case type. case.
A _________ is a work party, and typically, a case is initiated by or on behalf of a customer.
customer
A ______ ______ is a collection of entities and attributes that describes the objects modeled in an application, and their relationship to each other.
data model
A case type’s data model defines the data ________ for the case.
structure
In Pega 7, data elements are called ________ or fields.
properties
System architects typically work with two types of property modes: value modes and page modes. ______ modes describe a single piece of information such as a total. _____ modes describe a data object such as a customer
Value. Page.
Use _____ mode for properties with no correlation to other properties. For example, the identifier and date in the purchase request are value mode properties.
value
A ______ value property - stores text, numbers, dates, Boolean values, and amounts.
single
A value _____ acts as a container for an ordered list of text values. The discount codes property is an example of a value list. Each code is a single piece of information, but a clear relationship exists between the codes.
list
A value _____ acts as a container for an unordered list of text values. The customer’s phone numbers are defined as a value group identifying the contextual meaning of each number: home, work, or mobile.
group
If you need to establish a __________ relationship between single value properties, you can use one of the three page-mode properties: pages, page lists, and page groups.
contextual
A _____ is a single entity. The customer is an example of a page property.
page
A page list is a _________ ordered list. The line items that make up the purchase request is an example of a page list.
numerically
A page group is a ________ ordered list. The address property is an example of a page group.
semantically
Use the ____ ______ to add or remove data types. Always check if a suitable data type is _______ before creating a new one.
Data Explorer. available.
Use a _______ if you need to display a static list of options to the user.
picklist
The _____ type (field control) allows you to provide the capability to upload an attachment, show a location on a map, or reference a user on the system.
fancy
Use the _______ (field control) types to define page and page list properties. A field group is a page and a field group (list) is a page list.
complex
The context of a page — by itself or as part of a page list or page group — acts as a _______ for the properties it contains. If you want the city in the work address, specify .Address(Work).City.
container
You can call a data transform from a ____ _____ rule or from a connector.
flow action.
You can use special data transform rules — pyDefault or pySetFieldDefaults — to _______ property values when creating a case.
initialize
You can combine several data transforms using the _________ feature to set values at multiple levels of the class hierarchy.
superclass
You can use the ________ feature in a data transform to set values at different levels in the class hierarchy.
superclass
You must select the ____ superclass data transform option to cause the system to invoke data transforms of the same name in parent and child classes before the data transform gets invoked itself.
Call
In _________ processing, when a user enters a property value in a form, related values on the same form or on other forms can change as a result. The application must make the changes automatically so that users see the most current information.
declarative
The primary benefit of declarative processing is that updates occur only when triggered in the application. You use declarative rules to define the ______ _____.
trigger event
____________ processing depends upon rules, such as data transforms, activities, or user interface (UI) rules, to instruct the application when to look for a trigger event. When a user enters values, nothing changes until the user submits the form. The updates are not automatic.
Procedural
You most often use _______ expressions to calculate and make immediate updates to property values on user forms.
declare
________ chaining in a declare expression updates the target property value when a source property value changes. When you display a shopping cart where users add items to it and the cart should reflect the total based on the changes immediately, choose this method.
Forward
By default, declare expressions use ________ chaining.
forward
(Declarative networks are commonly designed with declare expressions that are configured for forward chaining.)
________ chaining in a declare expression means that a target property value is not automatically updated when other declare expressions in a network update their target values. An expression using this chaining only updates its target property when the application references the property by name.
Backward
________ chaining can slow system performance if an expression uses many source properties that change frequently.
Forward
To reduce the number of calculations in order to optimize performance, how would you configure the declare expressions?
backward chaining
To update the calculation in a declare expression, you only update ___ ____ making the application easier to maintain.
one rule
When using a declare expression, the system _______ input properties and determines when to update the target property value.
monitors
A data transform uses _______ logic to determine which data should be propagated.
conditional
Each data element in a Pega application is a pairing of two pieces of information: the ____ of the data element, and the _____ assigned to the data element.
name. value.
A ____ is a structure for organizing data elements in an application. Some pages are created by the system to track user or session data. Other pages are created by system architects to describe a data object, such as a hotel reservation or a customer.
page
All the data generated as you create and process a case is stored on ________, which is a specific page on the clipboard.
pyWorkPage
Data that describes a data type is stored on an ________ page within pyWorkPage.
embedded
When you open a child case, the clipboard also contains the page _________. This contains the case data for the parent case. This allows you to copy data between the parent case and the child case.
pyWorkCover
The ____ Pages category contains pages created due to user action, either directly or indirectly. These pages contain data related to work being performed in the selected thread.
User
The ____ Pages category contains read-only data pages defined by data page rules. These pages are persistent pages in memory, used to cache data. This data is often sourced from outside the application, such as from a third-party or a system of record.
Data
The _______ Pages category contains pages that describe the current user session, such as the active user and the active application. For example, while a user is logged in to Pega, Pega maintains a clipboard page containing information about the user, such as their current time zone.
System
A ______ page is a presentation of one or more tabs or tools. Each tab provides information or tools that assist a business analyst, system architect, or system admin in designing, building, and maintaining applications.
landing
_______ are guidelines that help developers achieve project success, optimal performance, reuse, and maintainability for applications.
Guardrails
________ ______ is a web-based integrated development environment that you use to build applications.
Designer Studio
An __________ menu in Designer Studio, is identified by the name of the current application. This menu allows users to switch between applications, work pools, or create a new application.
application
The _________ Explorer is a tool that you can use to quickly access records in the current and built-on applications that are available to your operator. These records are organized by work pool, case type, category, and record type.
Application
An ______ group restricts access to functionality within your application.
access
The ____ type is the class a rule belongs to, or is an instance of, and must be a concrete class derived from teh Rule- base class.
