I would say 80% of my client conversations this year - and vacancies - have been on Workday 𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒈𝒐 𝒍𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒔𝒖𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕❗ Following the releases of Workday Launch 🚀, Accelerate etc 🚤, Workday deployments have been next level! 𝑯𝑶𝑾𝑬𝑽𝑬𝑹 these rapid deployments are creating a skills gap, organizations are not set up quick enough to utilize the system, Internal staff are struggling to use it, all the shiny updates are not being utilized because the foundations of functions, processes and integrations are not set up properly. A bit like buying a big shiny car with no driving license!! 🚗🤯 We have been placing multiple 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐒 to work closely with our clients internal teams, working closely with them to customize the system to work to THEIR needs. Adalta Global Inc. can provide agile support, working with our clients budgets to instantly solve these shorter term pain points❗ Adalta Global Inc. have also been placing several 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒 and 𝐒𝐫 𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒 Analysts to work on site/hybrid within our clients organizations to manage the day to day operations of the Workday platform, perform all updates, security checks, troubleshooting and solve internal user issues that ,without this person, would need to be done by a costly external firm. 💰💵 If your organization is looking for the above resource and is feeling the Workday post implementation pain, reach out to see how Adalta Global Inc. can support! #workday #workdaylaunch #workdayimplementation #workdaycontractors #workdaystaffing #workdayjobs #workdaycommunity

Building upon some previous posts where I touched on the subject on governance in Workday in regards to Workday Security. We configured routing for Security Roles on our Assign Roles Business Process of what is deemed to require additional approval. Not all security roles are listed here because that is too much governance and it hinders productivity. An example, is the manager role on a supervisory organization. If you have a large volume internal movement like us, this is not feasible to add to your list. On this Business Process, I enhanced our BP to account for the "Role Maintainer". I detailed on the attached carousel the configuration around this, and how to streamline all required routing to the appropriate approving security group, which houses our HRIS Manager. Holler with questions or comment to add to the discussion!

Always important for headcount and workforce planning is an understanding of the broader demographic changes taking place. What states are growing what states are declining? If I'm in a state where workers are exiting, how should I adjust my strategy? Can I hire remote? hybrid? Do I need to rethink plans for building or buying infrastructure? It also might have implications for your product or service. What markets and geographies should I invest in? What markets are looking risky?

"Building a report before you have real data to work with, test, etc., can be a waste of time because you are just guessing what the data will look like, what filters and prompts you will need, etc. Duplicating your legacy reports can be helpful but can also waste time. Because Workday works differently than your legacy systems, some legacy reports will be irrelevant. Or, one report in Workday, with the appropriate prompts and filters, can replace multiple legacy reports." -Keith Bitikofer As I read through Keith's post, I was saying "YES!" to everything in here. From switching from working at an implementation partner to working on the school side of Workday Student implementations, I learned so much about reporting. For example, it is quite hard to build a good registration report when you don't have thousands of students adding, dropping, waitlisting courses. It's impossible to simulate that during an implementation. Talking to peer schools who have already gone live is one of the best places to start when figuring out what reports you need and what will work best.
