Workday® 2020R2: Discovery Boards

Let’s talk about dashboards, decision makers love them. They show data in a way that’s easy to understand, they’re visually appealing, and they reduce the time it takes to analyze a topic.

However, for analysts they can be a headache:

  • Creating multiple matrix reports
  • Trying to find the right fields and data sources to ensure the dashboard is performant
  • Finding a domain that supports all your reports
  • Running the reports over and over to find the best graphical representation of data and the proper fields
  • Organizing the graphs and charts to display in the proper order with only two sizing options

It makes for a time consuming and often tedious process.

Workday®  has solved all these issues with Discovery Boards.

Despite hitting the pause button on office work and in-person events (crying emoji for Rising 2020, but looking forward to the end of Sept Share-a-thon and Workday Olympics), Workday has brought us a bounty of new features to be excited about as recruiting professionals.  Instead of my normal top 3-5 list, I’ve decided to talk themes that I’m seeing in the space and how Workday has decided to approach them with 2020R2.

zCF for Workday® Calculated Fields: Send Them to the Bottom

If you write reports or create condition rules then you are familiar with the daily struggle of trying to find the right field. Unless, of course, you are among the lucky few who implemented the zCF naming convention. I originally heard about the zCF naming convention on the Sharing Show and immediately realized the problems it could solve:
-Workday® delivered fields rise to the top and aren’t lost among calculated fields.
