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 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.
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.
Workday will allow employees to see their Supervisory Organization – or organizational chart. Organizational charts provide an interactive view of the personnel structure in a work area or department.

Workday will replace many of our current systems. Since some processes will still take place outside of Workday, they may require an integration between that system and Workday. An integration is the shift of data between two systems. Integration connects Workday with an external system to ensure consistent information is shared while also automating workflow.
The next installment of the 5 Major Changes series is here: Reporting. Reporting will undergo several changes when WSU transitions to Workday in January 2021. Here are some of the changes you can look forward to:

The Modernization Readiness Poll measured general awareness and understanding of the project among faculty, graduate students, and staff. The results encouraged the Modernization team to focus on increasing awareness and understanding […]
New terminology will be applied to some of the processes that are moving from our current systems to Workday. For example, Internal Service Delivery is the Workday term for internal billing.
The Change Network consists of more than 400 members who work to bridge the gap between the Modernization Initiative and the WSU community. The Change Network is here to help you transition to Workday. To learn more about the Change Network, you can view our new video below.
