Workday users who support multiple funding sources or change funding worktags commonly on procurement requisitions can take advantage of the “Create Requisition Worktags Templates” in Workday. These Worktag templates can be used during the checkout process of a requisition. Refer to the Create and Use Requisition Templates help documentation in the Administrative Resource Center (ARC) for more information.
Representatives from the Grants Shared Service Center and the Procurement Shared Service Center will be available to address top questions received from Workday users.
Sessions are planned for Wednesdays at 1 p.m. on September 29, October 13, and October 27.
A recent update has been made to allow the Cost Center Accountant, Accountant and Accounting Manager roles to mark supplier invoices as prepaid and create amortization schedules.
An example of this instance would be if a department has a monthly subscription that they pay once a year. An Invoice comes in January 1 and it would be marked as prepaid and amortized from January 1 to December 31. The change is marking supplier invoices prepaid via accounting adjustments after the invoice is paid. If a unit doesn’t have prepaid invoices, there is no change for them. But if they have invoices that are prepaying expenses and want to reclassify it from an expense account to a prepaid balance sheet account, Cost Center Accountants in the units can do this.
The Office of the Controller and the Enterprise Business Solutions (EBS) team are aware that open purchase orders in previous fiscal years may not have rolled forward into fiscal year 2022 to fully reflect encumbrances. The teams are working to determine the root cause and to find a resolution. They will provide updates when available. Questions or concerns, please reach out to CTL-FDMRequests@osu.edu .
