Here's the list this week! Details in description.

In Workday database structure data is organized into business objects, Object has instances and fields. Each instance represents a specific record, while each field represents a specific attribute or property of that record. For instance, Worker is a business object. Worker A and Worker B are specific instances with fields such as Job Title, Age, Gender, and Dependents. Workday links related business objects together through single instance or multi-instance fields. Related business objects enable you to access fields in a report that don’t belong to the primary business object. For example: The Dependents field within the Worker business object is a multi-instance field, meaning it can contain multiple instances of another business object called Dependent. Each Dependent instance would have its own attributes like Name, Relationship, Age, etc. This setup allows for the creation of relationships between different business objects, For example, you can access the fields belonging to the Dependent business while using it with Worker business object. More on Single/Multiple fields in the next part. #Workday #HRtransformation

During the first 5 minutes of the '#workday Basics series', the first public training provided by Workday explains the different users/personas in the ecosystem. Now, I confidently identify myself as a Business Analyst (BA). Ever found it hard to describe your job, just like me? Here is an excerpt from the session: "Business analysts configure and maintain an area, or multiple areas, of Workday. They work with business users to understand their requirements and figure out how to leverage Workday to meet those requirements. Business Analyst roles may have more functional-specific titles. For example, Financial Analyst, Human Resource Information System (HRIS) Analyst, or Payroll Analyst." - Workday Basics Series, 2024 #workdayhcm #hrtechnology #HRISAnalysts #businessanalyst
