Question # 4

You're creating a process model that will serve as the case creation workflow.Your requirements:This process captures input from the user before executing a series of unattendedsubprocess nodes.Each subprocess performs extended data processing which is dependent on output fromeach of the previous nodes.An activity chained task node is displayed asking the user if they'd like to create anothercase.What should you do?

A. Combine the separate subprocesses into one synchronous subprocess and place it in between each user input task. 
B. Configure the subprocess nodes to run asynchronously and set the inputs to pass as reference to enable data sharing. 
C. Add an AND gate after the first user input task and place the synchronous subprocess nodes on a parallel path.

The string output is saved to a process variable with data type Text.Which two options will reduce the memory usage? (Choose two.)

A. Save the string output directly to the data structure to be written to the database.  
B. Configure the process to delete previously completed or cancelled instances.  
C. Ensure that all process variables have the option "Hidden" deselected.  
D. Evaluate each step in a separate script task and save the output to a process variable.

Question # 6

You need to create a quality control (QC) review process for a factory that allows a QCtechnician to review each production line regularly.You have the following requirements:• Each technician has 45 minutes to complete their review.• After 45 minutes, the review will expire.• Expired reviews are flagged as 'Review expired.'• 'Review expired' flags trigger an email notification to a supervisor, and the review datashould not be saved.• The technician can save a Draft copy of their review before submission and can comeback to work on it later if necessary.• Once a review is 'Submitted.' the review data is saved to the databaseWhat should you implement?

A. A send message event which sends an email after 45 minutes to the supervisor  
B. An escalation that sends an email after 45 minutes to the supervisor  
C. An exception timer that skips the OC review task alter 45 minutes, which flows to a Send Email node configured to notify a supervisor.
