Change Network Roles Before Go-Live “Focus on Readiness” After Go-Live “Support Users” Supporter Listener Change Partners feedback and communications channel between their business unit and the Change Management team Serve as a Liaison Direct Users to Help Resources Ambassador of Change Learn about the Changes Early Adapter Coach Local Workday Gurus community of users who can provide business process support as a part of their current role Provide User Support Participate in this Community of Practice Serve as a Liaison Learn their assigned areas of the system Change Partners serve as a communications channel between their business units and the Change Management team. Your primary responsibilities before go-live is to prepare your areas for Workday. As an ambassador of change you will learn about the Workday changes, share that information with people in your area. And once the system is live, your role changes to sharing information you receive from colleagues about Workday with Change management. You will also help to direct users to the appropriate help resources. Local Workday Gurus are a community of users who can provide business process support as a part of their current role. They will have an early opportunity to get into Workday and to learn about their assigned areas of the system. After Workday is live, they will provide local users with help support, participate in this Community of Practice by knowledge sharing and to share feedback you receive from your colleagues and faculty with the change management team.

Timeline 2017 2018 Financials Go-Live Training In-Person Clinics
Jan-Mar Apr-Jun Jul-Sept Oct-Dec Financials Go-Live Training In-Person Clinics User Testing Post Go-Live Support (including FSC, ESC, ITS Help Desk) Weekly Updates, Supervisor Updates, Information Sessions Functionality updates occur, roughly, in March and September, as indicated by the “workday” logo. We are communicating with users in a variety of ways: through our weekly update to LA’s, OM’s, Change Network, Executive Sponsors, Impacted Systems Community Members, and Workday Program Members. If this group isn’t receiving this communication, their supervisors/Change Partners are receiving it and will provide updates at their in-house meetings. Additionally, the Workday Program is hosting information sessions, like this one, to inform the community about upcoming changes. We will be testing the system to ensure that the community can fulfill business processes in Workday (and to ensure our training materials are accurate and our support centers have adequate supporting documentation). Post Go-Live support will be offered for 4 months after July 3, to ensure the community is prepared to use Workday. We are actively preparing for go-live and will provide more detail in the months ahead. Finally, we are continually optimizing and improving Workday, with input from the community. This is an ongoing process. Prepare for Go-Live HR/Payroll/Academic Optimization Financials Optimization

Impacted Systems Background
Impacted systems are applications that are directly impacted by changes due to the implementation of Workday* Systems that perform the following functions are generally impacted: Use PTAEO or any portion of PTAEO Generate internal financial transactions (e.g., JSA, AP Invoices) Source data from, or send data to, Oracle EBS or the Data Warehouse Use HR or Identity data that originates in Oracle EBS, including Home Org, Department, and Job Category Wherever possible, system functionality was subsumed into Workday * = May include spreadsheets and other personal productivity tools Impacted systems are applications that are directly impacted by changes due to the implementation of Workday* Systems that perform the following functions are likely to be impacted: Use PTAEO or any portion of PTAEO Generate internal financial transactions (e.g., JSA, AP Invoices) Source data from, or send data to, Oracle EBS or the Data Warehouse Use HR or Identity data that originates in Oracle EBS, including Home Org, Department, and Job Category Wherever possible, a system should be eliminated * = May include spreadsheets and other personal productivity tools
14
Existing Functions Moving to Workday
Expense Reimbursement Purchasing: Supplies, Check Requests, Invoices Grants Management, including Effort Certification Financial Management, including Journal Entries, Payroll Costing, and a new Chart of Accounts (no more PTAEO) Financial Reporting As you know…. Expenses, procurement, and grants functions will be the only visible impact to academic staff. However, financial management tasks, such as Journal Entries, Cash Sales, Payroll Costing, conducted by business offices and central units will also be moving to Workday. We’ll be closing the fiscal year in one system and starting the next in Workday. Elaborate a bit more on the changes to business offices…. This translates into many changes for impacted system owners…. New functions…People Data and home org... And as a result of this, we have to change the way systems interact today with ORACLE to interact with Workday

What do I need to do? Know that a Command Center will be meeting daily to monitor Workday and all Impacted Systems to address any issues that come up after Go-Live. If you experience issues with your system when Workday goes live, assume business as usual and contact your regular production support person. These people will contact the appropriate workday team if they need assistance from the program. Convene Service and Support teams (those in the go-live support model), as well as members of the Program team to inform, address, resolve and communicate urgent Workday-related issues that have not been resolved through the established incident management process. Form a collection point to: consolidate the types, severity and counts of issues and their impact summarize, report and communicate issues and status to key stakeholders Agenda: Report New and Trending issues; prioritization of new issues as needed Review status of open Critical/High tickets Communication of Critical/High issues to impacted stakeholders/groups Frequency: Once daily with option to convene ad hoc calls for critical issues impacting large portions of the user community Duration: Operational from 6/30 through 8/15 Location: First floor of 25 Science Park in the space currently used for SIT, UAT and Deploy activities Daily meetings (Command Center call) will be held with staff from Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 to: Communicate of Critical/High issues to impacted stakeholders/groups

Questions and Answers Financial Management
Our users do not have charging instruction cheat sheets yet. Should we make our own cheat sheets using the PTAEO-to-Workday- COA Conversion tool? Financial Management Question: Our users do not have charging instruction cheat sheets yet. Should we make our own cheat sheets using the PTAEO-to-Workday-COA Conversion tool? Answer: The PTAEO-to-Workday-COA Conversion does not necessarily determine what segments you will use starting July In some cases, your historical conversion and the way you use the Workday COA starting July 2017 will be the same. However, the Conversion mappings are designed for historical financial information only. In areas where the University or individual units are changing/transforming their chart of accounts, business offices will need to provide a guide for users that may not be “straight out of” the Conversion Tools.
