Certified Pega Business Architect (CPBA) v7.3 — Question 14

A home loan application requires approvals from the Legal team manager and the Finance team manager. The Legal team manager must approve before the
Finance team manager.
How do you configure this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Create an approval step with cascading approval.
• B. Apply business logic to route a single assignment in the correct order.
• C. Route an assignment to a work queue where both roles have access.
• D. Create an approval process for each manager in parallel.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, establishes a cascading approval step that ensures the Legal team manager approves first, followed by the Finance team manager. Option B suggests using business logic, but it doesn't guarantee the sequence required. Option C fails to enforce the order of approvals, and option D allows both managers to approve at the same time, which contradicts the specified requirement.
