B) The Exception Block in the image should be extended to cover all stages in the flow rather than just 4 sub-pages. and E) Between the Recover and Resume stages there should be logic to reset the application ready for the next case to be worked For example, this could call the Close Down and Start Up pages.
A) There is nothing wrong with the Main Page flow shown in the image, it is a copy of Blue Prism's standard Process Template.
C) It would be better to remove the Exception Block and recover, resume logic, and instead handle any exceptions in the sub-pages. Flag data items could instead be passed up as output parameters from the sub-pages informing the Main Page flow if an exception has occurred.
D) The exception handling in the image does not contain any concurrent exception logic. This means there is nothing stopping every item in the Work Queue being marked with the exact same System Exception.

Thinking about the standard Blue Prism Process Templates, what is wrong with how this Mam Page is handling exceptions?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B, E

Tagging Exception Items:

By calling the Exception Stage details and tagging them to the item before marking it as an exception, it ensures that detailed information about the exception is captured and can be viewed later. This helps in identifying the cause of the exception and provides valuable context.

Stage Logging:

Enabling stage logging within each exception properties ensures that all exception details are logged. This allows the Process Controller to view detailed exception information from the session logs, providing a comprehensive view of what went wrong.

Benefits:

These two approaches ensure that exception details are both tagged to the work queue items and logged in the session logs, making it easier for the Process Controller to review and analyze exceptions from different interfaces within Blue Prism.

I thought the reset logic was already included in the standard templates?

I think option E makes sense about resetting the application, but I can't recall if that's standard practice in Blue Prism templates.

I feel like the flow diagram is missing some concurrent exception logic, which could lead to issues. Is that what option D is suggesting?

Option E seems like a good suggestion. Resetting the application between Recover and Resume is an important step I hadn't considered.

I think option C makes the most sense. Handling exceptions in the sub-pages and passing up flags seems like a cleaner approach than the Exception Block.

The image shows a standard Blue Prism process template, so I'm not sure there's anything wrong with it. I might just go with option A.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully analyze the flow diagram and the options to figure out what's wrong with the exception handling.

This question is like a game of 'Spot the Exception' - the more you look, the more you find! I hope the real exam isn't this much of a minefield.

E) Between the Recover and Resume stages there should be logic to reset the application ready for the next case to be worked For example, this could call the Close Down and Start Up pages.

C) It would be better to remove the Exception Block and recover, resume logic, and instead handle any exceptions in the sub-pages. Flag data items could instead be passed up as output parameters from the sub-pages informing the Main Page flow if an exception has occurred.

Between Recover and Resume, don't forget to reset the application. You don't want the next case to inherit the mess from the previous one. Maybe a trip to the 'Close Down and Start Up' pages would do the trick.

Wait, there's no concurrent exception logic? That's just asking for trouble. Every item in the Work Queue could end up with the same System Exception. Yikes!

The main issue here seems to be the limited scope of the Exception Block. Covering just 4 sub-pages is not enough, it should be extended to handle exceptions across the entire process flow.
