NEW QUESTION 17
Pacific West Banking has a payments process that automatically receives pending payments from multiple regions into their payment system (Paytex).
Paytex contains a queue of cases awaiting payment. When processing the case manually an agent must use two other systems, the core banking system (DataPlus) and online account checker (FireWire).
The manual processing must perform the following steps:
* Open the next case where the status is null in Paytex
* Set the status to "In Progress" in Paytex
* Validate source account in DataPlus
* Confirm source funds in DataPlus
* Check for fraud flags in Paytex
* Confirm recipient IBAN details in Firewire
* Perform payment in Paytex
* Update case in Paytex queue. Add payment confirmation number to case and set status to "Completed"
* Where cases cannot be fulfilled due to validation errors (e.g. invalid account details, insufficient funds, suspected fraud etc.) the customers will be contacted by the agent to resolve.
A proposed Blue Prism solution with the following properties has been created to automate the payment processing:
* There will be one Blue Prism process that will perform the steps described above.
* Where a case is an exception the status will be set in Paytex to "Manual Review" in order that the manual team can pick up the case from Paytex and contact the customer and conclude the case.
* It is anticipated that to meet the SLAs of the expected volumes up to 5 instances of the Blue Prism process will be required to run concurrently.
* A Blue Prism work queue will be used to host the payments. The queue will be configured for only 1 attempt per case and the key will be (region) & {source account number}.
* The process will be started by the scheduler at 06:00 and will stop at 05:50.


Which of the following are correct? (Choose three.)

• A. There is a risk that a payment can be duplicated.
• B. The process should not be designed to use a Blue Prism Work Queue but use Paytex as the work queue.
• C. The solution exposes sensitive personal information.
• D. There is a risk that a payment can be orphaned.
• E. The process will not scale i.e. you cannot run multiple instances at the same time.
• F. The process should not be automated as it uses a third party web application.

Answer: B,C,E

NEW QUESTION 32
VivaBank have an account closure process that can take up to three days to close an account. All requests within the bank's core system to close an account take place overnight during batch processing. There are two scenarios:

The timings relate to the expected automation time.
All requests will arrive in a Blue Prism work queue from multiple channels using either web services or other Blue Prism processes.
The following detail from the Functional Requirement Questionnaire must be considered:
* Cases must be processed on the same day if they come in between 08 00 and 22:00 Monday to Friday
* Exception cases are to be emailed to the manual team during processing as and when they occur.
* It is expected that up to 200 cases can be expected per day.
The Blue Prism solution consists of four processes and four Blue Prism Work Queues.

Cases come into the Account Closures Work Queue and are processed by the Account Closure process which determines if they are ^Nil Balance" or "Balance to Transfer" scenarios. Before adding the case to the relevant work queue, a check is made to see if an identical key has been added to the work queue today. If so the case is not added.
The Transfer Balance process works its queue and, for each successfully processed case, adds case to the Close Account queue.
The Close Account process works its queue and. for each successfully processed case, adds a case to the Confirm Closure queue with the case deferred to 08:00 the next day.
The Confirm Closure process completes the sequence by confirming that the account is finally closed.
A scheduler has been created to start all four processes at 08:00. Each process shall be configured to finish accordingly:

Please select from the statements below the ones you consider to be correct (select 2 responses

• A. As an alternative the solution could use just one queue instead of four
• B. All processes should be merged into one process to optimize licenses
• C. Exception cases should not be distributed whilst the processes are running and instead should be distributed when each process has completed
• D. There should be a separate work queue for each channel feeding the process.
• E. The Confirm Closure process should work until 22:00

Answer: D,E

NEW QUESTION 36
A process is required for a telecoms company to work cases supplied via a daily Excel file. Although the file will only contain around 1000 rows, the average case time is such that the workload is far too big for one machine to complete in a day, so the solution has been designed with multiple machines in mind. One machine will load the work queue while the others wait, then once the queue is ready all machines will work it together.
The requirements state that the input file is machine generated, has a known format, is generally clean but may contain exceptions - rows with an empty cell, partial phone numbers, or accounts that don't exist.
What should the solution do to combat this problem?

• A. The solution should read the file and load the queue without validating the data. The data validation should be the first step in working a queue item, with invalid cases marked as exceptions.
• B. The solution should open the file and delete any row with either missing, incomplete or invalid data.
  Then the 'clean' file should be read and the resulting collection added to the queue.
• C. The solution read the file and then loop through the resulting collection and discard any row with either missing, incomplete or invalid data. Then the 'clean' collection should then be loaded into the queue.
• D. The solution should validate the data and check that the accounts exist in the target applications beforehand, so that only clean cases are loaded into the queue.
• E. The solution should apply a filter to the Excel file to hide any row with empty cells and only load the complete rows.

Answer: C

 

NEW QUESTION 37
ProSafe credit reference agency retrieves data from bank and other credit providers where customers have missed payments or gone into default. The data is very sensitive and fed directly into a Blue Prism work queue via a web service. Blue Prism process must process the data within 4 hours. The Blue Prism solution runs continuously and each case takes approximately 30 seconds to process. It is expected that an average of
10,000 cases per day will be required and up to 10 Blue Prism robots are available.
The Blue Prism solution is sown below:

For each case of the process will access the customer account in the HotRisk system and, where an account exists, harvest the data which will be fed along with the Work Queue data into a rules engine. The rules engine is a Blue Prism process that does not interact with any target system. It merely consumes data and, via a complicated series of decision and choice stages, determines the new customer risk factor.
There is to be no scheduler used. Instead the Process Controllers who work in shifts to provide 24 hour support will stop and start process instances in line with Work Queue volumes.
As a Blue Prism process solution designer, who is reviewing the solution, which of the following would concern you? (Choose three.)

• A. The rules engine has been built in a process not an object.
• B. There is no scheduler.
• C. The data is too sensitive for automated processing.
• D. The process does not have an end stage.
• E. The process opens and closes the HotRisk system for each case.
• F. The solution is not scalable.

Answer: B,E,F

 

NEW QUESTION 38
SanQuest Bank's call center regularly receives requests from customers for the exact amount required to clear their loan. This is a complicated calculation that is prone to human error. The bank has decided to use Blue Prism to perform the calculation and is considering amending its front end system OneBase to allow a user to click a button to request a Loan Consolidation Amount.
They plan to communicate with Blue Prism using web services. Consider the two proposed designs:

Here a Blue Prism object is exposed as a web service. OneBase calls this service providing the account number. The Blue Prism object add the case to a work queue and then returns the Case ID to complete the web service call.
A Blue Prism process works the queue and harvests the data required to perform the calculation. The same Blue Prism process calls a OneBase web service and provides the load settlement figure. OneBase completes the web service call by returning a success flag.

Here the Blue Process that harvests the data is exposed a web service with the loan settlement figure as an output. OneBase calls the web service and provides the account number. The BluePrism process harvests the data and completes the web service call by providing the loan settlement figure.
Considering Blue Prism best practice which of the following statements is correct?

• A. Design A is the most appropriate option
• B. Design B is the most appropriate option
• C. Neither Design A nor Design B is appropriate
• D. Both Design A and Design B are appropriate
