Inclement Weather Time Entry for Non-Exempt Hourly Employees
In case of inclement weather and university-declared closures, please follow these steps for accurate time recording in Workday:
-
Working from Home: If you were able to work remotely, enter "Worked Time" as usual. No additional Inclement Weather entries are needed.
-
Ineligible to Work from Home: If the University suspends in-person operations, enter the Absence code "Inclement Weather" for the hours you missed due to the weather.
-
Required to Work On Campus: If you reported to campus, enter the Absence code "Inclement Weather" for the hours missed, and record your actual worked hours with the "Inclement Weather Worked" code. These hours will be paid at the overtime rate.
For full instructions, please refer to the January 10 email with the subject "Inclement Weather – Time Entry in Workday for Non-Exempt Hourly Employees."

December Workday Functionality Updates
December 9, 2024
Amazon Approvals and Cancellations
Amazon orders must be approved by your Cost Center Manager and cannot be delegated. Please ensure timely approval of all Amazon orders and work closely with your Cost Center Manager to obtain necessary approvals to avoid cancellations. Unapproved orders will automatically close after seven calendar days.
Travel Credits or Refunds
When reconciling a commercial card credit or refund for a travel expense, reconcile travel credits/refunds as a single item. This will streamline the process and eliminate the need for spend authorization.
Expenses Hub Sidebar
A convenient sidebar has been added to the left-hand side of the Expenses Hub screen. This sidebar provides quick and easy access to:
-
Expense Reports
-
Expense Transactions
-
Spend Authorizations
-
Payment Elections
If you have not added the Expenses Hub to your apps, open the Menu on the left side. At the bottom, click “Add Apps.” Search for Expenses Hub and click the plus sign…
November Workday Functionality Updates
November 5, 2024
Amazon Receipts
When you receive your Amazon purchase, remember to keep the packing slip. You will need it to close the purchase in Workday. To do this, create a receipt in Workday to confirm you have received the items and the correct quantity. For step-by-step instructions, click here.
Expense Report Itemizations
If you need to split an expense between two Cost Centers, click "Itemization" on the expense line. This option is only necessary when dividing costs between multiple funding sources. For detailed instructions, click here.
Spend Authorization Close-Out
Before any university travel, a Spend Authorization is required. This authorization approves and reserves funds for your travel. Once you have reconciled all of your expenses against the authorization, you must close the Spend Authorization to release any remaining funds into the budget. Click here for a step-by-step guide on closing out a Spend Authorization.

Workday Project Updates
October 23, 2024
Resources and Updates
The Workday project team continues to update and add to the job aids, quick guides, and frequently asked questions. One new addition to the Workday resources is the Finance and Business Office Glossary. The glossary provides additional context with Workday terminology and roles related to the financial components. If you need to submit a request for consideration for a change of Cost Center, Program, or Gift, please submit this Google form. Each request will be reviewed by the Finance Office. Priority will be given to requests with urgent business needs and any requests deemed necessary to reflect the state of an area's budget in our old system. Requests for the creation of new Worktags will not be prioritized unless requested through your Vice President.
We know that budgets are of top interest to many. Stay tuned for upcoming information about budget training sessions. These materials and resources are in development.
