Pega Sales Automation for Financial Services data model

Updated on September 10, 2021

The Pega Sales Automation for Financial Services™ data model consists of a set of standard business objects that support the sales process. The business objects have unique attributes, for example, account numbers, contact names, or operator IDs, and they interact with other business objects as they move through the sales life cycle.

Pega Sales Automation for Financial Services includes the following business objects:

  • Account
  • Activity
  • Appointment
  • Contact
  • Household
  • Lead
  • Opportunity
  • Organization
  • Task
  • Goals

Business objects depend on the selling mode that you select for your implementation. In Pega Sales Automation for Financial Services, you can use the following selling modes:

  • Business-to-business (B2B) – if you are selling products and services to other businesses.
  • Business-to-consumer (B2C) – if you are selling products and services directly to individual consumers.
  • Mixed mode – if you are selling products to both individual consumers and to other businesses.
