Scenario

For Phase 2 of the application, a basic organizational structure for MyTown must be set up within Pega Robot Manager™. The structure allows users to complete QA testing with an attended robotic desktop automations (RDA) solution. MyTown has a primary Customer Service department that contains multiple sub-departments, including Water and Sewer and Parks and Recreation. The Water and Sewer sub-department contains another sub-department named Water Service, which allows the routing of work to users that work only on Water Service matters.
