According to Pega Robotics Studio – DateTime Utilities and Comparison Logic (Automation Components Reference Guide):

“The DateTimeUtil component provides functionality for manipulating and comparing date and time values. The component can return the result of comparing two DateTime variables as Before, Equal, or After, depending on whether the first date occurs earlier, is the same, or occurs later than the second date.”

In this automation:

firstDateToCompare = 12/31/2022

secondDateToCompare = 1/1/2022

As per Pega Robotics internal logic (based on .NET DateTime structure used within the platform):

“When two DateTime values are compared, if the first value represents a later point in time than the second value, the comparison returns ‘After’. The automation then executes the path corresponding to that result.”

Since 12/31/2022 occurs after 1/1/2022, the “After” branch executes.

That branch contains the following operation:

“The AddDays method adds the specified number of days to the current DateTime value and returns a new DateTime object that represents the resulting date and time.”

The automation adds 15 days to firstDateToCompare, resulting in:

firstDateToCompare = 1/15/2023

secondDateToCompare remains 1/1/2022 (unchanged)

Finally, the automation displays both values using the MessageDialog component.

“Use the MessageDialog component to display messages or variable values during runtime execution for verification or interaction with the user.”

Final Verified Outcome

firstDateToCompare = 1/15/2023

secondDateToCompare = 1/1/2022

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Pega Robotics System Exact Extract:

“After adding the application method, Pega Robot Studio includes the application in the Palette. External elements are not available underneath the application, such as:

Globals

Other applications

Automations that are not scoped within the application”

In other words: when you are working within an application method under a specific application (such as BankerInsight), you cannot include items from the global scope (Globals), you cannot include items from other applications (such as Pega Finance controls belong to a different application), nor can you include automations that are not scoped to the same application (automations outside BankerInsight).

Why each option is correct/incorrect:

A. Automations that are not scoped within BankerInsight — Not available (Correct). According to the extract, “Automations that are not scoped within the application” are listed as external elements that cannot be used.

B. BankerInsight controls — Available. Controls belonging to the same application are within scope, so you can use these.

C. External data sources — The documentation snippet does not explicitly list “external data sources” as unavailable under the application method. So by the extract we cannot verify it as not available — thus we do not choose it.

D. Pega Finance controls — Not available. These belong to a different application (Pega Finance), so they fall under “Other applications” which are external to the current application and so cannot be used.

E. Globals — Not available. Explicitly listed in the documentation as external elements not available underneath the application.

If you like, I can check whether “External data sources” are allowed or not in that context and provide a more detailed explanation with additional reference pages.
