Workday Human Resources, Payroll and Finance Implementation

August 2014

Ideal – Strive for the ideal process and ask if there is a better way

End-User – Implement from the “consumer” perspective

Simplify and Streamline

• Reduce steps and approval layers
• Shorten time from start to finish
• Clear and easy to follow
• Intuitive
• Consistent, clear terminology

80/20 – Avoid designing around the exception

Enter Once – Enter data once and eliminate “shadow” systems

Visible – Make sure all information is visible and accessible in Workday

Reduce Paper – Minimize copies and “wet” signatures

District-wide – Design to work District- and College-wide

Reality – Ensure the system reflects reality (no awkward workarounds)

Challenge – Question “we have always done it this way”

Lead Forward – Provide clear, consistent and frequent communication
