and accurate across all systems. This automation would save time and effort and would also help to ensure the reliability and integrity of the organization's data.
