WorkdayFin Monthly Newsletter
June, 2024As part of the Workday Finance implementation, the change management team continuously looks for ways to provide learning opportunities for users to stay informed and prepare for the implementation. In addition to our monthly Workday Finance Wednesday sessions, bite size learnings are published monthly that provide focused, digestible content that supports users through the implementation process.
What are Bite Size Learnings?
Bite size learnings are short, targeted learning segments designed to convey specific information quickly and effectively. These one-pagers, which typically take just a few minutes to read, are crafted to provide information on larger topics – such as specific features of Workday Finance or tools for coping with anxiety around change – making them ideal for busy individuals. Bite size learnings offer just enough content to build understanding without overwhelming the reader.
It’s important to note that bite size learnings are not intended to replace comprehensive training. Rather, it complements training by providing quick insights on a topic versus being a standalone educational pathway.
Recent Workday Finance bite-size learnings include:
1. Navigating and Embracing Change in Workday Finance Implementation Implementing a new system like Workday Finance represents a significant change for any organization. This one-pager guides the reader through managing the inherent uncertainties of organizational change and understanding the necessity of business process changes.
2. Due to/Due from Accounting: In Workday Finance, we are moving from an entity structure to a multi-company structure that will make Due to/Due from Accounting more visible to end users. This one-pager offers a basic overview of what is Due to/Due from Accounting, the benefits, and key facts.
Use this time to tidy up. If there are any accounts you've stopped using or have a deficit balance, now's the time to request closure. This cleanup will simplify the transition and help you start afresh in the new system.
