Reports and reporting in Workday

Workday has over 250 standard reports that a team of HR professionals from across campus examined. With that team’s input, Cornell has built several custom reports. This document explores three categories of reports that the team suspects may meet your top-level reporting needs: additionally, you can supplement these reports by looking at and finding other Workday reports that may better suit your unit’s specific reporting needs. For example, use the slide out tab to the far-right side of your Workday screen: the navigation tab, just above your inbox tab, shows you categories of reports and tasks, to give you an idea of what is available in Workday.
