      - Add a fault activity to a subprocess
        You can define a fault that is raised at any specified point in a workflow. You can add only one fault resource for each fault activity.
    - Fault Scope Activity
      The Fault Scope activity is used to contain activities in a subprocess that are likely to raise errors. If a fault is somewhat predictable, the Fault Scope activity can invoke preset resolutions that deal with the fault and permit the workflow to continue at the point immediately following the scope.
    - Fault Handler
      The fault handler's main role is to provide a means of recovery from an error in a workflow. It associates a specific error with the recovery process.
