  • Important Reminders for FY25 Second Close, July 18

    Cristina Cardenas | July 11, 2025
    The second close for June FY25 will occur at 4 p.m. on Friday, July 18.  All journals in "created" or "in progress" status for June will be cancelled at that time. Last year, there were Workday performance issues due to a high volume of journal EIBs submitted the afternoon of second close. To ensure we can successfully close the evening of July 18, please do not wait until the afternoon of July 18 to submit EIB journals. If you notice performance issues, please do not attempt to submit the EIB again. In addition, if the journal is not that many lines, please use the Workday user interface to complete the journal instead of an EIB.
