Use Get last error -action

This is how I have set up error handling usually:
Error block has OnError variable that it sets True if it goes to error. If error happens flow goes to the begining of the error block.
Then at the begining is Get last error -action. And then there is If statement that checks if OnError is true. And if it is then it increases error count. If errorCount is 3 then it adds that error info to error data table

When you set variable like you do Template to %System_Exceptions% there needs to be that variable (System_Exceptions) initialized in your flow. Do you have that? If not then that will not work since you are trying to set a value of variable that doesn't exist.
There is no error variable if you haven't made one. So I suggest you use the Get Last error in the beginning of the On Error block.
~~Also I think you need to change to "Continue flow run" and not "Throw error" if you don't want the flow to stop when error happens~~. (acutally maybe not since you use run subflow)
Add the Get Last error into your Subflow as first action.
