Many policies have been updated across Business and Finance, including minor revisions and substantive changes. Some people have reported seeing outdated policy documents due to information being saved in their web browser history. The policies.osu.edu site will show the last edit date of the policies, and the document that you view should have the same revision/edit date (found at the very bottom of the policy).

If you see an outdated revision, please use the steps listed below as a guide to clear old information from the browser.

Three Workday reports, “Find Spend Authorizations - OSU,” “Find Spend Authorization Lines,” and “Find Spend Authorization Lines for Organization” will be decommissioned on June 30, 2022. 

These reports will be replaced by two new reports named “Find Spend Authorization Details - OSU” and “Find Spend Authorization Summary - OSU.”

A new "Payroll Funding - Period Activity Pay - Expired Funding" report has been created to help finance users validate expired costing for Period Activity Pay Assignments. The report is available for end users and allows a user to search for period activity pay in a semester where one or more lines has an expired grant worktag associated with it.

A list of Workday Finance and Supply Chain reports is now available. The listing includes report definition and typical security roles which are broken down into three main categories: Accounting, HR for Finance Reporting, and Operational. This inventory will evolve as new reports are created or enhancements are made.  

The reports "Find Supplier Invoice Details - OSU" and "Find Supplier Invoice Summary - OSU" have been enhanced to allow greater flexibility and are now able to be run for Cost Center Hierarchy Level 7, and Cost Center Hierarchy Level 8. Additionally, each report now includes the Match Exception Override Reason where applicable.
