User Experience

Hi,

In Clipboard, we have 4 categories of pages viz User Pages, Data Pages, Linked property pages and System pages. Also I came across a whole lot of sub pages: pyPrimary page, pywork page, parametrer page, declare pages, newAssignPage and so on.

Now, there are temporary pages and top level or primary pages that get created/refreshed as per the open threads. My questions are:

1.How to differentitate which pages are temporary and which page persists on Clipboard under the 4 categories of Clipboard?

  1. How are User pages created and what are they refreshed, created or deleted?

Hi many things in one question.

Clipboard is temporary memory space. so, when a user logs into the system. i.e., to an application. all the data related to it will now available in clipboard.

Like operator ID details will be available in the system pages, access groups in system pages. and so on.

when a user tests any rule that data will be available in the user pages.

when the user creates a case does some action in the portal that will be available in the user pages.

but now sometimes user may fetch the data from another application, or some database then will it be user Pages the answer is yes but as it is referred from SOR (data base app) which is retrieved using data pages then this is also added in the data pages.

Still if you have any doubts, please visit the links shared by BhumiReddy.

Hi @Bhumireddy

I went through the pega documentation links you’ve sent, thank you for that.

  1. I get the idea that UserPages are permanent while data in some UserPages maybe refreshed as per the open threads, even while in Standard thread. Also, data pages always persist in the clipboard. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

  2. Is pyWork page a temporary page? What other pages are temporarily created in Clipboard?

Hi @SivaniP

  1. In Data Pages we have different types of modes are available each mode data saving in different Pages

Read only : - These Data Pages gets created on clipboard under ‘Data Pages”.

These can not be updated or deleted. We go for read only mode, when data should not be manipulated by business users.

Editable : These Data Pages gets created on clipboard under ‘User Pages”. We go for these mode when the data retrieved has to be manipulated by the business users.

Savable : This data page is required when we want to insert or update the data into table. These can be updated or deleted

  1. pyWorkPage is memory we should store what are the important and not temporary data and Contains the work object id or case id information. all related to the case data will there in pyWorkPage, If you are open any case instance from the a particular class that particular work object data will present in the pyWorkPage, if normally open the clip board the pyWorkPage not visible in Clipboard under UserPages.

What ever data available in pyWorkPage Pega automatically commit to Data base

I hope this will help you.

Thanks,

Ashok
