Workday Information You Need for Go Live and Beyond

The time is finally here! Workday Platform is now live for ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú. As we embark on this next chapter of the University, we thought it would be helpful to publish again what you will need to know on day 1, and over the course of the first few weeks.

Important Items for the first month of Workday

There are a few very important items regarding Workday that we want to make you aware of as Workday moves into production.

  1. Emergency Contact Information was not transferred from Banner to Workday. Each employee will need to add their Emergency contact information to Workday. Within your Workday Profile choose the Contact option and then use the Emergency Contacts tab.
  2. Salaried employees did not have absence information in their Workday Employee Profile for the first few weeks of July. This has been completed, and all employees should now be able to view their absence information.
  3. Hourly employees did not have absence information in their Workday Employee Profile for the first week of July. This has been completed, and all employees should now be able to view their absence information.
  4. Both Salaried and Hourly employees needed to wait until after their absence information was present in Workday before requesting absences in Workday. Absence information is now showing in Workday, so you can now submit absence requests in Workday for all of July and future dates.

Go Live Checklist

We have created a Go Live Checklist for all employees. This list of helpful hints and suggestions will guide employees through those first couple of days when using the new Workday Platform tools.

The checklist includes information that you should review for accuracy, like your profile information, direct deposit information, and professional information. It also includes tasks you should be performing in Workday, like time entry for hourly staff (after 7/5), creating time off requests (after balances are available), updating your W-4 tax elections (if needed).  The Checklist also includes references to the helpful ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú job aids and contact information.

To view the entire form, please visit the Go Live Checklist.

Workday Support Now and Future

Now that Workday is live at ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú, it is important for you to be aware of how you can get assistance if you need it.

The best option for getting help with Workday is to enter a ticket using our support ticketing system TeamDynamix (TDX). Simply go to ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉúOH.edu/WorkdaySupport and complete the form. Your issue will be triaged and addressed as quickly as possible.
