  • Workday Email Display Name Change

    |August 5, 2022

    On Friday, August 12, the display name for emails sent by Workday will change. The current display name “OSU Workday Administrator” will become “Ohio State Workday Notification” when the change takes place.

  • Schedule to Run the 120 Day Award Closeout Report To Reduce Run Time

    |July 8, 2022

    With the volume of data now in Workday, users are experiencing system performance issues when running the 120 Day Award Closeout Report. We recommend users schedule the 120 Day Award Closeout Report to run during off-hours (in the evening, overnight, or during the weekend). Scheduling the report during non-peak hours will reduce the amount of time it takes to run the report. The report also remains available for viewing within Workday for the number of days you specify when scheduling the report.

    Below are instructions for scheduling the 120 Day Award Closeout Report.

  • Freight on Requisitions

    |June 11, 2022

    Freight charges should not be listed as a line item on the requisition. Freight will be applied to the freight section of the header of the purchase order when the invoice is paid.

    Paying freight charges on the header of the purchase order will allow for consistent reporting of freight charges. 

    Contact your local Service Center or the Procurement Shared Service Center with questions.
