Foundation Data Model (FDM): Looking for a Deep Dive?

The FDM team recently shared updates with Fiscal Administrators and the FST Advisory Group, including their recommendation for the organizational worktags we'll use in our first build of the UVA Workday Financials tenant. The first build, coming this fall, will use these tags to see how they work when applied to UVA's data in the system. 

The team collaborated with stakeholders from schools and units to talk through functionality and transition from the current chart of accounts (COA). In terms of engagement, the team views this as just the tip of the iceberg. Many users will have the opportunity to get their hands in the system to test how it works and provide feedback to contribute to changes we'll see in the next build. 

As part of the process, the FDM team also compared UVA's needs and options for Workday FDM setup with what other higher education institutions have done.
