Beginner Pega Customer Decision Hub 8.8 English

Scenario

U+ Bank recently completed a project where customers who log in to their account page see credit card offers.
After login to the U+ Bank website, customers see the offers that they qualify for based on the engagement policies defined by the business.
The business team has classified the engagement policies into three groups:

• Eligibility rules, which are the "hard" rules representing what is even possible to offer.
• Applicability rules, which represent business practices that limit what to offer based on a customer's current situation but are not as "hard" as Eligibility.
• Suitability rules, which are rules that are the least "hard" but represent what the business should and should not do ethically and empathetically.

Some of the criteria apply to the entire credit card group, and some apply to specific actions. The following table contains the list of the detailed requirements to implement:

Action	Type	Condition: Customer...
All credit cards	Eligibility	is at least 18 years old or older
All credit cards	Applicability	does not have a credit card
Standard & Rewards	Eligibility	has been a customer for a maximum of 90 days
Rewards Plus & Premier Rewards	Suitability	Is not financially vulnerable

Use the following credentials to log in to the exercise system:

Your assignment consists of the following tasks:

Task 1: Verify offers on the U+ website

Troy	False	45	26	88	0	True
Barbara	False	35	32	364	0	False

Task 2: Observe the profile of customer Troy

Analyze a customer profile and interactions in Customer Profile Viewer.

Task 3: Review the Next-Best-Action Designer configurations

Detailed Tasks

1 Verify offers on the U+ website

1. On the exercise system landing page, click U+ Bank to open the website.
   
2. On the main page of the website, in the upper right, click Log in to log in as a customer.
3. In the Username field, ensure that Troy is selected.
4. Click Sign in to log in as Troy.
   
   Note: Initially, it takes time for the offer banner to display on the website. This delay occurs only on the first login. Loading of the offer is faster on subsequent logins.
5. Observe that either Standard card or Rewards card offer banner is displayed. This is the web treatment tile that is associated with the respective action.
6. In the upper right, click the profile image, and then select Log out.
   
7. Repeat steps 2-5 to log in as Barbara to verify that she sees an offer that is correct as per the engagement policy defined. Use the information in the following table for verification.

   Customer	is Customer	Debt-To-Income ratio	Age	Relationship Length	Count of Credit Card Account	is Financially Vulnerable
   Troy	False	45	26	88	0	True
   Barbara	False	35	32	364	0	False

   Note: Due to the engagement rules defined in the system, the following offers are valid for each of the customers. When you log in as a customer, one of these offers is presented.

   Customer	Standard	Rewards	Rewards Plus	Premier Rewards
   Troy	Y	Y
   Barbara			Y	Y

   Note:

   Both the customers Troy and Barbara are over the age of 18 and do not own a credit card; they satisfy the generic credit card eligibility and applicability criteria.

   Troy cannot see the Rewards Plus and Premier Rewards card offers because these offers are unsuitable as he is financially vulnerable.

   Barbara does not see the Standard and Rewards card offers as her relationship with the bank is 364 days, which does not satisfy the eligibility condition Relationship length less than or equal to 90 days.
