Examine the following recover flow taken from a Blue Prism Process
The 'Exception Type' data item has no initial value and has a data type of text
The Calculation stage 'Save Exception Type' will output the current exception type to the "Exception Type' data item.
What expression would you use in the 'Save Exception Type' stage to achieve this?
This is the correct expression to use in the calculation stage to output the current exception type to the data item. It uses the built-in object CurrentException and its property Type to get the value of the exception type.

The 'Perform Calculation' stage Properties window is displayed below:
When this diagram is run through the the End stage, what will the current value of the Z data item be?
This is the correct value of the Z data item after running the diagram through the end stage. The calculation stage will set the value of Z to ([X] + [Y])* [X], which is (2 + 4) * 2 = 12. The other options are either incorrect or describe different scenarios.
