    Hello @KOLI CHARAN​ 

     

    Thank you for posting in the Automation Anywhere user community forum!

     

    Based on the description, we have suggested a bot logic below that can help achieve the use case. We hope this provides more clarity and information to get you going!

     

    • Try using the System Variables package to assign the current date and time to a user-defined variable when the bot runs. This will ensure that the time when the bots is run is captured into a user-defined variable

    Product documentation: https://docs.automationanywhere.com/bundle/enterprise-v2019/page/enterprise-cloud/topics/aae-client/bot-creator/using-variables/cloud-using-variables.html

     

    • Once the above steps are performed, please use the user-defined variable to write to the Excel file
