# Proposing a Process Candidate for Automation

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

You evaluate a process candidate to propose it for automation.

## Before You Begin

- Ask an organization administrator in Access Management to assign you the required permissions:

  <table><colgroup><col> <col> <col></colgroup><thead><tr><th>Action</th><th>RPA Permission</th><th>Deprecated RPA Permission</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><p>Open the <strong>Process Evaluation</strong> module and view only processes that you have created yourself, that is, for which you are the process owner.</p></td><td><p>RPA Evaluations Viewer, RPA Evaluations Contributor, RPA Evaluations Manager, RPA Administrator</p></td><td><p>Process Evaluation Open</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Display all processes in the <strong>Process Evaluation</strong> view.</p></td><td><p>RPA Evaluations Viewer, RPA Evaluations Contributor, RPA Evaluations Manager, RPA Administrator</p></td><td><p>Global Process Evaluation View</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Create, edit, and delete evaluations.</p></td><td><p>RPA Evaluations Contributor, RPA Evaluations Manager, RPA Administrator</p></td><td><p>Process Evaluation Administration</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Open the <strong>Evaluation Templates</strong> view.</p></td><td><p>RPA Evaluations Viewer, RPA Evaluations Contributor, RPA Evaluations Manager, RPA Administrator</p></td><td><p>Evaluation Templates Open</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Create, change, and delete evaluation criteria.</p></td><td><p>RPA Evaluations Contributor, RPA Evaluations Manager, RPA Administrator</p></td><td><p>Evaluation Template Create, Evaluation Template Edit, Evaluation Template Delete</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

- Create appropriate categories in the view **Process Management** in the module **Process
  Automation**.

  Learn how to [manage categories](https://docs.mulesoft.com/rpa-manager/processautomation-prepare-project-category).

## Manage Process Evaluations

Process evaluations assess the feasibility and benefits of a process’s automation.

### Create a Process Evaluation

Create a process evaluation to propose a process candidate for automation:

1.  In the **Process Evaluation** view of the **Process Evaluation** module click **Create**.

2.  Complete the form **Create Evaluation**.

3.  Click **OK**

4.  Complete the form **Process Evaluation**:

    - **Manual process execution time**:

      Time that an employee requires to carry out the process once. In the list of evaluated
      processes, the value **Manual process execution time** is multiplied by the value **Frequency
      per month** to calculate the value **Effort/month**.

    - **Costs per process run**:

      Costs for a one-time execution of the process. In the list of evaluated processes, the value
      **Costs per process Run** is multiplied by the value **Effort/month** to calculate the
      **Costs/month** value.

    - **Frequency per month**:

      Number of times the process is carried out within a one-month period. This field can only be
      completed if a value exists in the **Manual process execution time** field. In the list of
      evaluated processes, the value **Frequency per month** is multiplied by the value **Manual
      process execution time** to calculate the **Effort/month** value.

    - **Category**:

      A category describes the environment of a process in a few keywords. Choose a category from
      the list.

    - **Qualifiers/Benefits**:

      Drag the slider to the appropriate values. **Exclude** unnecessary criteria.

5.  Click **Save**

### Edit a Process Evaluation

Edit a process evaluation to correct errors:

1.  In the **Process Evaluation** view of the **Process Evaluation** module, click **Edit**
    (![pen-to-paper symbol](/mulesoft/current/en-us/rpa-manager/_images/edit-icon.png)) in the row of the evaluation to edit.

2.  Edit the form **Process Evaluation**.

3.  Click **Save**.

### Delete a Process Evaluation

Delete process evaluations that you no longer need:

1.  In the **Process Evaluation** view of the **Process Evaluation** module, click **Delete**
    (![trash symbol](/mulesoft/current/en-us/rpa-manager/_images/delete-icon.png)) in the row of the evaluation to delete.

2.  Confirm the deletion.
