Providing an innovative add-on feature to the existing Pega Wizards that provides a quick and automated solution Streamlining a process to collate and delete all the non-versioned rules needed an extensive analysis and brainstorming. where we just have to delete our application specific records alone while retaining the records pertaining to other applications in the shared environment. We had to spend a lot of time to analyze the identification of common tables like worklist, workbasket, attachments, events etc. Finally the application rule is also deleted Delete Non-Version Rules like Work Queue, DSS, Access Group, Class, etc.Delete Rulesets present in the application stack.Delete OOTB Table Records specific to the application being deleted from common tables like Assign-Worklist, Assign-Workbasket etc.Drop DB Tables specific to the application.The following processes are performed automatically in the specified sequence: The application is created using Pega App Studio. The solution is built using Pega 8.7 version, Theme Cosmos: 04-01 utilizing the Pega Case Management, Workflow Automation and User Interface.
#Information not provided in new application wizard in pega manual
To address the above problems, we built a Wizard using Pega Workflow Automation which automates the entire application deletion process seamlessly reducing a lot of manual effort, saving time and improving the accuracy. After this, we would be spending a lot of manual effort in analysis cleanup process would be completely manual which might not be 100% accurate. Later, when the actual production server is available, we would be taking the backup of the application from previous environment and re-deploy to the new server. Similarly, if we have any Pega application that needs to be deployed to production before a dedicated server is ready, we might have been using another available server to deploy the production ready application so that the end-users can start using the application without delay. Today while designing any POC application in one of the existing servers, we do not have any automated process for cleaning up the Pega environment once the POC has been completed. We wanted to add one more feature to this wizard which would simplify the process of decommissioning Pega application. These wizards have helped us save a significant amount of time, thus improving productivity.

Many a times, we have used OOTB Pega Wizards for importing products, renaming or refactoring classes, deleting rulesets etc.
