  • BuckeyePass to Protect Sponsored Guest Process

  • Salary Over the Cap Visibility Changes

    A Workday enhancement was released to production during the weekend of 10/22. Previously, if a grant expired, the Salary Over the Cap (SOC) bubble was no longer visible. Workday released an enhancement where the SOC bubble will now remain visible even if the grant expires. 

    This enhancement applied to all events in the future, but not in the past. This means we will still not have visibility for transactions that expired prior to the 10/22 release date. 

    The inability to report on Salary Over the Cap worktags is still an outstanding Workday issue.
