Each year, two major releases are implemented to Workday in March and September. Workday, UA Little Rock’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, is used to manage day-to-day business activities for the campus.
Workday’s latest release arrived March 9! Each Workday release contains new features and enhancements that are either automatically available or may be opted-in with set-up required. The release guide provides details for both automatically available and opt-in features which include important training updates. This guide is accessible to UA System employees only.
The following are a few of the significant changes to Workday apps that are included in the March release:
- Smart Summaries – provides managers with a quick overview of their team’s upcoming absence without having to navigate to a dashboard or report.
- Announcement Placement – relocated to the top of the page enables users to display important information.
- My Tasks – redesigned and enhanced task management solution that replaces Inbox includes renaming of tasks, reports, and fields.
- Career – users must add the Jobs Hub app to see jobs.
- Quick Tasks – were removed from the homepage.
