Fault Activity
Fault activities allow you to end a workflow in a predictable way under specific conditions. It is used to create a user-defined stop point within a workflow where an error is raised.
If a fault resource is selected when the fault activity is configured, that fault is raised with its associated error message. If a fault has not been selected, the activity raises a default fault, or a non-specific error.
The common use for a fault activity is within a fault scope where the end result is expected and defined. Fault activities should not be used in a linear process as they will cause the process and the workflow to end and begin the postsubprocess and unload steps.
