Copies Report
The Copies Report lists processes whose contents are 100% the same. Copies are different from Duplicates, with the difference described as follows:
- Copies are processes imported into Blueprint from the same RPA tool having the same contents. To determine this Blueprint compares their Raw Data, COM Data and Index Field i.e. Order of the Steps etc. at action level. The purpose of highlighting copies is to expose opportunities for consolidation to improve maintainability and quality.
- Duplicates occur when the exact same RPA code component is imported multiple times. To determine this Blueprint compares all its content at Process level. All the content must be exactly identical for the process to be designated as a duplicate. The purpose of highlighting duplicates is to remove them from statistics (dashboards, reports) and to ensure licenses are not charged multiple times for the same RPA component.
In the Copies Report all the processes determined to be identical are listed together in by a Group Id.
