To implement this requirement, you need to configure a dynamic template in Customer Decision Hub. A dynamic template is a type of template that allows you to define a common action flow pattern for a group of actions that share similar characteristics, such as channel, issue, or group. You can specify which properties and components are required for each action in the group, and how they are mapped to the action flow template. This way, you can reuse the same action flow template for all the credit card actions, while still allowing some variations in their content and configuration.

To select the best offer from both groups based on customer behavior, you need to ensure that the propensity is enabled in Arbitration tab. Propensity is a measure of how likely a customer is to accept an offer, based on their past behavior and profile. By enabling propensity in Arbitration tab, you can compare the propensities of different offers across groups and select the one with the highest propensity as the next best action.

Paul cannot see the Reward card offer because he rejected other credit card offers twice on the web channel and once in contact center in the past 15 days. This triggers the first contact policy that suppresses a group of credit card offers for 30 days if any credit card offer is rejected three times in any channel in the past 15 days. The Reward card offer is part of the credit card group, so it is suppressed for Paul for 30 days. The second contact policy that suppresses the Reward card offer for 7 days if it is rejected twice in any channel in the last 7 days does not apply because Paul did not reject the Reward card offer twice in any channel in the last 7 days.

• The second row has black text on a white background.
• The second row reads “Standard card”, “Return any action that does not exceed”, “100”, and “Daily”.
• The table has a gray border and a light blue background.

Increasing stage upweighting is a feature that allows you to gradually increase the weight of a stage over time, making the offers in that stage more likely to be selected. This is useful for promoting offers that are time-sensitive or have a limited availability. In this case, the bank wants to actively increase offers promotion over time, so enabling increasing stage upweighting for the second stage of the journey, where the offers are presented, is the best option.

To implement this requirement, you need to create an external email treatment and use an external tool to design the email. An external email treatment is a type of treatment that allows you to use a third-party email service provider to send emails to your customers. You can configure the external email treatment with the name of the provider, the authentication details, and the template ID that corresponds to the email content that you design using an external tool. This way, you can leverage your existing tools and processes for sending emails, while still using Customer Decision Hub to select the best actions and treatments for your customers.

CUST-05 receives the Diamond card offer because it is the only action that does not exceed the volume constraint for the email channel. The Silver card offer has already reached its limit of 2 emails per day, so it is not eligible for CUST-05. The volume constraint mode Return any action that does not exceed means that any action that meets the eligibility and suitability criteria and does not violate the volume constraint will be returned, even if there are other actions with higher priority or propensity.

The outbound run delivers 75 emails and 25 SMSes for the Standard card offer because the volume constraint is set to limit the number of actions per channel per day. The email channel has a limit of 75 actions per day, so all 75 email offers are delivered. The SMS channel has a limit of 25 actions per day, so only 25 SMS offers are delivered. The remaining 50 SMS offers are not delivered because they exceed the volume constraint.

Pega Customer Decision Hub always selects and prioritizes the most relevant and valuable action for each customer at any given moment, regardless of whether the action is part of a journey or not. A journey is a way to group and organize actions that are related to a common business objective or customer need, but it does not override the Next-Best-Action strategy that determines the best action for each customer. Therefore, if a customer receives an offer that is not included in any journey, it means that the offer is more suitable and beneficial for the customer than any other offer in the journey.

The Next-Best-Action strategy is a customer-centric approach that aims to deliver the most relevant and valuable proposition for each customer at any given moment. You can use the Next-Best-Action strategy to address various business issues that involve customer interactions, such as service, retention, and collections. Service is the process of providing assistance and support to customers who have questions or problems. Retention is the process of preventing customers from leaving or switching to competitors. Collections is the process of recovering unpaid debts from customers who are delinquent or defaulting on their obligations. These are all business issues that can benefit from using the Next-Best-Action strategy. Verified References: [Pega Decisioning Consultant | Pega Academy]

A customer might receive an action that they already accepted if the volume constraint for that action is not configured to exclude previously accepted offers. This option can be enabled by selecting the Exclude previously accepted actions checkbox in the volume constraint configuration. The action suitability conditions are used to determine whether an action is suitable for a customer based on their propensity, priority, or other criteria, not based on their previous responses. The suppression rules are used to exclude customers from receiving an action based on certain conditions, such as opt-out preferences or recent purchases, not based on their previous responses. The actions are filtered based on eligibility before applying the volume constraints, so this option does not explain why a customer might receive an action that they already accepted.

To introduce a new group of offers called Tablets for all customers, you need to create valid actions that represent propositions that you want to present to your customers. In this case, two valid actions are Netflix subscription for 12 months and 5% discount on the price. These are examples of benefits or incentives that can attract customers to buy tablets from MyCo. Tablet serial number and tablet operating system are not valid actions because they are not propositions that can be offered to customers; they are attributes or features of the tablets themselves.

According to the best practice, a single change request should be created in the 1:1 Operations Manager portal, because both changes are related to the engagement policies and propositions that are managed in this portal. The Pega Customer Decision Hub portal is used to design and test the decision strategies, not the engagement policies and propositions.

Suppression rules are used to prevent customers from seeing offers that are not relevant or appropriate for them. For example, if a customer already has a higher value card, they should not see a lower value card offer. Therefore, suppression rules are the most likely condition that prevents Anna from seeing the new Rewards card offer. Verified References: [Pega Decisioning Consultant | Pega Academy]
