Which of the following rule types would normally NOT be delegated to business users?
-
Rule-Declare-DecisionTable
-
Rule-Obj-MapValue
-
Rule-Obj-Activity
-
Rule-Declare-DecisionTree
Activities (Rule-Obj-Activity) contain complex logic and code that should not be delegated to business users. Decision tables, decision trees, and map values are designed for business user delegation as they provide visual, rule-based interfaces without code.
In Pega's rule-delegation model, rule types meant for business users to configure are typically declarative and presentation-oriented - decision tables (Rule-Declare-DecisionTable), decision trees (Rule-Declare-DecisionTree), and map-value lookups (Rule-Obj-MapValue) all use simple tabular or condition-based UIs that don't require programming knowledge, so they're commonly delegated. An Activity (Rule-Obj-Activity), by contrast, is essentially Pega's procedural/Java-backed scripting rule type used to implement business logic in a code-like sequence of steps - it requires technical skill to write and maintain safely, so Pega's own governance guidance recommends keeping activities restricted to developers rather than delegating them to business users.
