Certified Pega System Architect v7.2 — Question 8

An application allows bank customers to apply for a credit card. During the process of applying for the credit card, customers can elect to transfer a balance to the card.
The bank currency offers three balance transfer options for customers applying for a new credit card:
1. 0 percent interest for 6 months.
2. 2.9 percent interest for 12 months.
3. 3.9 percent interest for 24 months.
The bank requires that customers first elect whether to transfer a balance. If customers elect to transfer a balance, they must select one of the three options.
Which control allows you to display all the balance transfer offers on the form, but only allows the customer to select one offer?

Answer options

• A. Radio buttons
• B. Check box
• C. Picklist
• D. Text area

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Picklist, as it allows the user to view multiple options but restricts selection to one. Radio buttons could also allow one selection but do not fit the context of a dropdown list. Check boxes enable multiple selections, which is not suitable here, and a text area is not applicable for selecting from predefined options.
