Week of 5/29 Workday Finance Stabilization Update

Post Award Grant Administration Stabilization Update

  • GCA’s Award Setup and Reporting teams continue to make great progress and have reduced their backlogs by 28% and 20%, respectively, over the last week.
  • The volume of returned Award Setup Requests and Modification Requests have increased five weeks in a row, increasing in volume by almost 7%. We encourage our campus partners to visit the GCA Workflow and Backlog Tracking webpage to view returned items by Cost Center.
  • Unbilled Accounts Receivable for cost reimbursable awards have decreased by 53% from April 1, 2024, to May 20, 2024.
  • When Fixed Price Surplus (FPS) budgets in legacy FAS were converted to Residual Balance Worktags (RBW) in Workday, the Facilities and Administrative (F&A) portion of the balance was not removed when the balance was loaded. A journal to charge the F&A will post by 5/31/2024. Please visit the GCA webpage Closing Your Award for more information regarding Residual Balance transfers.

University Controller’s Office Reminders – Fiscal Year Close

  • Please ensure all academy shared environment accountants and staff who conduct financial transactions review the FY2024 Fiscal Year End close website for year end requirements as we approach our first enterprise close in Workday Financials.
