Unveiling Pega PRPC: Build and Manage Automated Workflows
When we are using PRPC in Pega , it is beneficial to know the minimum basic terminology.
OOTB (Out of the Box->Build-in)
The Pega Rules Process Commander (PRPC) Environment is a platform for developing and managing BPM and CRM applications.?
PRPC is an application development environment provided by Pega. First, it is an application to develop business process management applications using its ready-made functionalities. Additionally, business applications are developed with no coding required for business logic or database queries.
Furthermore, the development is carried out through a model-driven approach. In other words, the entire application is designed using visual models and configurations. Consequently, there is no need for traditional coding or programming. Moreover, this model-driven approach enables rapid application development and deployment. In summary, PRPC provides a low-code/no-code platform for developing business process management applications quickly and efficiently.
This environment contains some common business functions, like OOTB rules. Some functionalities are like “send email notification,” “commit with error handling,” etc.
We would be using these functionalities in the concepts.
Now then, we can log in to PEGA using the default credentials.
User name: administrator@pega.com
Password: install (all lower case)
Next, Login Screen, Come back to the login screen.
Next look at the technical terminology in simple layman’s words.
Operator ID: The login ID or user name we use to login to the PRPC environment enables us to access its applications.
Operator: Is the person or user who logs in to PRPC to access its application?
On the top left, we can see the application, and there we can see the Pega platform (the name of the application is Pega Rules).
First, when we use the credentials administrator@pega.com, PRPC takes the operator to a built-in application called “pegaRules.”
Next, let’s see how to create a new framework and implement an application. However, the application that we are going to create has the following structure:
So, we create a framework application on top of the Pega platform, whereas we create an implementation application on top of the above framework application.
