Abstract: To address the problem of lacking of a standardized method for describing processes in the field of robotic process automation(RPA),this paper proposes a specification for defining RPA processes,including various objects in RPA processes.The specification can be used to analyze complex RPA application scenarios.Additionally,to better define and describe workflow systems and overcome the problem of incompatible process scripts in the RPA field caused by the lack of process modeling stan-dards,a set of RPA process modeling symbols and label systems are defined based on the business process model and notation(BPMN) standard.Finally,it demonstrates the results of defining and describing a typical business process in a banking system using the specification,and verifies the process correctness using Petri nets.

Key words: Robot process automation, Business process model and notation, Petri net
