A user is conducting a code review for a project that needs to be executed daily and carries out the following tasks:
- Establish a connection with a department mailbox and filter all unread emails that have "Invoice" in their subject line.
- For every filtered email: - Download all the attachments contained within.
- Mark the email as "Read".
The following image displays the Process.xaml workflow for the Performer process, which was developed using the REFramework:
[J] Process* ft

What is wrong with this design?
In the context of the REFramework (Robotic Enterprise Framework), the optimal design segregates the responsibilities between Dispatcher and Performer processes. The Dispatcher is responsible for collecting transaction data and adding it to the queue, while the Performer processes each transaction item from the queue. In this scenario, 'FindEmailsToProcess.xaml' should logically be part of a Dispatcher process that identifies and queues each relevant email as a transaction item. Subsequently, the Performer would process these items. This separation enhances modularity, scalability, and error handling by clearly delineating the responsibilities between collecting transaction data and processing it.
