**BPA (Business Process Automation)** is the use of technology to execute recurring tasks where manual intervention adds no value. Unlike BPM (which is management), BPA is the technology that makes the wheel turn by itself. It's the engine moving the process.

### **What to automate?**

Don't automate a bad process. First optimize, then automate. Good candidates for BPA:

- **Data transfer:** Copying data from email to Excel.
- **Notifications:** Notifying the client the order has shipped.
- **Simple approvals:** Automatically approving expenses under $50.
- **Document generation:** Creating PDF contracts from forms.

### **How Jestor applies BPA**

This is where Jestor stands out by delivering the solution in practice:

- **Triggers and Actions:** "When a new client is created (Trigger), send a welcome email (Action)."
- **Conditional Automation:** Execute different actions depending on sale value or client type.
- **Integrations:** Jestor talks to Slack, WhatsApp, Banks, and ERPs to automate flow between systems.
- **Scheduling:** Create time-based automations (e.g., "Every 5th, create closing task").
