Starting Thursday, August 15 , new “Edit Position Restriction” and “Create Job Requisition” business processes will no longer require "Default Compensation" information to be entered or updated. This will streamline these two business processes, and HR Consultants, managers or cost center managers will no longer need to complete this step. Please share this change with others in your respective unit. Relevant Administrative Resource Center (ARC) job aids will be updated.
The "Default Compensation" fields may still appear in some reports; however, no data will be populated.

As we head into fiscal year 2025, check out the accomplishments listed in the FY24 Data Governance Annual Report , aligned under the six focus areas of the Data Governance program.
It’s hoped that when reading over each accomplishment, readers will not only take note of examples of where they’ve collaborated with the Data Governance team, but also examples of where they’ve benefited directly or indirectly from each deliverable.
Enhancements to Teams and Outlook will enable you to streamline your experience to work more efficiently.

Read on for more details about upcoming enhancements.
Please remember to take prompt action on in-progress or created journals before business day 5 of month-end close. This will help limit the high volume of transactions that the Controller's Office needs to move and/or cancel to close the period. Workday notifications issue a reminder to take action on journals on business day 4, and reminder emails are sent to the Cost Center Manager distribution list on day 5 as an additional reminder. The FY25 period close calendar can be found on the Controller's website for download .
There is a Workday case open due to reported issues where journal EIBs are stuck in a queued status for a few hours before being created. If you notice that you are affected by this issue, please do not resubmit the EIB, as it will slow things down further and duplicate journals will be created that need to be cancelled. When this occurs, please be patient, the queued EIB journals eventually get created after a few hours and you will be able to submit them at that time.
To view the status of journal EIBs, navigate to your Workday inbox and click "Archive." The status of the journal EIB will show as "in progress" when it is processing, and "successfully completed" once the journal is created. Once created, you will be able to view the journal and submit it for approval.
Below are details about reporting changes in production as of July 29. See the full post where indicated for more specifics.
Business Assets Reporting:
The "OSU - Find Assets" report now features a new Asset Description prompt. This text field allows users to enter a description, returning assets that begin with the specified value. This enhancement streamlines the search process, ensuring more accurate and relevant asset retrieval.
Find FDM Requests Report and Security Enhancements:
The "Find FDM Requests" report has recently been enhanced to include a prompt for the Initiator's CCH6 as of the "Date Initiated" value. On the output of the report, the column "Initiator's Unit" has been replaced with the "Initiator's CCH6 as of Date Initiated." This change was made to help capture the correct CCH6 for which the request was entered even if the initiator no longer works in that unit.
Additionally, the security groups permitted access to run this report have been expanded to include the roles as listed in the full post . Please note, in order to see the request on the output of the report, users will need to have one of the security roles listed in the full post for the organization of the initiator. For example, if the initiator's organization is the company The Ohio State University, someone with the Cost Center Accountant role for that company will be able to view the request. However, someone with that same role but for the organization OSU Health System would not be able to view that request.
All PCard Forms that support the issuance of a new PCard or adjustments to an existing PCard will be moved from DocuSign to Workday on Monday, August 12 .
Additional information and resources will be posted at the PCard webpage on the Business and Finance site prior to the transition. The PCard Office also offered an Information Session and Demonstration of the new Workday forms and submission process. See the article at the PCard webpage for a link to the recorded session.
For questions, contact the PCard Office at pcard@osu.edu or 614-292-9290.
