CSSA 7.1 practice exam
Hello, below CSSA 7.1 practice exam question lacks context. is it an email listener? my understanding is that, when configured as agent the activity is always executed & within the activity it might skip business logic if no email. may be i am missing something here.
An agent is configured to run once per day at midnight to process incoming emails. If there are no emails received that day, which statement correctly describes the agent behavior?

Your logic is correct and the displayed-as-correct answer is correct.
The question's is about an advanced agent that processes incoming emails.
It can be presumed that the emails that were received throughout the day by a listener and held for processing.
An advanced agent always runs regardless there being any work to do, hence processing is skipped.
The first answer sounds correct but is not the best answer.
Also: be suspicious of any answer choice that mentions lower-case "thread".

In looking at the following question, I do not understand why Rule E is correct. As I understand it, since Ruleset3:01-17-99 is withdrawn, and the ruleset version, major version, purpose, etc.. are all the same, Ruleset3:01-09-12 should also be hidden from resolution. Am I missing something?
An application rule lists the following application rulesets, in order:
- Ruleset1:01-05
- Ruleset2:02-03
- Ruleset3:01-17-50
On the system hosting the application there are five (5) instances of the section rule, XYZ.

| Rule | Applies To class | Ruleset & Version | Availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | Org-Div-Work | Ruleset1:01-04-02 | Yes |
| B | Org-Div-Work-ABC | Ruleset2:01-02-01 | Blocked |
| C | Org-Div-Work-ABC | Ruleset3:01-17-99 | Withdrawn |
| D | Org-Div-Work | Ruleset2:02-02-01 | Yes |
| E | Org-Div-Work-ABC | Ruleset3:01-09-12 | Yes |
Which version of section XYZ does the system attempt to use when processing a case of type ABC?

Hi,
double-check the patch version of the ruleset3 your application is pointing at.
It doesn't matter version 99 is withdrawn or not.

Thank you, Damien for pointing that out. I was basing it off of the info below from the student guide, but failed to taking into account that the ruleset stack had a patch version specified already. Much appreciated.
During the ranking process, the system evaluates any of the candidates that have their
Availability set to ”Withdrawn”. Withdrawn is a special Availability that lets us skip over some
candidates. When a rule is marked as Withdrawn, it is removed from the list of candidates as
well as any additional candidates that match all of the following:
The same ‘AppliesTo’ Class
The same Ruleset Name
The same Ruleset Major version
The same Purpose
The same Qualifiers

Hi,
Corrrect me if I'm wrong. I believe if a Rule is Blocked and the rule resolution reaches a blocked rule, it should throw an error, It shouldn't look for further rules of the same name.
Now coming to the above question, Since Ruleset2 has a higher precedence than Ruleset3 (According to application stack), shouldn't the rule resolution reach Rule B and throw an error?

Ruleset 2 in the stack is major version 02 ... the rule in question is in major version 01 ... for this reason, I believe, the system is going to pitch the rule in question.
