Implementation of Robotic Process Automation in the Accounting and Tax

The aim of the paper is to investigate Robotic Process Automation algorithms in the context of improving modern information infrastructure, to formulate and test an approach to the development of software robots. To achieve this goal, several tasks were identified: - Select the main types of business processes that can be automated by using Robotic Process Automation of accounting and tax accounting; - Analyze existing approaches to the development of software robots; - Formulate an approach to the development of software robots and demonstrate its use on a practical example; - To test the formulated approach on the example of a company from the retail industry. The work consists of three chapters. The first chapter defines the term "Robotic Process Automation", discusses the goals and objectives of software robotization, its predecessors, and existing approaches. The second chapter describes the existing classification of software robots, reviews the software for software robotization of business processes, highlights the requirements for the information infrastructure. In the third chapter, a practical case for introducing a software robot into a company from the retail sector is analyzed, the effect of the implementation is assessed, and practical recommendations are given.
