Updates & Insights

You asked and we listened! We’ve created a new report to enable Timekeepers, Managers, HR Analysts, and HR Partners more visibility into time tracking within their units/divisions.

Some employees will receive a payroll freeze notification after their time is approved in Workday. There are a lot of really technical reasons why this happens, but, simply put, this occurs because time entries are processed at different times by the organization based on the type of position. 

During the last pay period, many timekeepers reported they were unable to approve time for the employees they support. The team has identified the issue and corrected it. Timekeepers will now be able to utilize the Review Time task to review and approve employee time. 

Managers will notice a slight change to how time approvals are delivered to them in Workday. The system will generate a notification instead of a task when time is awaiting your approval. 

We recognize that our transition to Workday has presented challenges for employees who hold multiple positions and are expected to enter time differently for each position. This has also been a challenge for the managers and timekeepers who support them. While we don’t, today, have a perfect solution, we have heard your feedback, and we do have a few options for improving their experience and your ability to support them.

We have recently updated the requisition types for creating a purchase requisition.
