Catching up with the Modernization Team
With the end of August coming soon, the Modernization Team is excited to introduce the resources released this month.
New Workday terms
This new handout describes three key terms for talking about beginning to use Workday, including cutover, launch, and stabilization.
Modernization hosts Grants Roadshow
The Grants group for the Modernization Team hosted roadshows with different WSU areas this July to explain how Workday will handle grants. Below are some of the main changes that will affect post-award grants management.
Introducing Workday for mobile devices
On your mobile device you can send texts, emails, and browse the internet. When Workday launches in January 2021, you’ll be able to access Workday on mobile as well.
Update on UAT
User Acceptance Testing (UAT) is off to a rapid start, with WSU community members going through scenarios to test Workday. Testers include members of the University such as Change Network Super Users. There are close to 350 testers.
Cutover: How we’ll transition to Workday
Cutover is the transition from our old systems to Workday. Cutover will include tasks like setting deadlines to enter information into old systems as well as deadlines for the replacement of old systems with Workday.
COVID-19 attestation made possible by Workday data
Attestation is the process WSU employees use to verify that they don’t have symptoms of COVID-19 before they enter a WSU work location. Employees must submit a form each time they check in to a work location.
