Additional Guidance on Protecting Research Participant Data in Workday:

Grant & Contract Accounting (GCA) is happy to announce that Search by eGC1 is now available in Award Portal! Campus users have long used eGC1 (SAGE Application Number) to search for grants but, since Workday go-live, have been unable to do so. The new search function is now even easier as it auto-populates the mandatory letter and formats the data entered so users are more likely to get the results they’re looking for.

UW Finance Cube Released:

The Reporting & Analytics team (R&A) and Finance DATAGroup have released the new UW Finance Cube. This advancement connects users to Workday data, offering greater flexibility than traditional reports. The cube provides a comprehensive view of UW Finances for Fiscal Year 2024, including revenue, expenses, and beginning balances. Users can analyze transactions at various levels using dimensions like Ledger Account, Cost Center, Fund, Function, and more.

Post Award Grant Administration Stabilization Update

• GCA’s Award Setup backlog continues on a downward trend and is now under 800 items, an 12% decrease in the last two weeks and a 48% decrease since the start of the calendar year. The team is currently analyzing the most common reasons for returning items to campus with a goal of generating internal process improvements and creating clearer guidance for campus customers.

New Workday Dashboard for Shared Environment

• We're pleased to announce the launch of the Shared Environment Dashboard, now accessible within Workday. This dashboard has been specifically designed to support day-to-day operational tasks.
