PEGACPSA88V1 Certified Pega System Architect (V8.8) Questions and Answers

The Constellation design system is a set of UI/UX templates, patterns, and components that enable faster and easier development of Pega applications. It improves context switching or multitasking by allowing users to work on multiple tasks in parallel using dynamic containers and tabs. It also uses a modular design that enables reuse and customization of UI elements across applications.

To meet the requirement, you can add an Identify service animal process within the Travel booking case life cycle and apply a condition to determine when to run the process. The condition can be based on a property that indicates whether the passenger is traveling with a service animal or not.

These two statements about data records are true. Data records are values for the fields that are associated with a specific data object, such as a customer or a product. Data records need unique user-generated IDs to identify each record in the data object. Data records define permissible values for data fields, which limit the input values to valid options, reduce errors, and allow for automation.

To meet this requirement, you need to set the deadline in the service level to 3 days. The deadline defines when to take action because a step or case is past due. The deadline interval is measured from when an assignment is ready for a user. References: https://academy.pega.com/topic/deadline-interval/v1

To implement this requirement, you can add an Approve /Reject step and enable approval from email and mobile. This way, sales managers can approve sales quote proposals by clicking a link in an email or by using their mobile devices.

To enforce these restrictions when requesting an instant loan, you can use a single Validate rule with two conditions one for income and one for credit card debt. A Validate rule is a rule that tests property values for errors or omissions during case processing. You can define multiple conditions in a Validate rule to check whether the property values meet your business requirements. References: https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/case-management/86/validating-case-data

To configure the account information page, you can select Copy from a data page on the page property. This option copies the data from the data page to the clipboard page when the case is created and does not update it when the case is further processed. A data page is a rule that defines how and when to load data into memory for use by an application.

 This option requires you to configure distinct mobile app channels because it involves customizing the look and feel of the mobile app for different user groups. A mobile app channel is a configuration layer that defines how users interact with your application on mobile devices. You can create multiple mobile app channels for different user groups or personas and apply different branding, security, or functionality settings to each channel.

To display the required information as described, you can add a repeating dynamic layout with embedded dynamic layouts and add the total cost outside the repeating dynamic layout. A repeating dynamic layout is a UI element that displays data from a list or table source in various formats, such as cards, grids, or inline grids. You can embed dynamic layouts within a repeating dynamic layout to organize and present data in different sections or columns. You can add the total cost outside the repeating dynamic layout to display it at the bottom of the view.

 These two requirements ensure that valid data is used in a case. The data fits the business logic means that the data values are consistent with the rules and conditions that define the case behavior and outcome. The data is the correct field type means that the data values match the expected format and structure of the field properties, such as text, number, date, or email.

This statement about configuring application access is true. An access group is a rule that defines the roles and permissions that users have in an application. An access group can list more than one role, but the system uses the most restrictive setting when there is a conflict between roles. For example, if one role allows creating a case and another role denies creating a case, the system denies creating a case for users who belong to both roles. References: https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/security/86/access-groups

You should consider using a field value when the list of allowed values is mostly static or shared across all case types. A field value is a rule that defines a single value for a field that is used in multiple places in an application. Field values are useful when the list of values does not change frequently or when the same values are used in different case types. References: https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/data-management-and-integration/86/field-values

This statement about responsive breakpoints is true. Responsive breakpoints are points at which the layout of a UI element changes based on the screen size or orientation of the device. By default, tables have two responsive breakpoints: one for tablet devices and one for phone devices. You can configure custom responsive breakpoints for other UI elements in App Studio. References: https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/user-experience/88/configuring-responsive-breakpoints

To populate a test page with valid data before testing the rule, you can run a data transform to create the test page or copy data from an existing clipboard page. A data transform is a rule that defines how to convert data that is in one format and class (the source) into data of another format and class (the target). The clipboard is a temporary memory area on the server that stores property values for your application.

To configure a solution that requires approvals from the requestor’s manager, division VP, and possibly an accountant based on the total amount, you can use cascading approval using the reporting manager. This model uses a reporting structure to determine who approves a case based on their position in an organizational chart. You can also use a condition to include an accountant in the approval chain if the total amount exceeds a certain threshold. References: https://academy.pega.com/topic/cascading-approval/v1
