Robots that have been created or added in SmartManager would be developed in the SmartDesigner. While saving, this robot will be committed to UAT. The committed robots will be available in the Move to UAT. From move to UAT, if it passes UAT testing, it will go to In UAT.  From there, it will move to In Live-ready for Production environment.

Once the workflow is moved successfully to UAT, all pertaining information is available in the Robot List By Version. Once again click on the Deploy button. Workflow Type will show as Deployed. Commit Comments, Committed By , Committed Date , Deployed By, and the Deployed Date and Time are displayed.
