Explanation:
This question addresses a troubleshooting scenario in Workday Pro Integrations, where a calculated field used as a field override in a Connector does not appear in the output, despite having a value. Let’s analyze the potential causes and evaluate each option.
Understanding Calculated Fields and Connectors in Workday
Calculated Fields: In Workday, calculated fields are custom fields created using Workday’s expression language to derive values based on other fields, conditions, or functions. They are often used in reports, integrations, and business processes to transform or aggregate data. Calculated fields can reference other fields (data sources) and require appropriate security permissions to access those underlying fields.
Field Override in Connectors: In a Core Connector or other integration system, a field override allows you to replace or supplement a default field with a custom value, such as a calculated field. This is configured in the integration’s mapping or transformation steps, ensuring the output includes the desired data. However, for the calculated field to appear in the output, it must be accessible, have a valid value, and be properly configured in the integration.
Issue: Calculated Field Not Appearing in Output: If the calculated field has a value but doesn’t appear in the Connector’s output, the issue likely relates to security, configuration, or access restrictions. The question assumes the field has a value, so we focus on permissions or setup errors rather than data issues.
Evaluating Each Option
Let’s assess each option based on Workday’s integration and security model:
Option A: Access not provided to calculated field data source.
Analysis: This is partially related but incorrect as the primary cause. Calculated fields often rely on underlying data sources (e.g., worker data, organization data) to compute their values. If access to the data source is restricted, the calculated field might not compute correctly or appear in the output. However, the question specifies the field has a value, implying the data source is accessible. The more specific issue is likely access to the individual fields within the calculated field’s expression, not just the broader data source.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: While data source access is important, it’s too general here. The calculated field’s value exists, suggesting the data source is accessible, but the problem lies in finer-grained permissions for the fields used in the calculation.
Option B: Access not provided to all fields in the calculated field.
Analysis: This is correct. Calculated fields in Workday are expressions that reference one or more fields (e.g., Worker_ID + Position_Title). For the calculated field to be used in a Connector’s output, the ISU (via its ISSG) must have access to all fields referenced in the calculation. If any field lacks "Get" or "View" permission in the relevant domain (e.g., Worker Data), the calculated field won’t appear in the output, even if it has a value. This is a common security issue in integrations, as ISSGs must be configured with domain access for every field involved.
Why It Fits: Workday’s security model requires granular permissions.
For example, if a calculated field combines Worker_Name and Hire_Date, the ISU needs access to both fields’ domains. If Hire_Date is restricted, the calculated field fails to output, even with a value. This aligns with the scenario and is a frequent troubleshooting point in Workday Pro Integrations.
Option C: Access not provided to Connector calculated field web service.
Analysis: This is incorrect. There isn’t a specific "Connector calculated field web service" in Workday. Calculated fields are part of the integration’s configuration, not a separate web service. The web service operation used by the Connector (e.g., Get_Workers) must have permissions, but this relates to the overall integration, not the calculated field specifically. The issue here is field-level access, not a web service restriction.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: This option misinterprets Workday’s architecture. Calculated fields are configured within the integration, not as standalone web services, making this irrelevant to the problem.
Option D: Access not provided to all instances of calculated field.
Analysis: This is incorrect. The concept of "instances" typically applies to data records (e.g., all worker records), not calculated fields themselves. Calculated fields are expressions, not data instances, so there’s no need for "instance-level" access. The issue is about field-level permissions within the calculated field’s expression, not instances of the field. This option misunderstands Workday’s security model for calculated fields.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: Calculated fields don’t have "instances" requiring separate access; they depend on the fields they reference, making this option inaccurate.
Final Verification
The correct answer is Option B, as the calculated field’s absence in the output is likely due to the ISU lacking access to all fields referenced in the calculated field’s expression.
For example, if the calculated field in a Core Connector: Worker Data combines Worker_ID and Department_Name, the ISSG must have "Get" access to both the Worker Data and Organization Data domains. If Department_Name is restricted, the calculated field won’t output, even with a value. This is a common security configuration issue in Workday integrations, addressed by reviewing and adjusting ISSG domain permissions.
This aligns with Workday’s security model, where granular permissions are required for all data elements, as seen in Questions 26 and 28. The assumption that the field has a value rules out data or configuration errors, focusing on security as the cause.
Supporting Documentation
The reasoning is based on:
Workday Community documentation on calculated fields, security domains, and integration mappings.
Tutorials on configuring Connectors and troubleshooting, such as Workday Advanced Studio Tutorial, highlighting field access issues.
Integration security guides from partners (e.g., NetIQ, Microsoft Learn, Reco.ai) detailing ISSG permissions for fields in calculated expressions.
Community discussions on Reddit and Workday forums on calculated field troubleshooting (r/workday on Reddit).
정답:
Explanation:
When setting up security for a Core Connector integration system in Workday, you need to know which web service operation the connector template uses. The best way is to run the "Integration Template Catalog report" within your Workday tenant. This report lists all integration templates and should include details about the web service operations they use, making it easy to configure security.
Why This Matters
This method is efficient because it lets you find the information before running the system, which is crucial for setting up permissions correctly. It's surprising that such a specific report exists, as it simplifies a task that could otherwise involve running the system or guessing from API references.
How It Works
Select the report in your Workday tenant to see a list of all Core Connector templates.
Look for the template you're using and find the associated web service operation listed in the report.
Use this information to set up the right security permissions for your integration.

Explanation:
Understanding ISUs and Integration Systems in Workday
Integration System User (ISU): An ISU is a specialized user account in Workday designed for integrations, functioning as a service account to authenticate and execute integration processes. ISUs are created using the "Create Integration System User" task and are typically configured with settings like disabling UI sessions and setting long session timeouts (e.g., 0 minutes) to prevent expiration during automated processes. ISUs are not human users but are instead programmatic accounts used for API calls, EIBs, Core Connectors, or other integration mechanisms.
Integration Systems: In Workday, an "integration system" refers to the configuration or setup of an integration, such as an External Integration Business (EIB), Core Connector, or custom integration via web services. Integration systems are defined to handle data exchange between Workday and external systems, and they require authentication, often via an ISU, to execute tasks like data retrieval, transformation, or posting.
Assigning ISUs to Integration Systems: ISUs are used to authenticate and authorize integration systems to interact with Workday. When configuring an integration system, you assign an ISU to provide the credentials needed for the integration to run. This assignment ensures that the integration can access Workday data and functionalities based on the security permissions granted to the ISU via its associated Integration System Security Group (ISSG).
Limitation on Assignment: Workday’s security model imposes restrictions to maintain control and auditability. Specifically, an ISU is designed to be tied to a single integration system to ensure clear accountability, prevent conflicts, and simplify security management. This limitation prevents an ISU from being reused across multiple unrelated integration systems, reducing the risk of unintended access or data leakage.
Evaluating Each Option
Let’s assess each option based on Workday’s integration and security practices:
Option A: An ISU can be assigned to five integration systems.
Analysis: This is incorrect. Workday does not impose a specific numerical limit like "five" for ISU assignments to integration systems. Instead, the limitation is more restrictive: an ISU is typically assigned to only one integration system to ensure focused security and accountability. Allowing an ISU to serve multiple systems could lead to confusion, overlapping permissions, or security risks, which Workday’s design avoids.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: There’s no documentation or standard practice in Workday Pro Integrations suggesting a limit of five integration systems per ISU. This option is arbitrary and inconsistent with Workday’s security model.
Option B: An ISU can be assigned to an unlimited number of integration systems.
Analysis: This is incorrect. Workday’s security best practices do not allow an ISU to be assigned to an unlimited number of integration systems. Allowing this would create security vulnerabilities, as an ISU’s permissions (via its ISSG) could be applied across multiple unrelated systems, potentially leading to unauthorized access or data conflicts. Workday enforces a one-to-one or tightly controlled relationship to maintain auditability and security.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: The principle of least privilege and clear accountability in Workday integrations requires limiting an ISU’s scope, not allowing unlimited assignments.
Option C: An ISU can be assigned to only one integration system.
Analysis: This is correct. In Workday, an ISU is typically assigned to a single integration system to ensure that its credentials and permissions are tightly scoped. This aligns with Workday’s security model, where ISUs are created for specific integration purposes (e.g., an EIB, Core Connector, or web service integration). When configuring an integration system, you specify the ISU in the integration setup (e.g., under "Integration System Attributes" or "Authentication" settings), and it is not reused across multiple systems to prevent conflicts or unintended access. This limitation ensures traceability and security, as the ISU’s actions can be audited within the context of that single integration.
Why It Fits: Workday documentation and best practices, including training materials and community forums, emphasize that ISUs are dedicated to specific integrations.
For example, when creating an EIB or Core Connector, you assign an ISU, and it is not shared across other integrations unless explicitly reconfigured, which is rare and discouraged for security reasons.
Option D: An ISU can only be assigned to an ISSG and not an integration system.
Analysis: This is incorrect. While ISUs are indeed assigned to ISSGs to inherit security permissions (as established in Question 26), they are also assigned to integration systems to provide authentication and authorization for executing integration tasks. The ISU’s role includes both: it belongs to an ISSG for permissions and is linked to an integration system for execution. Saying it can only be assigned to an ISSG and not an integration system misrepresents Workday’s design, as ISUs are explicitly configured in integration systems (e.g., EIB, Core Connector) to run processes.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: ISUs are integral to integration systems, providing credentials for API calls or data exchange. Excluding assignment to integration systems contradicts Workday’s integration framework.
Final Verification
The correct answer is Option C, as Workday limits an ISU to a single integration system to ensure security, accountability, and clarity in integration operations. This aligns with the principle of least privilege, where ISUs are scoped narrowly to avoid overexposure.
For example, when setting up a Core Connector: Job Postings (as in Question 25), you assign an ISU specifically for that integration, not multiple ones, unless reconfiguring for a different purpose, which is atypical.
Supporting Documentation
The reasoning is based on Workday Pro Integrations security practices, including:
Workday Community documentation on creating and managing ISUs and integration systems.
Tutorials on configuring EIBs, Core Connectors, and web services, which show assigning ISUs to specific integrations (e.g., Workday Advanced Studio Tutorial).
Integration security overviews from implementation partners (e.g., NetIQ, Microsoft Learn, Reco.ai) emphasizing one ISU per integration for security.

This question focuses on the purpose of granting an Integration System User (ISU) modify access to the Integration Event domain via an Integration System Security Group (ISSG) in Workday Pro Integrations. Let’s analyze the role of the ISU, the Integration Event domain, and evaluate each option to determine the correct answer.
Understanding ISUs, ISSGs, and the Integration Event Domain
Integration System User (ISU): As described in previous questions, an ISU is a service account for integrations, used to authenticate and execute integration processes in Workday. ISUs are assigned to ISSGs to inherit security permissions and are linked to specific integration systems (e.g., EIBs, Core Connectors) for execution.
Integration System Security Group (ISSG): An ISSG is a security group that defines the permissions for ISUs, controlling what data and functionalities they can access or modify. ISSGs can be unconstrained (access all instances) or constrained (access specific instances based on context). Permissions are granted via domain security policies, such as "Get," "Put," "View," or "Modify," applied to Workday domains.
Integration Event Domain: In Workday, the Integration Event domain (or Integration Events security domain) governs access to integration-related activities, such as managing integration events, schedules, attributes, mappings, and logs. This domain is critical for integrations, as it controls the ability to create, modify, or view integration configurations and runtime events.
"Modify" access to the Integration Event domain allows the ISU to make changes to integration configurations, such as attributes (e.g., file names, endpoints), mappings (e.g., data transformations), and event settings (e.g., schedules or triggers).
This domain does not typically grant UI access or ownership of schedules but focuses on configuration and runtime control.
Purpose of Granting Modify Access: Granting an ISU modify access to the Integration Event domain via an ISSG enables the ISU to perform configuration tasks for integrations, ensuring the integration system can adapt or update its settings programmatically. This is essential for automated integrations that need to adjust mappings, attributes, or event triggers without manual intervention. However, ISUs are not designed for UI interaction or administrative ownership, as they are service accounts.
Evaluating Each Option
Let’s assess each option based on Workday’s security and integration model:
Option A: To have the ISU own the integration schedule.
Analysis: This is incorrect. ISUs do not "own" integration schedules or any other integration components. Ownership is not a concept applicable to ISUs, which are service accounts for execution, not administrative entities. Integration schedules are configured within the integration system (e.g., EIB or Core Connector) and managed by administrators or users with appropriate security roles, not by ISUs. Modify access to the Integration Event domain allows changes to schedules, but it doesn’t imply ownership.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: ISUs lack administrative control or ownership; they execute based on permissions, not manage schedules as owners. This misinterprets the ISU’s role.
Option B: To let the ISU configure integration attributes and maps.
Analysis: This is correct. Granting modify access to the Integration Event domain allows the ISU to alter integration configurations, including attributes (e.g., file names, endpoints, timeouts) and mappings (e.g., data transformations like worker subtype mappings from Question 25). The Integration Event domain governs these configuration elements, and "Modify" permission enables the ISU to update them programmatically during integration execution. This is a standard use case for ISUs in automated integrations, ensuring flexibility without manual intervention.
Why It Fits: Workday’s documentation and training materials indicate that the Integration Event domain controls integration configuration tasks.
For example, in an EIB or Core Connector, an ISU with modify access can adjust mappings or attributes, as seen in tutorials on integration setup (Workday Advanced Studio Tutorial). This aligns with the ISU’s role as a service account for dynamic configuration.
Option C: To log into the user interface as the ISU and launch the integration.
Analysis: This is incorrect. ISUs are not intended for UI interaction. When creating an ISU, a best practice is to disable UI sessions (e.g., set "Allow UI Sessions" to "No") and configure a session timeout of 0 minutes to prevent expiration during automation. ISUs operate programmatically via APIs or integration systems, not through the Workday UI. Modify access to the Integration Event domain enables configuration changes, not UI login or manual launching.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: Logging into the UI contradicts ISU design, as they are service accounts, not user accounts. This option misrepresents their purpose.
Option D: To build the integration system as the ISU.
Analysis: This is incorrect. ISUs do not "build" integration systems; they execute or configure existing integrations based on permissions. Building an integration system (e.g., creating EIBs, Core Connectors, or web services) is an administrative task performed by users with appropriate security roles (e.g., Integration Build domain access), not ISUs. Modify access to the Integration Event domain allows configuration changes, not the creation or design of integration systems.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: ISUs lack the authority or capability to build integrations; they are for runtime execution and configuration, not development or design.
Final Verification
The correct answer is Option B, as granting an ISU modify access to the Integration Event domain via an ISSG enables it to configure integration attributes (e.g., file names, endpoints) and maps (e.g., data transformations), which are critical for dynamic integration operations. This aligns with Workday’s security model, where ISUs handle automated tasks within defined permissions, not UI interaction, ownership, or system building.
For example, in the Core Connector: Job Postings from Question 25, an ISU with modify access to Integration Event could update the filename pattern or worker subtype mappings, ensuring the integration adapts to vendor requirements without manual intervention. This is consistent with Workday’s design for integration automation.

Explanation:
This question explores the relationship between an Integration System User (ISU) and an Integration System Security Group (ISSG) in Workday Pro Integrations, focusing on how security is structured for integrations. Let’s analyze the relationship and evaluate each option to determine the correct answer.
Understanding ISU and ISSG in Workday
Integration System User (ISU): An ISU is a dedicated user account in Workday specifically designed for integrations. It acts as a "robot account" or service account, used by integration systems to interact with Workday via APIs, web services, or other integration mechanisms (e.g., EIBs, Core Connectors). ISUs are typically configured with a username, password, and specific security settings, such as disabling UI sessions and setting session timeouts to prevent expiration (commonly set to 0 minutes). ISUs are not human users but are instead programmatic accounts for automated processes.
Integration System Security Group (ISSG): An ISSG is a security container or group in Workday that defines the permissions and access rights for integration systems. ISSGs are used to manage what data and functionalities an integration (or its associated ISU) can access or modify within Workday. There are two types of ISSGs:
Unconstrained: Allows access to all data instances secured by the group.
Constrained: Limits access to a subset of data instances based on context (e.g., specific segments or data scopes). ISSGs are configured with domain security policies, granting permissions like "Get" (read), "Put" (write), "View," or "Modify" for specific domains (e.g., Worker Data, Integration Build).
Relationship Between ISU and ISSG: In Workday, security for integrations is managed through a hierarchical structure. An ISU is associated with or assigned to an ISSG to inherit its permissions. The ISSG acts as the security policy container, defining what the ISU can do, while the ISU is the account executing those actions. This relationship ensures that integrations have controlled, audited access to Workday data and functions, adhering to the principle of least privilege.
Evaluating Each Option
Let’s assess each option based on Workday’s security model for integrations:
Option A: The ISU is a member of the ISSG.
Analysis: This is correct. In Workday, an ISU is assigned to or associated with an ISSG to gain the necessary permissions. The ISSG serves as a security group that contains one or more ISUs, granting them access to specific domains and functionalities.
For example, when creating an ISU, you use the "Create Integration System User" task, and then assign it to an ISSG via the "Assign Integration System Security Groups" or "Maintain Permissions for Security Group" tasks. Multiple ISUs can belong to the same ISSG, inheriting its permissions. This aligns with Workday’s security framework, where security groups (like ISSGs) manage user (or ISU) access.
Why It Fits: The ISU is a "member" of the ISSG in the sense that it is linked to the group to receive its permissions, enabling secure integration operations. This is a standard practice for managing integration security in Workday.
Option B: The ISU owns the ISSG.
Analysis: This is incorrect. In Workday, ISUs do not "own" ISSGs. Ownership or control of security groups is not a concept applicable to ISUs, which are service accounts for integrations, not administrative entities with authority over security structures. ISSGs are created and managed by Workday administrators or security professionals using tasks like "Create Security Group" and "Maintain Permissions for Security Group." The ISU is simply a user account assigned to the ISSG, not its owner or controller.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: Ownership implies administrative control, which ISUs lack; they are designed for execution, not management of security groups.
Option C: The ISU grants security policies to the ISSG.
Analysis: This is incorrect. ISUs do not have the authority to grant or modify security policies for ISSGs. Security policies are defined and assigned to ISSGs by Workday administrators or security roles with appropriate permissions (e.g., Security Configuration domain access). ISUs are passive accounts that execute integrations based on the permissions granted by the ISSG they are assigned to. Granting permissions is an administrative function, not an ISU capability.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: ISUs are integration accounts, not security administrators, so they cannot modify or grant policies to ISSGs.
Option D: The ISU controls what accounts are in the ISSG.
Analysis: This is incorrect. ISUs do not control membership or configuration of ISSGs. Adding or removing accounts (including other ISUs) from an ISSG is an administrative task performed by users with security configuration permissions, using tasks like "Maintain Permissions for Security Group." ISUs are limited to executing integration tasks based on their assigned ISSG permissions, not managing group membership.
Why It Doesn’t Fit: ISUs lack the authority to manage ISSG membership or structure, as they are not administrative accounts but integration-specific service accounts.
Final Verification
Based on Workday’s security model, the correct relationship is that an ISU is a member of an ISSG, inheriting its permissions to perform integration tasks. This is consistent with the principle of least privilege, where ISSGs define access, and ISUs execute within those boundaries. The other options misattribute administrative or ownership roles to ISUs, which are not supported by Workday’s design.
Supporting Information
The relationship is grounded in Workday’s integration security practices, including:
Creating an ISU via the "Create Integration System User" task.
Creating an ISSG via the "Create Security Group" task, selecting "Integration System Security Group (Unconstrained)" or "Constrained."
Assigning the ISU to the ISSG using tasks like "Assign Integration System Security Groups" or "Maintain Permissions for Security Group."
Configuring domain security policies (e.g., Get, Put) for the ISSG to control ISU access to domains like Worker Data, Integration Build, etc.
Activating security changes via "Activate Pending Security Policy Changes."
This structure ensures secure, controlled access for integrations, with ISSGs acting as the permission container and ISUs as the executing accounts.

정답:
Explanation:
This question involves configuring an outbound connector using the Core Connector: Job Postings template in Workday Pro Integrations.
We need to meet two specific vendor requirements:
Map worker subtype values according to the provided table (e.g., Seasonal (Fixed) = "S", Regular = "R", Contractor = "C", Consultant = "C", and any other value = "U").
Format the output file name as "CC_Job_Postings_dd-mm-yy_#.xml", where:
"dd" is the current day at runtime,
"mm" is the current month at runtime,
"yy" is the last two digits of the current year at runtime,
"#" is the current value of the sequencer at runtime.
Let’s break down the requirements and evaluate each option to determine the correct configuration steps.
Understanding the Requirements
정답:
Explanation:
Key Points:
The correct approach is adjusting the connector's filename launch parameter, which allows setting a static filename and meeting the vendor's requirement of no longer needing unique filenames.
This method ensures that the filename sequence generator is bypassed without disrupting the integration process.
Comprehensive Detailed
In Workday Pro Integrations, filename sequence generators are commonly used to generate unique filenames to avoid overwrites in integrations. However, when a vendor no longer requires unique filenames, modifications must be made to use a fixed filename instead.
Why Option D?
Adjusting the connector’s filename launch parameter lets you set a static filename at runtime, effectively overriding any sequence generator settings.
Unlike deleting the sequence generator (which could cause errors), this method ensures smooth execution of the integration with a fixed filename.
This aligns with Workday's best practices for integration configurations, particularly in External Integration Business (EIB) and other Workday connector integrations.
Steps to Implement:
Access the integration’s configuration in Workday.
Locate the filename launch parameter for the connector.
Set it to a static value (e.g., "data.txt") to ensure consistent naming.
Supporting Documentation:
Workday documentation on integration configurations, particularly for EIB systems, confirms that filename settings can be adjusted via launch parameters.
The "Get_Sequence_Generators Operation Details" in Workday API documentation supports modifying filename configurations through launch parameters.
정답:
Explanation:
Understanding the Requirement
The question involves scheduling an integration in Workday to deliver a file containing recent compensation changes to an external system.
The key requirements are:
The file must be delivered routinely at 5 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST).
The recurrence should exclude weekends (i.e., run only on weekdays: Monday through Friday).
The file should include compensation changes since the last integration run, implying an incremental data pull, though this does not directly affect the recurrence type.
The task is to identify the correct recurrence type for the integration schedule from the given options:
A. Recurs every 12 hours
B. Recurs every weekday
C. Dependent recurrence
D. Recurs every 1 day(s)
Analysis of the Workflow and Recurrence Options
In Workday, integrations are scheduled using the Integration Schedule functionality, typically within tools like Enterprise Interface Builder (EIB) or Workday Studio, though this scenario aligns closely with EIB for routine file-based integrations. The recurrence type determines how frequently and under what conditions the integration runs.
Let’s evaluate each option against the requirements:
Step-by-Step Breakdown
Time Specification (5 PM EST):
Workday allows scheduling integrations at a specific time of day (e.g., 5 PM EST). This is set in the schedule configuration and is independent of the recurrence type but confirms the need for a daily-based recurrence with a specific time slot.
Exclusion of Weekends:
The requirement explicitly states the integration should not run on weekends (Saturday and Sunday), meaning it should only execute on weekdays (Monday through Friday). This is a critical filter for choosing the recurrence type.
Incremental Data (Since Last Run):
The file must include compensation changes since the last integration run. In Workday, this is typically handled by configuring the integration (e.g., via a data source filter or "changed since" parameter in EIB), not the recurrence type. Thus, this requirement does not directly influence the recurrence type but confirms the integration runs periodically.
정답:
Explanation:
To create a connector-based integration with additional custom configurations such as dynamic file naming and internal-to-external value mapping, the following steps must be followed:
Enable Needed Integration Services:
This step involves activating the required integration services to ensure that the necessary API calls, security, and processing capabilities are available within Workday.
Configure Integration Field Attributes:
Integration Field Attributes allow customization of fields within the integration, enabling changes to formats, mappings, and transformations, such as including a dynamically generated file name with the current date and integration run number.
Configure Integration Maps:
Integration Maps are used to transform internal values into external values as per the vendor’s requirements. This ensures that data fields in Workday align correctly with external system specifications.
Configure Sequence Generator:
The Sequence Generator is used to append unique identifiers to output files, ensuring each integration run produces a uniquely named file (e.g., including the current date and run number).
This workflow ensures that the integration is set up efficiently while meeting the vendor’s additional configuration needs.

정답:
Explanation:
In Workday, a sequence generator is used to create unique, sequential identifiers for integration processes, such as Enterprise Interface Builders (EIBs). These identifiers are often needed to ensure data uniqueness or to meet external system requirements for tracking records. The question asks specifically about building a sequence generator for an EIB integration, so we need to identify the correct task based on Workday’s integration configuration framework.
Understanding Sequence Generators in Workday
A sequence generator in Workday generates sequential numbers or IDs based on predefined rules, such as starting number, increment, and format. These are commonly used in integrations to create unique identifiers for outbound or inbound data, ensuring consistency and compliance with external system requirements. For EIB integrations, sequence generators are typically configured as part of the integration setup to handle data sequencing or identifier generation.
Analyzing the Options
Let’s evaluate each option to determine which task is used to build a sequence generator for an EIB integration:
A. Put Sequence Generator Rule Configuration
Description: This option suggests configuring rules for a sequence generator, but "Put Sequence Generator Rule Configuration" is not a standard Workday task name or functionality. Workday uses specific nomenclature like "Create ID Definition/Sequence Generator" for sequence generator setup. This option seems vague or incorrect, as it doesn’t align with Workday’s documented tasks for sequence generators.
Why Not Correct?: It’s not a recognized Workday task, and sequence generator configuration is typically handled through a specific setup process, not a "put" or rule-based configuration in this context.
B. Create ID Definition/Sequence Generator
Description: This is a standard Workday task used to create and configure sequence generators. In Workday, you navigate to the "Create ID Definition/Sequence Generator" task under the Integrations or Setup domain to define a sequence generator. This task allows you to specify the starting number, increment, format (e.g., numeric, alphanumeric), and scope (e.g., tenant-wide or integration-specific). For EIB integrations, this task is used to generate unique IDs or sequences for data records.
Why Correct?: This task directly aligns with Workday’s documentation for setting up sequence generators, as outlined in integration guides. It’s the standard method for building a sequence generator for use in EIBs or other integrations.
C. Edit Tenant Setup - Integrations
Description: This task involves modifying broader tenant-level integration settings, such as enabling services, configuring security, or adjusting integration parameters. While sequence generators might be used within integrations, this task is too high-level and does not specifically address creating or configuring a sequence generator.
Why Not Correct?: It’s not granular enough for sequence generator setup; it focuses on tenant-wide integration configurations rather than the specific creation of a sequence generator.
D. Configure Integration Sequence Generator Service
Description: This option suggests configuring a service specifically for sequence generation within an integration. However, Workday does not use a task named "Configure Integration Sequence Generator Service." Sequence generators are typically set up as ID definitions, not as standalone services. This option appears to be a misnomer or non-standard terminology.
Why Not Correct?: It’s not a recognized Workday task, and sequence generators are configured via "Create ID Definition/Sequence Generator," not as a service configuration.
Conclusion
Based on Workday’s integration framework and documentation, the correct task for building a sequence generator for an EIB integration is
B. Create ID Definition/Sequence Generator. This task allows you to define and configure the sequence generator with the necessary parameters (e.g., starting value, increment, format) for use in EIBs. This is a standard practice for ensuring unique identifiers in integrations, as described in Workday’s Pro Integrations training materials.
Surprising Insight
It’s interesting to note that Workday’s sequence generators are highly flexible, allowing customization for various use cases, such as generating employee IDs, transaction numbers, or integration-specific sequences. The simplicity of the "Create ID Definition/Sequence Generator" task makes it accessible even for non-technical users, which aligns with Workday’s no-code integration philosophy.

Explanation:
When creating an outbound connector using the Workday Core Connector: Organization Outbound template, you need to configure the connector to meet specific vendor requirements, such as formatting output data and adjusting document retention policies. Let's break down the question and analyze the requirements and options based on Workday's integration framework, specifically focusing on the Core Connector and its configuration tasks.
Understanding the Requirements
Output Data Formatting: The vendor has provided a table specifying how organization types should appear in the output file (e.g., Cost Center as "CC", Pay Group as "PAY", Supervisory as "S", and any other value as "OTHER"). This indicates a need to transform or map Workday organization data into specific output values, which is typically handled by configuring how fields are processed or mapped in the integration.
Document Retention Policy Change: The vendor wants to change the default document retention policy from 30 days to 7 days. In Workday, document retention policies for integrations (e.g., files stored on SFTP or other delivery methods) are managed through integration settings, specifically attributes related to file retention or delivery options.
Analyzing Workday Core Connector: Organization Outbound
The Core Connector: Organization Outbound template is a pre-built Workday integration template used to extract organization-related data (e.g., cost centers, pay groups, supervisory organizations) and send it to an external system. It leverages Workday's integration framework, including integration maps, field overrides, and attributes, to customize data output and behavior.
Integration Maps: Used to define how data is transformed or mapped from Workday to the output format, often involving XSLT or predefined mappings.
Integration Field Overrides: Allow you to override or customize how specific fields are displayed or formatted in the output, such as mapping "Cost Center" to "CC" as per the vendor's table.
Integration Attributes: Control broader integration settings, such as delivery methods, file formats, and retention policies (e.g., document retention duration).
Integration Field Attributes: Typically focus on specific field-level properties but are less commonly
used for retention policies or broad mappings compared to the above options.
Evaluating the Vendor's Output Requirements
The table provided (Cost Center → "CC", Pay Group → "PAY", Supervisory → "S", any other value → "OTHER") suggests a need to transform or override the default output values for organization types. This is a field-level customization, best handled by Integration Field Overrides, which allow you to specify custom values or formats for specific fields in the output.
For example, in the Core Connector, you can use Integration Field Overrides to map the Workday organization type (e.g., "Cost_Center") to the vendor's desired output ("CC"). This is a common practice for outbound integrations where external systems require specific formatting.
Evaluating the Retention Policy Change
The default document retention policy of 30 days needs to be changed to 7 days. In Workday, retention policies for integration output files (e.g., files delivered via SFTP or email) are configured as part of the integration's attributes, not field-level settings.
Integration Attributes are used to manage integration-wide settings, including delivery options, file retention periods, and other global configurations. You can specify the retention period (e.g., 7 days) in the attributes section of the Core Connector configuration.
This is distinct from field-level overrides or maps, as retention is not tied to individual data fields but to the integration's output management.
Analyzing the Options
Now, let's evaluate each option to determine which tasks are needed to meet both requirements:
A. Configure Integration Maps and Configure Integration Attributes
Integration Maps: These are used for broader data transformations or mappings, such as converting Workday XML to another format or defining complex data relationships. While they could theoretically handle the output value mappings (e.g., Cost Center → "CC"), they are typically more complex and less granular than field overrides for simple value changes.
Integration Attributes: Correct for configuring the retention policy (e.g., changing from 30 to 7 days), as attributes manage integration-wide settings like retention.
Why Not Sufficient?: Integration Maps are overkill for simple field value overrides like the vendor's table, and field-level customization is better handled by Integration Field Overrides for precision and ease.
B. Configure Integration Field Overrides and Configure Integration Field Attributes
Integration Field Overrides: Correct for mapping specific field values (e.g., Cost Center → "CC"), as they allow granular control over output formats for individual fields.
Integration Field Attributes: These are less commonly used and typically focus on field-specific properties (e.g., data type, length), not broad integration settings like retention policies. Retention is not managed at the field level, so this is incorrect for the retention requirement.
Why Not Sufficient?: Integration Field Attributes do not handle retention policies, making this option incomplete.
C. Configure Integration Field Overrides and Configure Integration Attributes
Integration Field Overrides: Perfect for mapping the vendor's output values (e.g., Cost Center → "CC", Pay Group → "PAY", etc.), as they allow precise control over field-level output formatting.
Integration Attributes: Correct for configuring the retention policy (e.g., changing from 30 to 7 days), as attributes manage integration-wide settings like file retention.
Why Sufficient?: This combination addresses both requirements―field-level output formatting and integration-wide retention policy changes―making it the most accurate choice.
D. Configure Integration Maps and Configure Integration Field Attributes
Integration Maps: As explained, these are better for complex transformations, not simple field value overrides like the vendor's table. They could work but are less efficient than field overrides.
Integration Field Attributes: As noted, these do not handle retention policies or broad integration settings, making them incorrect for the retention requirement.
Why Not Sufficient?: This combination fails to address retention effectively and uses Integration Maps when Integration Field Overrides would be more appropriate for the output formatting.
Conclusion
Based on the analysis, the vendor's requirements for output formatting (mapping organization types to specific values) and changing the retention policy (from 30 to 7 days) are best met by:
Integration Field Overrides: To customize the output values for organization types (e.g., Cost Center → "CC") as shown in the table.
Integration Attributes: To adjust the document retention policy from 30 days to 7 days.

Overview
For an outbound Enterprise Interface Builder (EIB) in Workday, the option that uses a Workday-delivered transformation to output a format other than Workday XML is Alternate Output Format. This allows you to select formats like CSV, which Workday handles without needing custom coding.
How It Works
When setting up an outbound EIB, you can use a custom report as the data source. By choosing an alternate output format, such as CSV, Workday automatically transforms the data into that format. This is surprising because it simplifies the process, requiring no additional user effort for transformation.
Why Not the Others?
XSL Attachment Transformation (B): This requires you to provide your own XSL file, making it a custom transformation, not delivered by Workday.
Custom Transformation (C): This is clearly user-defined, not Workday-delivered.
Custom Report Transformation (D): This also involves user customization, typically through XSL, and isn't a pre-built Workday option.
Comprehensive Analysis
This section provides a detailed examination of Workday's Enterprise Interface Builder (EIB) transformation options, focusing on outbound integrations and the specific question of identifying the option that uses a Workday-delivered transformation to output a format other than Workday XML. We will explore the functionality, configuration, and implications of each option, ensuring a thorough understanding based on available documentation and resources.
Understanding Workday EIB and Outbound Integrations
Workday EIB is a no-code, graphical interface tool designed for both inbound and outbound integrations, facilitating the exchange of data between Workday and external systems. For outbound EIBs, the process involves extracting data from Workday (typically via a custom report) and delivering it to an external endpoint, such as via SFTP, email, or other protocols. The integration process consists of three key steps: Get Data, Transform, and Deliver.
Get Data: Specifies the data source, often a Workday custom report, which must be web service-enabled for EIB use.
Transform: Optionally transforms the data into a format suitable for the external system, using various transformation types.
Deliver: Defines the method and destination for sending the transformed data.
The question focuses on the Transform step, seeking an option that uses a Workday-delivered transformation to output a format other than Workday XML, which is typically the default format for Workday data exchanges.
Analyzing the Options
Let's evaluate each option provided in the question to determine which fits the criteria:
Alternate Output Format (A)
Description: This option is available when configuring the Get Data step, specifically when using a custom report as the data source. It allows selecting an alternate output format, such as CSV, Excel, or other supported formats, instead of the default Workday XML.
Functionality: When selected, Workday handles the transformation of the report data into the chosen format.
For example, setting the alternate output format to CSV means the EIB will deliver a CSV file, and this transformation is performed by Workday without requiring the user to define additional transformation logic.
Workday-Delivered: Yes, as the transformation to the alternate format (e.g., CSV) is part of Workday's report generation capabilities, not requiring custom coding or user-provided files.
Output Format Other Than Workday XML: Yes, formats like CSV are distinct from Workday XML, fulfilling the requirement.
From resources like Workday HCM features | Workday EIB, it's noted that custom reports can use CSV as an alternate output format, and this is managed by Workday, supporting our conclusion.
XSL Attachment Transformation (B)
Description: This involves attaching an XSL (Extensible Stylesheet Language) file to the EIB for transforming the data, typically from XML to another format like CSV or a custom structure.
Functionality: The user must create or provide the XSL file, which defines how the data is transformed. This is used in the Transform step to manipulate the XML output from the Get Data step.
Workday-Delivered: No, as the XSL file is custom-created by the user. Resources like r/workday on Reddit: EIB xslt Transformation discuss users working on XSL transformations, indicating they are user-defined, not pre-built by Workday.
Output Format Other Than Workday XML: Yes, it can output formats like CSV, but it's not Workday-delivered, so it doesn't meet the criteria.
Custom Transformation (C)
Description: This option allows users to define their own transformation logic, often through scripting or other custom methods, to convert the data into the desired format.
Functionality: It is a user-defined transformation, typically used for complex scenarios where standard options are insufficient.
Workday-Delivered: No, as it explicitly states "custom," meaning it's not provided by Workday.
Output Format Other Than Workday XML: Yes, it can output various formats, but again, it's not Workday-delivered, so it doesn't fit.
Custom Report Transformation (D)
Description: This might refer to transformations specifically related to custom reports, potentially involving user-defined logic to manipulate the report data.
Functionality: From resources like Spark Databox - using custom report transformation, it involves using custom XSL transformations, indicating user involvement. It seems to be a subset of custom transformations, focusing on report data.
Workday-Delivered: No, as it involves custom XSL, which is user-provided, not pre-built by Workday.
Output Format Other Than Workday XML: Yes, it can output formats like pipe-delimited files, but it's not Workday-delivered, so it doesn't meet the criteria.

Explanation:
The scenario involves a Core Connector: Worker integration with two runs detailed in the integration events report. The task is to determine whether Brian Hill’s compensation change, entered on May 13, 2024, with an effective date of May 22, 2024, will be included in either run based on their date launch parameters. Let’s analyze each run against the change details.
In Workday, the Core Connector: Worker integration in incremental mode (indicated by "Last Successful" parameters) processes changes from the Transaction Log based on the Entry Moment (when the change was entered) and Effective Date (when the change takes effect).
The integration includes changes where:
The Entry Moment is between the Last Successful As of Entry Moment and the As of Entry Moment, and The Effective Date is between the Last Successful Effective Date and the Effective Date.
Brian Hill’s compensation change has:
Entry Moment: 05/13/2024 (time not specified, assumed to be some point during the day, up to 11:59:59 PM).
Effective Date: 05/22/2024.
Analysis of Run #1
Launch Date: 05/15/2024 at 3:00:00 AM
As of Entry Moment: 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM C Latest entry moment.
Effective Date: 05/15/2024 C Latest effective date.
Last Successful As of Entry Moment: 05/01/2024 3:00:00 AM C Starting entry moment.
Last Successful Effective Date: 05/01/2024 C Starting effective date.
For Run #1:
Entry Moment Check: 05/13/2024 is between 05/01/2024 3:00:00 AM and 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM.
This condition is met.
Effective Date Check: 05/22/2024 is after 05/15/2024 (Effective Date). This condition is not met.
In incremental mode, changes with an effective date beyond the Effective Date parameter (05/15/2024) are not included, even if the entry moment falls within the window. Brian’s change, effective 05/22/2024, is future-dated relative to Run #1’s effective date cutoff, so it is excluded from Run #1.
Analysis of Run #2
Launch Date: 05/31/2024 at 3:00:00 AM
As of Entry Moment: 05/31/2024 3:00:00 AM C Latest entry moment.
Effective Date: 05/31/2024 C Latest effective date.
Last Successful As of Entry Moment: 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM C Starting entry moment.
Last Successful Effective Date: 05/15/2024 C Starting effective date.
For Run #2:
Entry Moment Check: 05/13/2024 is before 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM (Last Successful As of Entry Moment). This condition is not met in a strict sense.
Effective Date Check: 05/22/2024 is between 05/15/2024 and 05/31/2024. This condition is met.
At first glance, the entry moment (05/13/2024) being before the Last Successful As of Entry Moment (05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM) suggests exclusion. However, in Workday’s Core Connector incremental processing, the primary filter for including a change in the output is often the Effective Date range when the change has been fully entered and is pending as of the last successful run. Since Brian’s change was entered on 05/13/2024―before Run #1’s launch (05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM)―and has an effective date of 05/22/2024, it wasn’t processed in Run #1 because its effective date was future-dated (beyond 05/15/2024). By the time Run #2 executes, the change is already in the system, and its effective date (05/22/2024) falls within Run #2’s effective date range (05/15/2024 to 05/31/2024). Workday’s change detection logic will include this change in Run #2, as it detects updates effective since the last run that are now within scope.
Conclusion
Run #1: Excluded because the effective date (05/22/2024) is after the run’s Effective Date (05/15/2024).
Run #2: Included because the effective date (05/22/2024) falls between 05/15/2024 and 05/31/2024, and the change was entered prior to the last successful run, making it eligible for processing in the next incremental run.
Thus,
C. Brian Hill will only be included in the second integration run is the correct answer.

The scenario involves a Core Connector: Worker integration with two runs detailed in the integration events report. The goal is to determine whether Brian Hill’s compensation change, effective April 30, 2024, and entered on May 13, 2024, will be included in either of the runs based on their date launch parameters. Let’s analyze each run against the change details to identify the correct answer.
In Workday, the Core Connector: Worker integration in incremental mode (as indicated by the presence of "Last Successful" parameters) processes changes based on the Transaction Log, filtering them by the Entry Moment (when the change was entered) and Effective Date (when the change takes effect). The integration captures changes where:
The Entry Moment falls between the Last Successful As of Entry Moment and the As of Entry Moment, and The Effective Date falls between the Last Successful Effective Date and the Effective Date.
Brian Hill’s compensation change has:
Entry Moment: 05/13/2024 (time not specified, so we assume it occurs at some point during the day, before or up to 11:59:59 PM).
Effective Date: 04/30/2024.
Analysis of Run #1
Launch Date: 05/15/2024 at 3:00:00 AM
As of Entry Moment: 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM C The latest point for when changes were entered.
Effective Date: 05/15/2024 C The latest effective date for changes.
Last Successful As of Entry Moment: 05/01/2024 3:00:00 AM C The starting point for entry moments.
Last Successful Effective Date: 05/01/2024 C The starting point for effective dates.
For Run #1 to include Brian’s change:
The Entry Moment (05/13/2024) must be between 05/01/2024 3:00:00 AM and 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM. Since 05/13/2024 falls within this range (assuming the change was entered before 3:00:00 AM on 05/15/2024, which is reasonable unless specified otherwise), this condition is met.
The Effective Date (04/30/2024) must be between 05/01/2024 (Last Successful Effective Date) and 05/15/2024 (Effective Date). However, 04/30/2024 is before 05/01/2024, so this condition is not met.
Since the effective date of Brian’s change (04/30/2024) precedes the Last Successful Effective Date (05/01/2024), Run #1 will not include this change. In incremental mode, Workday excludes changes with effective dates prior to the last successful effective date, as those are assumed to have been processed in a prior run (before Run #1’s baseline of 05/01/2024).
Analysis of Run #2
Launch Date: 05/31/2024 at 3:00:00 AM
As of Entry Moment: 05/31/2024 3:00:00 AM C The latest point for when changes were entered.
Effective Date: 05/31/2024 C The latest effective date for changes.
Last Successful As of Entry Moment: 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM C The starting point for entry moments.
Last Successful Effective Date: 05/15/2024 C The starting point for effective dates.
For Run #2 to include Brian’s change:
The Entry Moment (05/13/2024) must be between 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM and 05/31/2024 3:00:00 AM. However, 05/13/2024 is before 05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM, so this condition is not met.
The Effective Date (04/30/2024) must be between 05/15/2024 (Last Successful Effective Date) and 05/31/2024 (Effective Date). Since 04/30/2024 is before 05/15/2024, this condition is also not met.
In Run #2, the Entry Moment (05/13/2024) precedes the Last Successful As of Entry Moment (05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM), meaning the change was entered before the starting point of this run’s detection window. Additionally, the Effective Date (04/30/2024) is well before the Last Successful Effective Date (05/15/2024). Both filters exclude Brian’s change from Run #2.
Conclusion
Run #1: Excluded because the effective date (04/30/2024) is before the Last Successful Effective Date (05/01/2024).
Run #2: Excluded because the entry moment (05/13/2024) is before the Last Successful As of Entry Moment (05/15/2024 3:00:00 AM) and the effective date (04/30/2024) is before the Last Successful Effective Date (05/15/2024).
Brian Hill’s change would have been processed in an earlier run (prior to May 1, 2024) if the integration was running incrementally before Run #1, as its effective date (04/30/2024) predates both runs’ baselines. Given the parameters provided, neither Run #1 nor Run #2 captures this change, making D. Brian Hill will be excluded from both integration runs the correct answer.

Explanation:
The scenario describes a Core Connector: Worker integration configured to output Position Title and Business Title fields for workers who meet the Integration Population Eligibility criteria (Is Manager = true), with the Transaction Log service subscribed to the "Position Edit Event." The integration is launched with specific date parameters, and a test is performed by updating Jared Ellis’ Business Title via an "Edit Position" action. Jared is a manager, and the change is logged with an effective date of 05/27/2024 and an entry moment of 05/24/2024 07:58:53 AM. Despite this, Jared does not appear in the output. Let’s analyze why and determine the configuration element that needs modification.
In Workday, the Core Connector: Worker integration relies on the Transaction Log service to detect changes based on subscribed transaction types and processes them according to the date launch parameters. The integration is configured as an incremental run (since "Last Successful" parameters are provided), meaning it captures changes that occurred since the last successful run, within the specified date ranges. The date launch parameters are:
As of Entry Moment: 05/25/2024 12:00:00 AM C The latest point for when changes were entered into the system.
Effective Date: 05/25/2024 C The latest effective date for changes to be considered.
Last Successful As of Entry Moment: 05/23/2024 12:00:00 AM C The starting point for entry moments from the last run.
Last Successful Effective Date: 05/23/2024 C The starting point for effective dates from the last run.
For an incremental run, Workday processes changes where:
The Entry Moment falls between the Last Successful As of Entry Moment (05/23/2024 12:00:00 AM) and the As of Entry Moment (05/25/2024 12:00:00 AM), and
The Effective Date falls between the Last Successful Effective Date (05/23/2024) and the Effective Date (05/25/2024).
Now, let’s evaluate Jared Ellis’ change:
Entry Moment: 05/24/2024 07:58:53 AM C This falls within the range of 05/23/2024 12:00:00 AM to 05/25/2024 12:00:00 AM, so the entry timing is captured correctly.
Effective Date: 05/27/2024 C This is after the Effective Date of 05/25/2024 specified in the launch parameters.
The issue arises with the Effective Date. The integration only processes changes with an effective date between 05/23/2024 (Last Successful Effective Date) and 05/25/2024 (Effective Date). Jared’s change, with an effective date of 05/27/2024, falls outside this range. In Workday, the effective date determines when a change takes effect, and incremental integrations rely on this date to filter relevant transactions. Even though the entry moment (when the change was entered) is within the specified window, the effective date being in the future (relative to the integration’s Effective Date of 05/25/2024) excludes Jared from the output.
To include Jared Ellis in the output, the Date launch parameters must be modified. Specifically, the Effective Date needs to be adjusted to a date that includes 05/27/2024 (e.g., 05/27/2024 or later). This ensures the integration captures changes effective up to or beyond Jared’s edit. Alternatively, if the intent is to process future-dated changes entered within the current window, the integration could be adjusted to consider the entry moment as the primary filter, though this would typically require a different configuration approach (e.g., full file mode or a custom report, not standard incremental behavior).
Let’s evaluate the other options:
A. Integration Population Eligibility: Set to "Is Manager = true," and Jared is a manager. This filter is correct and does not need modification.
