Scenario

Stakeholders have requested two features involving Data Transforms. Before a Service Case is resolved, the system must copy the Service total from the Service Case to the parent Assistance Request Case. Also, the Service type field must default to Flat tire to reduce the time spent filling out the average Assistance Request Case.

To assist you, a more senior System Architect used Dev Studio to create the Update services total Data Transform so that the Data Transform can access the parent Assistance Request Case.

Note: The framework of this challenge uses the Constellation architecture of Pega Platform™.

The following table provides the credentials you need to complete the challenge:

Role User name Password
Application Developer author@gogoroad pega123!
Note: Your practice environment may support the completion of multiple challenges. As a result, the configuration shown in the challenge walkthrough may not match your environment exactly.

You must initiate your own Pega instance to complete this Challenge.

Initialization may take up to 5 minutes so please be patient.
