Workday is the university's information system for human resources, financial operations, procurement, expenses, and grants. It supports principal investigators, administrators, and staff by providing insights across finance, payroll, HR and planning for grants users.
Grant management through Workday eliminates reporting errors, losses from unspent funds, and the risks associated with noncompliance, providing transparency into stuck processes and a clear audit trail of what occurred.
There is full visibility on an award into terms and conditions, dates, balances, and more to ensure that all grant requirements are met. PIs can see costs and revenue in real time for a complete view of financial position on awards in order to control unnecessary spending. Workday also provides the ability to ensure that individuals have met their commitments to a sponsored project and their wages are commensurate with their work for effort certification.
