DCR (Dynamic Class Referencing) using configuration sets.

Hello Frendz,

In this post, we see about #Dynamic class referencing using the configuration sets.

Starting pega 8.6 configurations sets are available in pega app studio , We can use to reference the class dynamically. In this post we see how we can create a child case using the configuration sets.

 This Demo is created by using pega version 8.6

     ·         Navigate to app studio , in left pane click on settings à Configurations à Manage Configuration

     ·         Click on manage configurations à Add the desired name , here we named it as “DCR”

     ·         Click on Add Configurations, screen will be prompted with pop up to enable the settings.

       

        

The configuration set not only to reference the class to create the case, we can make use below option in our configurations set , In Pega 8.7 we will have another one option called, “Constant as per production level”        

 In Pega 7x version we used to create Data transform, Data page, and Property to extend the referencing to other case types.  Starting 8.6 pega provided the new capabilities to refer the configurations sets to reference dynamically.

Now let’s see where these instances will be available in pega after created.

Switch to Dev studio, navigate to App explorer, click on the class Data-Configuration-Setting to see the instance

                

Now let’s see how to reference those in our case type.

Open any activity/Data transform to open the expression builder,

You will see additionally one option to see the “configurations” click on that and select your configuration set to get the reference as shown in right side.

Copy the entire value and keep it.

Now here we are going to see how to make use of that copied value into case type.

Here we have Raise Concern – Parent case, We are going to call the “Bound Up Concerns” child case by using the configuration set reference.

Used the create case step to refer the configuration set.

Now Let’s run the case and see our child case is created. As shown below it is created our child case as well.😊

Hope this example helps you in comprehending configuration sets.
