Does Process Automation support parallel processing?

295 Views

G'day all,

Is parallel processing supported in SAP Build Process Automation?

I'm working on an inbound email PDF Invoice process based very much off the Discovery Centre SBPA Invoice Processing Journey and want the ability to spawn parallel flows for each Invoice taken from Outlook (there can be mulitple mails, muliple Invoices per mail, multiple Invoices per PDF). I can't see how this can be achieved.

I'm trying to avoid processing sequentially mostly because the DOX OCR elements take so long. I don't want the AP clerk waiting after each Invoice for the next one to process.

I contemplated running a job on a short time interval and only processing one email per instance, but there is still the potential for multiple invoices per mail.

Any and all advice greatly appreaciated.

Have fun,
Mark
