Pega CSA Certification - PRPC 6.1

By -
Ok! Pega CSA is my second certification. One before this was SCJP Certification in 2009, where i excelled with 89% . I know, 89% is bad considering many 90+ & 95+ or even 99+ percentiles you generally hear about. The reason was that i didn't depend on dumps. Infact, i just spared 10-12 hrs going through the dumps. But i'm happy with 89% i scored in SCJP. Fast forward to 2011 and now its Pega Certification for a Certified System Architect(CSA) . I know theres lot many CSAs out there in the Pega community. But its special for me. I was the only one being trained at my companies Hyderabad location. So, the formal class room training went for some 16 odd hours and a bit of bootcamp and a small poc compromising 5 screens and some database interaction was all that i had.

I'm really rea...

It's been some time since i'm trying to understand the case management in PRPC. The concepts of WorkList, WorkGroup, WorkBasket are most confusing if not understood with some examples. Not to criticize any, i questioned many of my friends who has decent hands on experience in PRPC. But all that i get are vague answers or should i say theoritical answers. Spending lot of time on developer help, pdn etc, here is what i understood. Before i blabber more, let me put down the definitions from PRPC here, A workbasket is a named queue of open assignments that are not associated with an operator. A workbasket is defined by an instance of the Data-Admin-WorkBasket class. A work group is an instance of the Data-Admin-WorkGroup class. A work group can identify a user who is a supervisor, and a set of workers and workbaskets that report to that supervisor. Just have a look at how work group(referred as WG further) and work basket(referred as WB further...

Exception handling in Pega Activities

By -

Exception handling in java methods can be done in many ways. We can log the reason for the exception, the respective stack trace and we can even manage to print the stack trace to your application specific logs(java does that by default though) explicitly using Reflection API or many other mechanisms. Pega also have such mechanism to exception handling in Activity rules. This can be done using standard when conditions named StepStatusGood and StepStatusFail(in @baseclass) in transitions of activities. These when conditions internally uses pxMethodStatus property to validate whether the execution of the particular step is successfull or failure. pxMethodStatus  property will be updated regulary with the status after end of each step execution and before the start of the next step execution. We also have a boolean named hasMessages which informs you whether a page contains one or more page messages. Any page which has one or more messages are treated invalid page  ...
