Updates to accepted file types in Workday for Expense Reports and more
Modernization has updated the guidance surrounding the types of files accepted as supporting documentation for Spend Authorizations and Expense Reports. In addition to PDFs, other file types such as JPGs, JPEGs, and PNGs can now be attached.
A previous condition was in place restricting the accepted file type for supporting documentation for the Expense Report process to PDFs only. To ensure the full utilization of the available Workday functionality, we have updated the information in Workday and within the related reference guides to no longer include this restriction.
We’ve also created a new reference guide providing detailed information on the various file types which can be uploaded to Workday, how to upload a file, and which file types are preferred for certain processes. For example, file type help for grants business processes and job applications or changes.
Questions about the new reference guide or changes to accepted file types in Workday may be submitted via the Workday Service Desk. For questions about the preferred file types for specific processes, contact the central unit processing the action.
