Question #6 (Topic: Topic 1)
Consider the following high-level design. The solution is intended to read medical data from one application in order to update another. An input file is prepared by
an overnight batch run for the solution to work through each morning before patients arrive. Usually the input file is fairly small but at certain times each month the
file is much larger.

Which of these options should be considered be the process solution designer to guarantee the quality of the end-to-end solution? (Choose four.)
A. Once in production the process controller should ensure that the process is only ever run on one Resource PC.
B. The solution should log in to the applications before starting the case working loop.
C. The solution should split the file into pieces to distribute to each Resource PC.
D. The solution should log out from applications after existing working loop.
E. Each Resource PC should be set to take a different row from the others, e.g. RPC-A works rows 1, 4, 7, 10 etc., RPC-B works 2, 5, 8 etc. and RPC-C works 3, 6, 9 etc.
F. The solution should start by loading the file data into a work queue.
G. The file should be updated at the start of each case to prevent other RPCs from working it.
H. Once in production the clinic should wait until the solution has completed before admitting patients.
I. The batch run should create multiple input files so that each Resource PC has its own file to work with.
J. The file should be updated after each case to indicate that the case has been worked. K. The solution should use an environment lock to ensure the file can only be accessed by one Resource PC at a time.
Answer: BEGH
Question #7 (Topic: Topic 1)
Consider the following high-level design.
[Blue Prism-ASD01-1.0/xmlfile-16_1.jpg]
The application concerned is prone to being sluggish or even unresponsive at times. As the solution designer you should anticipate that there will be system
exceptions and that after an exception case the application might not be in an ideal state.
What should you do? (Choose three.)

The application concerned is prone to being sluggish or even unresponsive at times. As the solution designer you should anticipate that there will be system
exceptions and that after an exception case the application might not be in an ideal state.

G. Add ‘clean up’ logic to get the application in the right position after Work Step3.
Answer: ABC
Question #8 (Topic: Topic 1)
Consider the following steps for a theoretical manual process.
? Check in input folder any new files.
? If there are no files check again later as files can arrive anytime, and there is no limit to the number of files that may come.
? Open the next available file.
? Take the first case.
? Start System X and find the case details.
? If the case can’t be found, move to the next one.
? After finding the case in System X, fetch additional case details from System Y.
? Again if the case can’t be found, move to the next one.
? Analyse all the data to see if System Z should be updated.
? If the data does not meet the requirements, add notes indicating this to System X and Y and move to the next case.
? If the data does meet the requirements, update the case in System Z.
? Add notes to System X and Y and move to the next case.
? At the end of the file, go back and look for another.
? Stop checking for new files at 16:00 and finish any remaining cases.
? When all work is complete create a report of the day’s exception cases.
Close down Systems X, Y and Z.

If the volume of incoming cases is such that 1 Resource PC can easily handle the workload, which of the following steps for an automated solution should be part
