FST Updates: April 26, 2022

 


Training Update

Training officially begins in May, but there are a few things you can do now to get started!  We've posted the calendars for instructor-led training that will be available in May and June to the FST portion of the UVAFinance website. Training will be role-based, and as roles are finalized, they will be assigned to you and you can choose training offerings that fit your schedule.  Since schedules fill up so quickly, you can go ahead and note the times of training you're likely to need.  Also, the web-based pre-requisite course "Introduction to Workday Financials" is available now in Workday Learning.  Just log in, search for the course title, and get a jump on your training!

More about Workday Security Roles

 The FST Team is working with school and unit leaders to put the finishing touches on the mapping of roles from Oracle to Workday Financials, so you can expect to see some information coming out soon on that in your area.  While the nuances are being worked out, you can take a look at the "Day in the Life" Security Role Summaries to get an idea of how roles will function in Workday.

Read the full Security Role update in the blog.

FST Fridays 

Want a sneak-peek into Workday Financials before training starts? Check out the FST Friday sessions we’ve offered every Friday this April! You’re not too late to catch the last one this Friday, and we have all the previous session materials posted online, including recordings of the sessions, so if you missed something, or want to revisit something you saw, please visit this page: https://uvafinance.virginia.edu/finance-strategic-transformation/about and click on "Join us for FST Fridays!"

Cutover Details 

 The FST team is working hard with our partners across UVA to make sure everyone understands the key dates that will affect each area.  We’ve begun putting together a resource on the FST website that has cutover timelines and checklists to help you and your team get through cutover as smoothly as possible.  The timelines and checklists you see on the website for June give you a clearer idea of the last dates for transactions in the old system and the first dates that new systems will be available. Keep in mind we’ll be adding information to this site almost daily, and this isn’t the only way we’ll communicate about cutover.
