Question 1

What does a dotted line from a "Group By" component to a "Filter" component mean?

  • A. There is a one-to-one relationship between the "Group By" and the "Filter" components.
  • B. To evaluate the "Group By" component, the "Filter" component is evaluated first.
  • C. A property from the "Group By" is referenced by the “Filter" component.
  • D. Information from the "Group By" is copied over to the "Filter" component.
Answer:

C


Explanation:
A dotted line from a “Group By” component to a “Filter” component means that a property from the
“Group By” is referenced by the “Filter” component. For example, if you group customers by age and
then filter them by average spending, you need to reference a property from the “Group By”
component, such as .pxSegment, in the “Filter” component. A dotted line does not indicate a one-to-
one relationship, an evaluation order, or a copying of information between components

Question 2

In a decision strategy, to use a customer property in an expression, you

  • A. define the property as a strategy property
  • B. define Customer page in Pages & Classes
  • C. use the property as defined without any prefix
  • D. prefix the property with the keyword Customer
Answer:

B


Explanation:
In a decision strategy, to use a customer property in an expression, you need to define Customer
page in Pages & Classes and specify its class as Data-Customer. This allows you to access customer
properties by using dot notation, such as Customer.Age or Customer.Gender. You do not need to
define the property as a strategy property, use it without any prefix, or prefix it with the keyword
Customer. Verified Reference: [Certified Pega Decisioning Consultant | Pega Academy], Decision

Question 4


U+ Bank wants to offer credit cards only to low-risk customers. The customers are divided into
various risk segments from Good to Very Poor. The risk segmentation rules that the business
provides use the Average Balance and the customer Credit Score.
As a decisioning architect, you decide to use a decision table and a decision strategy to accomplish
this requirement in Pega Customer Decision Hub™.
Using the decision table, which label is returned for a customer with a credit score of 240 and an
average balance 35000?

  • A. Very Poor
  • B. Good
  • C. Fair
  • D. Poor
Answer:

D


Explanation:
Using the decision table, you can find the label for a customer with a credit score of 240 and an
average balance of 35000 by following these steps:
Start from the top row and check if the customer’s credit score is less than 150. If yes, then the label
is Very Poor. If no, then move to the next row.
Check if the customer’s credit score is less than 175 and their average balance is less than 25000. If
yes, then the label is Poor. If no, then move to the next row.
Check if the customer’s credit score is less than 200 and their average balance is less than 50000. If
yes, then the label is Fair. If no, then move to the next row.
Check if the customer’s credit score is less than 250 and their average balance is less than 75000. If
yes, then the label is Good. If no, then move to the last row.
The last row applies to all other cases that do not match any of the previous conditions. The label for
this row is Very Poor.
In this case, the customer’s credit score is not less than 150, so the first row does not apply. The
customer’s credit score is less than 175, but their average balance is not less than 25000, so the
second row does not apply either. The customer’s credit score is not less than 200, so the third row
does not apply. The customer’s credit score is less than 250 and their average balance is less than
75000, so the fourth row applies. Therefore, the label for this customer is Poor.

Question 10

U+ Bank wants to offer credit cards only to customers with a low-risk profile. The customers are
divided into various risk segments from AAA to CCC. The risk segmentation rules that the business
provides use the Age and the customer Credit Score based on the following table. The bank uses a
scorecard model to determine the customer Credit Score.

As a decisioning architect, how do you implement the business requirement?

  • A. Add a decision table to a decision strategy and reference it in the scorecard component.
  • B. Add the risk segmentation rules in the Results tab of the scorecard rule.
  • C. Add three contact policies that correspond to the three risk segments.
  • D. Add a decision table to a decision strategy and pass the credit score as the parameter.
Answer:

D


Explanation:
To implement the business requirement, you need to add a decision table to a decision strategy and
pass the credit score as the parameter. A decision table allows you to define rules based on one or
more input parameters and return an output value. In this case, you can use the credit score as an
input parameter and return the risk category/grade as an output value. You can then use this output
value to filter out customers who are not in the low-risk segment (AAA). Verified Reference:
