<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> <u><b><span style="color: red;">Web Services vs API for Rookies</span></b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hi Guys, I am so sorry for writing back after a long gap! I was occupied with so many things and I got sailed away from writing. I am back now...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have got deluge of emails and requests,so I am writing again. I have observed that many of the HR professionals and people with zero knowledge on technical area are getting into Workday and a lot of freshers are showing interest to get into Workday jobs. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Most of them are in two minds and come with queries whether they have to write programs or mandatory to have technical experience on programming side ? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I suggest that to have knowledge is always good as you can understand the flow and the functionality easily.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">You will tend to hear about web services in <span style="color: #cc0000;">WORKDAY STUDIO,</span> so I am writing the difference between web services and API for better understanding. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As you know that functional area doesn't require much knowledge on the technical aspects but when it comes to the integration and Workday Studio, I feel its better to have an idea on the API and Web services ( SOAP, REST)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have already covered XML area in my blog. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am writing this for peers who doesn't have any technical background. I hope this workday blog helps them. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> <b><i><u><span style="color: #990000;">Web Service vs API :</span></u></i></b></span><br />
<b><i><span style="color: blue;">WEB SERVICE:</span></i></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A Web service is designed to have an interface that is depicted in a machine-processable format usually specified in Web Service Description Language (WSDL). Typically, “HTTP” is the most commonly used protocol for communication. Web service also uses SOAP, REST, and XML-RPC as a means of communication. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i>It's a service available over the web. In a simple way to understand, here goes an example. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: purple;"><i>Lets take the restaurant scenario:</i></span> A french customer visits an Indian restaurant and wants to order some traditional Indian food. The Hotel staff should be in a position to understand the french language to take the order and serve the customer their signature Indian dish. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">At this point, the waiter who understands the language will be taking the order from the customer and translates the same to the kitchen department to cook.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In this scenario, the 'waiter' acts as a WEB SERVICE and customer and kitchen as TWO DIFFERENT LANGUAGE applications. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A Web service is merely an API wrapped in HTTP. An API doesn’t always need to be web based. An API consists of a complete set of rules and specifications for a software program to follow in order to facilitate interaction. A Web service might not contain a complete set of specifications and sometimes might not be able to perform all the tasks that may be possible from a complete API.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The APIs can be exposed in a number of ways which include: COM objects, DLL and .H files in C/C++ programming language, JAR files or RMI in Java, XML over HTTP, JSON over HTTP, etc. The method used by Web service to expose the API is strictly through a network.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Medium:</span> HTTP/Internet</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Format:</span>XML/JSON</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><i>There are two types of web services -SOAP and REST</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><i>SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol)</i></span>- A web service that compiles to the SOAP web services specifications is a SOAP web service</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Medium:</span> HTTP ( POST)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Format:</span> XML</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i>W3C(world wide web consortium) defines the standards</i>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There are two SOAP web services specifications</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1) Basic <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>2) Extended</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* SOAP</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* WSDL</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* UDDI </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">All the information that happens between service consumer(CLIENT) and service provider(SERVER) is over a common format XML. XML message has a defined structure : SOAP MESSAGE consists of </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* Envelope</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* Header</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* Body</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Here is the SOAP XML structure:-</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><?xml version="1.0"?></span><br />

<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><soap:Envelope</span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope/"</span><br />

<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><soap:Header></span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">...</span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"></soap:Header></span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><soap:Body></span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">...</span><br />
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> <soap:Fault></span><br />

<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"></soap:Envelope></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Envelope:</span> It is the root element of a SOAP message. This is basic unit of the XML document which contains other units like Header and body. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Header:</span> A element provide the information about the message itself. Header might include complex types, routing information etc.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Body:</span> It contains actual data of the request that is meant to be sent to the server. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;">REST: REpresentational State Transfer</span>----- It is more flexible and less rigid than SOAP</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Medium:</span>HTTP (POST, GET,PUT,DELETE,...)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Format:</span> XML/JSON/TEXT</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">REST is often misunderstood in web service. A web service that communicates/exchange information between 2 applications using REST architecture is called as Restful web service . It is an architectural style . It doesn't have any protocol or strict specifications unlike SOAP and there is no central body controlling.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">REST defines a set of principals to be followed while designing a service for communication/data exchange between 2 applications. When these principles are applied while designing web services ( client-server interactions) we get RESTful web service.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The principals of REST Architecture that should follow to become a restful web service </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* Uniform Interface</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* stateless </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* cacheable etc... </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Resource: Everything is a resource </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">URI: any resource/data is accessed by a URI </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">HTTP: make explicit use of HTTP methods</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1)<span style="color: #cc0000;"> Resource:</span> everything is a resource ...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Example- </span>We are creating Human Resource tracking system ( HRTS). We can create this system on any platform and on any language and on any database at the back end. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">To develop HRTS, we should have some modules like employees which will have attributes like 'employee name' and 'employee ID' and then Department module like 'Department name' and 'Department ID' and other modules.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The concept of resource says that we can define any information on any module as resource.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We can define resource as 'employee' 'department'... every module we can name as resource.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2) <span style="color: #cc0000;">URI:</span> we can access resource/data through URI ( uniform resource identifier)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If the HRTS software is developed and hosted somewhere and we can access it by using the domain name/ employees to get the employees data</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">http://hrts.com/employees</span> ( we get all employees data).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If we want employee 26 details then we can access <span style="color: orange;">http://hrts.com/employees/26</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3) <span style="color: #cc0000;">HTTP:</span> let us see how we make use of HTTP methods:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">HTTP - GET, POST, PUT, DELETE are few methods. We can <span style="color: blue;"><b>C</b></span>REATE using POST</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><b>R</b></span>EAD using GET,<span style="color: blue;"> <b>U</b></span>PDATE using PUT and<span style="background-color: white;"> <span style="color: blue;"><b>D</b></span>E</span>LETE using DELETE----- <span style="color: blue;">CRUD</span> ( SHORT FORM)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">using HTTP methods along with URI, we can access/modify any resource or resource information.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> <b><i><u>COMPONENTS OF WEB SERVICES: </u>1) WSDL 2) UDDI</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i>WSDL- Web service description language</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Service provider publishes an interface for his web services that describes all attributes of the web services. This is XML based interface called WSDL.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">CLIENT (service consumer) - SERVER(service provider)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There are two ways a service consumer can get hold of this WSDL document</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1) If the service consumer and the service provider already know each other. The service provider can hand over the WSDL to the client and they can use the service.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2) When the service provider and the service consumer doesn't know each other... how can service consumer can get hold of WSDL document?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>Ans</b></span>: A web service provider publishes his web service (through WSDL) on an online directory from where consumers can query and search the web services. This online registry/directory is called UDDI ( Universal Description, Discovery and Integration)- It is an XML based standard for publishing and to find web services. It is like UDDI is a directory where the service provider will put WSDL documents where consumer can query and get hold of their choice WSDL document.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">************************************************************************************************************ </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><b>API ( Application Programming Interface)</b></span> and Web service serve as a means of communication.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The only difference is that a Web service facilitates interaction between two machines over a network. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">An API acts as an interface between two different applications so that they can communicate with each other.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">An API is a method by which the third-party vendors can write programs that interface easily with other programs.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">API may use any means of communication to initiate interaction between applications. <span style="color: #cc0000;"><b><i>For example</i></b></span>, the system calls are invoked using interrupts by the Linux kernel API.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">An API exactly defines the methods for one software program to interact with the other. When this action involves sending data over a network, Web services come into the picture. An API generally involves calling functions from within a software program.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In case of Web applications, the API used is web based. Desktop applications such as spreadsheets and word documents use VBA and COM-based APIs which don’t involve Web service. A server application such as Joomla may use a PHP-based API present within the server which doesn’t require Web service.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">An API is nothing but the flexibility between two applications to talk to each other irrespective of the different program.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Ex: Google map API, YouTube API</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Summary:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1. All Web services are APIs but all APIs are not Web services.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2. Web services might not perform all the operations that an API would perform.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3. A Web service uses only three styles of use: SOAP, REST and XML-RPC for</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">communication whereas API may use any style for communication.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">4. A Web service always needs a network for its operation whereas an API doesn’t need</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">a network for its operation.</span><br />

<i>The above document contains start tag, attribute, sub-elements,declaration and comments.</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>Root is the outmost element in the above case <message> </i></div>
<div>

<i>Attribute-( </i><span style="color: red;"><i>message status="urgent" type="friendly"</i></span>) </div>
<div>
<i>Name-value pair separated by "=" sign... similar to attributes in the HTML tags.</i></div>
<div>
<i>Attributes of elements are defined in the starting tag not at the end tag.</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>XML has become useful in three major areas</i></div>
<div>
<i>1) Putting data on the web</i></div>
<div>
<i>2) Storing/Sending system data</i></div>
<div>
<i>3) Exchanging data between applications.</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>Data described using markup language</i></div>
<div>
<i>Each individual piece of information is "marked up" A marker shows the meaning of the associated data-</i> <span style="color: red;"><i><name>Joy</name></i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"><i> Start tag-content-End tag</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div>
<i>A unit of data to which a meaning has been attached is called an "element". An element consists of 'Start tag', 'content','End tag'.</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>When required an "attribute" can be described in the start tag of an element showing more detailed information to be assigned to the data.</i></div>
<div>
<i><name id="26">Joy Joshi</name></i></div>
<div>
<i> </i><span style="color: red;"><i>.attribute.</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;">Mark: </span>Tag names are case-sensitive.They come in two flavours<span style="color: red;"> </span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;">1) Paired -</span> <title>Joy to the world</title></i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;">2) Empty: A single tag with no closing tag-</span> Elements require no data</i></div>
<div>
<i>Data can be provided through tag attributes</i></div>
<div>
<i>Ex: <customer number="CUST123" name="Joy"/></i></div>
<div>
<i> <span style="color: red;">Empty tag</span></i></div>
<div>
<i>Attribute value are always quoted strings...passing application must convert to other data types.</i></div>
<div>
<i>Can begin with and contain any characters except (Digits, whitespace,punctuation etc.,)</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>Example using tag attributes:</i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;"><customer number="CUST123" </span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;">status="VIP"</span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;">account manager="EMP007"</span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;"><name>Joy</name></span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;"></customer></span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<i>Customer has three attributes</i></div>
<div>
<i>1) Number</i></div>
<div>
<i>2) Status</i></div>
<div>
<i>3) Account Manager</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i> COMMENTS</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>XML uses comments like other languages.</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>Notes to a human being-Not interpreted by parsers.</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i> <!.. comment.. ></i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>Rule for using comments</i></div>
<div>
<i>1) No comments before XML declaration in the first line</i></div>
<div>
<i>2) No comments within other markups</i></div>
<div>
<i>3) Don't use "--" ( two hyphens) within comment text.</i></div>
<div>
<i>4) No nested comments.</i></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I am so overwhelmed by the response for the WD blog; it encourages me to come up with more topics. Thanks one and all for your comments and email communications.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">A couple of days’ back, I was chatting with my friend as he wanted to shift to a new challenging role. After working for several years on SAP platform for one of the Big five companies, he was not satisfied with the kind of work he was doing. I suggested him to go for BIG DATA. He was perplexed by my suggestion and wanted to take some time to think about it. I was taken back this time as he asked me to tell in detail about the BIG DATA. He couldn’t get the information from his peers as well as from his seniors who are having decades of technical and management experience.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I was so pumped to tell him; I love sharing knowledge THAT I KNOW. He was happy to hear me as usual, then I thought why not I write about 'Big data' to encourage my friends who are looking for a career change and for the ones who want to adopt the latest technology that is in demand.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I hope it will help the young talent to understand the difference between <span style="color: red;">Analytics </span>and <span style="color: red;">Big Data</span> so that they can be on the right career track. HERE YOU GO…</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Let’s take an example, how can analytics help in running a factory? The main components of a factory are machinery, human capital and real estate infrastructure. It will be a great relief to the management instead of routine checks if we can predict when a machinery will develop a slag or when can we expect the workers to go on strike or leave their jobs. It’s too hard to imagine to be worked out, but there is a solution for this<gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="19e79ff2-bf21-4a11-9d89-6c1f7b23dffd" id="f4ad3715-eb78-4bf0-8163-4b7b08d3c4a4"> …</gs></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: red;">Yes, analytics</span> can help in doing all this. Machines are made up of a number of components. When a machine is not working properly, some components may have been damaged. If we can place sensors in appropriate regions of a machine and track their output, using historical data, we can very well predict when a damage is about to happen to the machine in real time based on a live feed from these sensors. A recent study by one of the top consulting firms elaborates on how advanced analytics can improve manufacturing to reduce process flaws, save time and money. And the applicability of analytics is practically limitless. From helping run businesses better to saving lives in the field of healthcare, analytics are everywhere. If it’s not anywhere, it will be in the next few years as more and more firms and industries are understanding the importance of analytics and implementing the same.</span></div>

This gives the information you need to know to make smart investments in your talent. By using existing capabilities within workday<gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="8499f39b-0241-4130-9449-9ab281d485c0" id="bf5f1475-17aa-448a-ad40-7abd5fd9432a">,</gs>such as custom fields. We can view worker data coming from data sources outside of workday to give an inside view of low-level details used in reports. Workday BIG DATA ANALYTICS makes it simple to match together from workday and non-workday data source with built in data connectors to common gate resources. Data analysts can easily connect to any data source of any type at any volume with easy to use interface on data analysts with tools to quickly and easily exploring combined data from multiple sources with hundreds of built in functions. Data analysts can perform simple joins and filters with more advance analysis, such as ‘ Forecasting’.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></b></div>

Workday BIG DATA analytics are unified with the rest of the workday. It requires no separate infrastructure and no separate security.

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" />As one of the world's most popular web destinations, YAHOO! is an expert in helping people to find what they want. So it's no surprise that when HR leadership went searching for a new approach to managing the company's HR organization, they found exactly what they were looking for: Workday</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>Human Capital Management (HCM).</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em><br /></em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>Kristen Robinson, Senior Vice-President of Global HR programs, rewards and operations, led the charge. "I have to say, I didn't come into Yahoo! thinking, I need to switch out the core HCM," says Robinson, who arrived at the company in 2010. "But what I did see early on is that for my team to be</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>effective, we needed to do HR differently. I quickly realised that technology was absolutely critical in enabling HR to achieve its goals.</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<strong>Workday to the Rescue</strong></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>That's exactly what Workday offers. With its Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, information is available from anywhere, at any time, to managers and employees alike. The time and cost of implementation is lower since nothing needs to be deployed and managed on-premise;</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>instead of costly, time-consuming upgrades, Workday provides regular vendor-managed updates. As a result, the software is never out of date, one of Robinson's</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>chief concerns."The fact that we can have the latest and greatest in the Workday solution as it evolves over time is just really exciting. We don't have to do a new implementation that</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>takes 12 months and costs us another million dollars," says Robinson. "Every time you have an update — which is every four months — there's more capability available</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>to you. There's more functionality. That is really, really important to us."</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>The sheer usability of Workday was another aspect that appealed to Robinson and her team. "If our managers, employees, and HR teams don't want to access our system, it means someone else has to do those things for them. And that's not the best use of our investment in HR," she observes. Workday will free up HR resources for other, more strategic tasks Workday also offers the global capabilities Yahoo! needs for its widespread workforce, including support for multiple languages and currencies and country-specific security and regulatory support. Finally, with Workday, Yahoo! will have a "single version of the truth"-visibility into the entire workforce, the critical element for making strategic decisions. As Robinson says, "The data and the analytics will help us provide decision support to our executives. Not just on an employee-by-employee basis, but at the aggregate level.</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<em>The present market is into Big data analytics which Workday has adopted to suit the customer needs.</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<em>In this highly scattered data world, there is a demand for refined data to be presented at the tick of fingertips, big data analytics is the right choice for the Workday HCM customers for their streamlined data to be presented in an effective way. </em><em> </em><em>What is the importance of big data in IT WORLD?</em></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<em>Workday big data analytics can help decision makers to leverage their companies' data in proper format. It enables organizations to consolidate structured and unstructured data and combines them with workday data to gain new business insight. It gathers the raw data and segregates to identify the data which is required for analysis rather than going through large quantities of data, we can add or modify the data to do analysis. It has nearly 220 pre-built applications to do analysis quickly where we can modify each template to meet customer needs.</em></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: red;">Note:</span></b> Many organizations will not use Workday
account creation for security, but will use an ACTIVE DIRECTORY approach, single

employee is a part of)</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Our role and security group will control how much personal
information will be available to see and if any actions we can perform. When
hiring employees, the hire BP will trigger and the employee is added to’ All
employees' security group’. When workday account is created, employee adds
to ‘All users security group’ and employee as SELF so that that self-service
can be enabled. By this feature employee can view benefits, pay history and
personal data where as Manager as no ability to see the information of their
direct reports.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In factory
defaults for security policies, a manager cannot view an employee’s birth date
or social security number. A manager also cannot view an employee’s emergency
contact information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For the

be configured through the business process. Whether approval is required or not

This helps them to monitor their team for proper planning and to achieve strategic goals to the organization by taking quick decisions with the data available through ‘ MY TEAM’ worklet. This feature has the access to the data and tasks related to their responsibilities. Here BP and policies play an important role; based on them we can involve managers at different levels. They may initiate a business process such as a job change or approve it or simply get notification that it has been completed.</span></div>

Employees can set up direct deposit and be divided between those accounts. In the pay worklet on the all about me landing page is the ‘ Payment Elections’ hyperlink task that employees can select to set up their accounts.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.600000381469727px;">Workday introduced Workday Recruiting, a long-awaited new module in the company's growing suite of cloud-based HR and Financ</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.600000381469727px;">ial Management applications.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.600000381469727px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span> <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In many ways this product has the potential to disrupt the landscape for corporate recruiting software. Rather than being designed as a tool for recruiters which integrates with other HR systems, Workday started from scratch and developed a totally unified solution: one which manages all elements of the recruitment process, focused on the needs of applicants, managers, recruiters, as well as HR.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;"><span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>The Corporate Recruiting Software Market</i></span></strong></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The market for corporate recruiting software, now over $1.5 billion in size, is <b>red hot</b>.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">These tools started more than 20 years ago with the advent of resume scanning systems that took paper based resumes and parsed them into a relational database. The systems were later named "applicant tracking systems" (ATS for short), and companies like Taleo (now owned by Oracle) and BrassRing (now owned by IBM) exploded with growth in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Since then dozens of companies have built applicant tracking systems and nearly every HR software company sells one.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Why are these systems so important? The entire job application process has gone digital. Thanks to the internet and companies like LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Facebook, Indeed.com, and others, companies can now post jobs all over the internet and receive hundreds of applicants in minutes ("resume overload" is now one of the biggest challenges recruiters face).</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">All these job applications have to be stored, ranked, and routed to managers for review. Candidates have to be interviewed and screened, then offers have to be written and people need to be on boarded. The process is complex, high volume, and filled with opportunities to create a positive or potentially negative experience for candidates.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Tools to recruit have become very sophisticated. In fact, the whole discipline of talent acquisition looks much more like marketing and much less like staffing every day.</span></span></div>
<ul style="line-height: 18.600000381469727px; list-style-type: none; margin: 10px 0px 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 1.5em !important; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<li style="list-style-type: disc; margin: 0px; padding: 2px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Today employers can source candidates through LinkedIn, Entelo, Gild, TalentBin, and dozens of other "smart search" tools which index people the way Google indexes pages.</span></li>
<li style="list-style-type: disc; margin: 0px; padding: 2px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">They can purchase and post targeted advertisements all over the internet to find engineers, scientists, nurses, and other workers in highly targeted locations.</span></li>
<li style="list-style-type: disc; margin: 0px; padding: 2px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">They can use "candidate relationship management" systems to build talent networks and interest groups, communicate with passive candidates (called "farming"), and manage the flow of candidates from "vaguely interested" to "ready to apply for a job";</span></li>
<li style="list-style-type: disc; margin: 0px; padding: 2px 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">And they can build custom websites, videos, and other digital assets to attract people.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.600000381469727px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In addition, talent acquisition is one of the biggest markets for Big Data and groundbreaking assessment science. Dozens of vendors now offer analytics tools which analyze hundreds of facts about candidates and help you predict who is likely to succeed. (Evolv, IBM, PeopleAnswers, and many others). Pre-hire assessments (which are used by fewer than 40% of all companies) can significantly improve the quality of hire - and today these assessments feel more like games than tests.</span></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Most of these science and assessment tools come from smaller vendors, making it even more important for companies to have a scalable recruitment platform to integrate everything into an easy to use, manageable environment.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For corporate HR leaders, this whole marketplace is dauntingly complex. Not only do companies have to post jobs, manage advertisements, create an extended employment brand, and manage candidate networks, but companies must open up this whole network to internal candidates and manage employee referral programs as well. Most recruiters tell us that internal candidates and referrals are the strongest tool they have.</span></div>

<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Need for Integrated Recruitment Software</span></strong></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Companies need a software platform that manages this entire process. Not only must HR managers integrate third party tools, build a workflow to source and assess candidates easily, and manage internal referrals and talent mobility, they need analytics and data management to help monitor, improve, and optimize all this effort. Talent acquisition is the most important part of HR and makes up a $120+ billion worldwide market – anything companies can do to make the process more effective or efficient pays for itself many times over.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Until the last few years, software to support this market was developed by innovative and specialized talent acquisition software companies. Today most of these companies have been acquired and these tools are integrated into nearly every vendors' talent management system. (Oracle, SAP-SuccessFactors, IBM, CornerstoneOnDemand, Saba, PeopleFluent, SilkRoad, Halogen, Infor, and nearly every other talent management software company now has a recruiting module.) The only major ERP vendor that did not have such a system was Workday.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><strong>Enter</strong><strong> </strong><strong>Workday</strong></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Workday's entire product strategy is based on developing a unified system which manages all areas of financial and human capital management. To date the company has been highly successful with its core HR application and partnered with other vendors in the area of recruiting and learning management (the two "book-ends" of talent management software). This has presented a challenge for Workday customers, most of which selected the product because they want a single integrated solution to replace their existing tapestry (read "mess") of various HR products.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Understanding this market and the requirements, nearly two years ago Workday's product team started interviewing customers and designing a totally unified solution. The design point focused on building a new type of system: one which addresses the needs of candidates, managers, recruiters, and HR – all unified into Workday’s platform.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Because Workday has a unique architecture made up of an object-oriented database and an extensible and configurable workflow engine, the company could "rethink" what a corporate recruiting application would look like - free from the legacy of the "applicant tracking system" design. They also chose to take a mobile-first approach, designing a mobile interface for candidates and managers from the beginning.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">While the company started its efforts more than two years ago, Workday waited to release this product until it was competitive in the market. Six design partners were part of the development and most of them plan on using Workday to replace their existing ATS. So Workday’s strategy is not just to deliver a more unified product with features only available through ERP integration, but also to take the existing incumbents (who have years of R&D behind their systems) head on.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The result is a unified system which addresses the needs of all participants in the recruiting process: hiring managers, interview team members, recruiters, and of course candidates. By looking at talent acquisition as a process which is both an external and internal one (internal talent mobility is a critical part of recruiting), Workday has built a platform that addresses the entire talent lifecycle, integrated with Workday’s core HR application to provide a rich set of functionality for all stakeholders in the process.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The system is built around a set of features that include workforce planning (creating pools of needed people and looking at both internal and external candidates), sourcing (importing data from LinkedIn and other systems), interviewing and hiring candidates, and onboarding – with analytics embedded throughout.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<i><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In the area of sourcing, one of the most fast-changing part of recruiting, Workday’s recent acquisition of Identifie gives the company some powerful technology to better search and source candidates from external networks (Facebook, Yahoo, Google, as well as LinkedIn), giving the company the opportunity to deliver a disruptive tool for sourcing.</span></b></i></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Workday Recruiting is also totally enabled for mobile devices. The company developed the entire product on the mobile platform first, enabling them to make the mobile version feature-equivalent with the web version.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For example, managers who are in the middle of an interview can quickly see comments and feedback from other interviewees on their phone, available as comments or in an activity stream from other interviewers. Recruiters have full access to the various stages candidates are going through and can monitor interviews in real time through their mobile device. Candidates can find jobs, browse job descriptions, apply, and monitor their application through mobile. And a special feature which Workday built with LinkedIn lets candidates immediately see who else they know at the company they’re applying for in real time while they browse job openings!</span></div>

<div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In the area of analytics, Workday’s embedded technology makes this product “analytics-ready” out of the gate. The demo shows a variety of standard reports: sourcing effectiveness, open positions, candidates by stage, etc.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Some of the more unique analytics include “headcount plan to pipeline”which essentially shows in real time how well your staffing process is filling in your workforce plan. This one feature demonstrates the power of an integrated recruiting solution: now managers and executives have a real time view of their candidate pipeline mapped against open headcount and workforce plan by role or other dimensions. You can immediately and easily see “are we ahead, behind, or on plan” for recruiting at any level of detail.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">

<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">A number of complementary partnerships are in place, including providers of background checking, video interviewing (Workday integrates HireVue), and job boards, demonstrating the completeness of Workday’s approach. The company is not planning on working with every third party recruiting tool and vendor in the market, but we believe the ecosystem will grow rapidly.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Remember that the applicant tracking market is very mature, so the incumbent vendors have hundreds of advanced features, analytics tools, and interfaces with third parties. While Workday Recruiting is new and this level of maturity and broad market adoption will take time, the product is well designed, filled with features, deeply integrated with Workday HCM, and leverages the user interface, embedded analytics, object orientation, and end-to-end process management of the Workday platform.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Impact of this Announcement on the Marketplace</span></strong></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This announcement changes the recruitment software marketplace in several ways.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">First, many Workday customers use third party products for recruitment (many use Oracle) and often have millions of dollars invested in these platforms. While these products work well, most customers want a solution that is easier to use, more collaborative, and more unified with internal talent processes, which they can now buy from Workday. If Workday executes well, the market for non-Workday recruiting software among Workday customers will dry up.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Second, for companies considering a new HR or talent management platform, this announcement puts Workday in a more favorable competitive position. I’ve talked with many companies who chose Oracle or SuccessFactors because of their end-to-end talent applications. While Workday still does not have an LMS, the availability of recruitment makes Workday a more competitive talent management vendor.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Third, this announcement accelerates the end of the “standalone applicant tracking market” for large enterprises. Oracle (Taleo – the market leading ATS) now bundles its ATS as part of its ERP solution and IBM (Kenexa – another market leading ATS) now includes its ATS as part of its integrated Talent Suite. SuccessFactors (SAP), Infor, PeopleFluent, Sum Total, SilkRoad, CornerstoneOnDemand, Halogen, Saba, and most other talent management software providers now have integrated recruiting systems. This forces the remaining standalone ATS vendors (companies like Jobvite, SmartRecruiters) to focus on mid-market and mid-sized enterprises.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">(Remember that nearly every company with more than 100 employees needs recruitment software, so the mid-market remains enormous with lots of opportunities for growth.) Fourth, a new recruitment ecosystem will be created. There are hundreds of assessment, background checking, advertising, search, mobile recruiting, and analytics vendors in this market. As of today, these vendors will see Workday as an important new platform. They will shift resources toward Workday, driving innovation on the Workday platform.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
</div>
<div style="line-height: 19.200000762939453px; margin-bottom: 1.18em; margin-top: 1.18em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">While the product is brand new and has only been tested by early adopters so far, Workday’s product is a serious first release with many unique features. We believe the company will continue to invest aggressively in this space (it’s one of the fastest growing segments in HR software) and this product is likely to become a major part of Workday’s business in the years to come.</span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i><b>The Burden of Enterprise System Integration</b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The integration of enterprise systems is an expensive and complex issue for most IT organizations. Regardless of the applications—on-premise, cloud-based, or a combination of both—systems integrations typically eat away a good percentage of most IT budgets. Instead of innovating and </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">adding direct value to the business, IT staffs are spending more and more time on their integration infrastructure (e.g., middleware upgrades, security patches, database </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">updates, and router replacements).Do not assume you have to shoulder the heavy burden of enterprise systems integrations alone. Different systems, </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">disparate technologies, continuously growing costs, never-ending maintenance, and immeasurable support headaches—with issues such as these, isn’t it time to demand more from your solutions provider? Modern enterprise vendors like Workday are ready to help.</span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i><b>The Problem with Traditional ERP</b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i><b><br /></b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Traditional ERP applications were built primarily on a </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">client-server model that did not take into consideration </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">the need for information, data-processing, and </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">communication compatibilities with other systems. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">To remedy this disconnect, application programming </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">interfaces (APIs) were added later to accommodate </span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">system-to-system integration. This low-level approach </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">increased the options available for integrations, but </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">unfortunately also greatly increased the cost and </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">complexity of building and supporting them. In addition, </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">much of the integration to traditional ERP was completed </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">at a data level using SQL. Typically, achieving a more </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">comprehensive integration from the ERP system </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">to necessary bolt-on systems required significant </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">programming, which only added to the cost, complexity, </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">and rigidity of these integrations.</span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><i>The Workday Approach: Integration in the Cloud </i></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><i><br /></i></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Human capital, payroll, and financial management </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">systems necessarily need to interact in a variety of </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">ways with other internal and external systems and </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">data sources. Unlike traditional enterprise application </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">providers, Workday understands the importance of </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">integration to core systems of record and started with </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">integration as fundamental architectural and application </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">design criteria. Workday’s approach is for connectivity </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">to other applications and resources to be simpler </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">to build, deploy, manage, and evolve over time—a </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">significant and long- awaited change from the cost, </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">complexity, and rigidity of connecting to traditional </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">enterprise systems. By offering a variety of packaged </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">solutions and integration tools as well as the ability </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">to deploy integrations to the Workday Cloud, Workday </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">helps to relieve customers of the historical burden of </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">systems integration.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><i> To simplify systems integration, Workday provides the following solutions and tools:</i></b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><i><br /></i></b></span></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1. Open, Standards-Based Web Services APIs. At the foundation of our approach, Workday provides </span></i><i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">comprehensive standards-based web services APIs to support all integrations to and from Workday.</span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2. Integration Cloud Platform. The Workday Integration Cloud Platform is a proven, enterprise- class integration platform as a service (iPaaS) that enables Workday, customers, and partners to build integrations to and from Workday and deploy and manage them in the Workday Cloud.</span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3. Integration Cloud Connect. Workday offers a growing ecosystem of packaged integrations and </span></i><i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">connectors to customers. These offerings are 100% built, supported, and maintained by Workday as well as run and managed in the Workday Cloud. This vendor-supported approach significantly shifts </span></i><i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">the cost, risk, and burden of integrations from the customer to Workday.</span></i></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b><i><span style="color: red; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></b></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Clearly, you can build any integration you want against the Workday API using your own middleware technology of choice, for example Microsoft.NET, TIBCO, or Oracle Fusion Middleware. </span></i></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Many Workday customers do just that. However, there are several major advantages to using the Workday Integration Cloud:</span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">•Integrations surface naturally inside the Workday user interface. You can view the integrations, launch them, schedule them, secure them, include them in Workday business processes, configure notifications around them, and audit and log them—all from within the application.</span></i></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">•Both packaged and custom integrations run on Workday’s software and hardware infrastructure in our data centers. You do not need to license or use any on-premise integration middleware, which can greatly simplify the deployment and management of integrations.</span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">•Finally, although completely based on open standards, Workday’s integration tools are also highly optimized for efficiently building</span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">•Integrations to and from Workday. Purpose-built packaged components that handle much of the </span></i><i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">plumbing aspects of integration-building free you to focus on the critical business logic.</span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Overall, Workday’s packaged integrations and tools are widely proven in a variety of demanding situations and offer a lower-cost, lower-risk path to deliver needed integrations in support of your deployment. </span></i></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">At the core of Workday are open, standards-based APIs </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">that give complete programmatic access to business </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">operations and processes. </span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">These web services-based APIs provide an integration </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">format (SOAP/WSDL or REST) that is interoperable with </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">all the leading client-side languages and integration </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">middleware platforms. In addition, the Workday APIs </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">are fully versioned, which means customers that build </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">an integration against any particular release of Workday </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">are guaranteed those integrations will continue to work </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">across future Workday updates. </span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">• Business Management Services are the primary way </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">to programmatically interact with Workday and </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">directly correspond with the major functional areas </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">of Workday (e.g., Staffing, Benefits, or Financial </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Management). The operations within these services </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">correspond with business events and business </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">objects within Workday (such as “Hire Employee” </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">within Staffing or “Get Journal” within Financial </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Management). Operations return extensive data sets </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">but can also be configured via “Response Groups” </span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">to return a subset of possible data (e.g., contact </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">information, position information, etc.)</span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">• Reporting Services, also known as Reports-as-a- </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Service (</span>RaaS<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">), provide a flexible, user-defined </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">means to get data out of Workday. All of the reports </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">created using Workday’s built-in report writer can </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">be set up to deliver data via RSS, REST XML, or </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">traditional SOAP-based messages with the simple </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">click of a checkbox. This includes customer-defined </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">calculated fields.</span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">• Reporting Services effectively provide a mechanism </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">within Workday for customers to define and create </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">their own custom APIs. If only a subset of fields </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">within Workday Human Capital Management </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">services are needed for a specific integration, then </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">a custom API that contains only those needed fields </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">can be built. This API can then be consumed by </span></i><i style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Workday or any third-party integration tool.</i></div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">• Outbound Messaging Services are used to provide real- time notifications to external applications </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">when business events occur within Workday. For example, the workflow behind the “Hire” event </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">in Workday could be configured to publish an outbound message to a subscribing third- party </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">system. Upon receipt of the real-time notification, the subscribing system could then query Workday </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">(using the public API) to get details about the “Hire” (e.g., employee information, job related </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">information, etc.) and then take appropriate action.</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">• Infrastructure Services expose Workday metadata to external applications so integrations can be </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">enriched with additional functionality. For example, external applications can monitor the execution </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">of integration events that are happening within Workday. With this metadata, external applications </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">can see not only the status of their current integrations but also gain insight into when and </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">how data will come from Workday prior to the events occurring. This type of transparency gives </span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">business users greater visibility into inter-system processing than ever before</span>. </i></div>

</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i><div>
1. Get Data </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In the “Get Data” phase, a data source is <i><div style="display: inline !important;">
designated. In 95% of cases, this is a custom report </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
(RaaS). If you are specifying a Report Data Source, </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
you can choose the format in which the report </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
results are delivered: normal XML, simplified XML, </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
CSV, JSON, GData, or RSS. Don’t worry if these </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
sound confusing—they just mean you can get data </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
straight out of the system in a variety of formats </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
which may minimize or remove the need for </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
subsequent transformation. You can also specify a </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
Workday Web Service endpoint as the data source </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
for an EIB.</div>
</i></div>
<div>
<i><div style="display: inline !important;">
<br /></div>
</i></div>
<div>
2. Transform </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At this point, you can either choose from the set of <i><div style="display: inline !important;">
predefined (XSL) transforms, or specify a new one </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
that you will define. The out-of-the-box options </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
include transforms to CSV and Excel formats. New </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
transforms must be uploaded as valid XSLTs.</div>
</i></div>
<div>
<i><div style="display: inline !important;">
<br /></div>
</i></div>
<div>
3. Deliver </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The output resulting from executing the EIB <i><div style="display: inline !important;">
can either be attached back to your tenant, or </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
alternatively delivered to an external endpoint. </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
Supported transports are SFTP, FTPS, HTTPS, email, </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
WebDav, and AS/2. You can optionally compress </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
or encrypt documents with a PGP key. You can <i><div style="display: inline !important;">
also control the created filename, any sequence </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
numbers, and document retention policies where </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
appropriate. Once an EIB is defined, it can be </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
run by any authorized user. When it runs to </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
completion, its status (and any associated output </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
files) can be viewed by searching for the EIB run </div>
</i><i><div style="display: inline !important;">
(and its associated integration event record)</div>

<span style="font-weight: 700;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">EIB & Custom XSLT & Workday Web Services (WWS)
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There are times when Workday does not present output in the desired format for simple integration
tasks. One example is upper-case and lower-case letter. Workday stores people’s names in mixed-case,
but another system might require the last name appear as all upper-case letters. Another example might
be Social Security Number. SSN is typically formatted as a 9 digit numeric value (if unmasked). Another
system could require that the data be passed but, only the last 4 digits. In this case an Extensible
Scripting Language Transformation (XSLT) could be implemented with the EIB.
</span></div>
<ul>
<li>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 700;">Formatting</span>: If Workday data comes out of the system and is incompatible with the external
system, XSLT can be used to transform the data. Some common examples are date fields –
Many external systems require a different date format from Workday. XSLT can be used to
reformat the data to suit the endpoint’s needs.</span></div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 700;">Conditional Logic</span>: The standard EIB transformations do not allow for conditional logic. There are times when the output format should be different based upon the value of a particular data element. An example might be a contingent worker vs. a full time employee. Using if/then logic, the output can be tailored to which type of worker the XSLT is attempting to transform.</span></div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 700;">Custom Output</span>: Finally,an integration can be scheduled to process based on the scheduling criteria that is defined by the user and the passage of time (for example – the first day of each month). The benefit is that the integration does not need to be manually launched each time. Another example would be to launch a benefit carrier integration each Friday at 6pm. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 700;">Custom XSLT is Implemented in the Configure Integration System step. </span>Remember the Steps to

<div class="page" title="Page 5">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: rgb(85.900000%, 89.800000%, 94.500000%); font-family: 'Tahoma'; font-size: 12.000000pt;">WORKDAY STANDARD REPORTS
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #dbe5f1; font-family: Tahoma;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Before introducing Workday's Report Writer and creating custom reports, it is a good idea to first discuss
the Standard Reports that are delivered in Workday.
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As of the writing of this guide there are more than 1000 delivered Standard Reports in two distinct
̳flavors‘ or types. The first type is a XpressO report. These reports are NOT able to be copied and then customized but can generally be configured based on the restrictions of the report format. Good examples of a XpressO report are the audit reports delivered for the payroll audit. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div class="page" title="Page 6">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The second type of delivered report is a Report Writer report. Reports are accessible by searching for
Workday Standard reports and then further defining your search by category or multi-category.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'; font-size: 10.000000pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'; font-size: 10.000000pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="page" title="Page 13">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: rgb(85.900000%, 89.800000%, 94.500000%); font-family: 'Tahoma'; font-size: 12.000000pt;">BUSINESS OBJECTS AND DATA SOURCES
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: rgb(85.900000%, 89.800000%, 94.500000%); font-family: 'Tahoma'; font-size: 12.000000pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Workday stores your data as business objects- organizations, workers, positions, and so on- which can be
thought of as database tables or worksheets in Excel. Just as a database table or worksheet has columns
and rows, a Workday business object has fields and instances. A business object is composed of a set of
related fields, similar to how a table or spreadsheet is composed of a set of related columns. <b><i>Instances
of a business object in Workday are like rows in a table or spreadsheet</i></b>, with each instance representing a
unique occurrence of that type of object such as an organization or worker. A business object can have
no instances, one instance, or many instances. Workday automatically links related business objects
together.
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;"><b><i>The first and most important step in developing a custom report is choosing a Data Source</i></b></span>. Data
sources are defined and delivered by Workday. A data source has a primary business object. Workday
delivers different data sources for the key primary business objects. The same primary business object
may be represented by more than one data source depending on filtering and roles required. Each data
source associated with a primary business object has its own security.
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The access defined for a data source controls whether a user can create or run a custom report based on
that data source. Different data sources for a single primary business object may be delivered by
Workday to allow reporting on different sets of instances, depending on the security access of the user.
Only data sources that are authorized for security groups to which you are assigned are displayed in the
prompt list. You should not select data sources in the ―Do Not Use category. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Each custom report has exactly 1 Data Source. Each Data Source has exactly 1 Primary Business Object.
The Primary Business Object is important because it dictates the list of Related Business Objects that are
available to include in that report. The Related Business Objects have a 1:1 or 1:M relationship to the
Primary Business Object. Since many reports and integrations focus on Workers (a superset of
Employees and Contingent Workers), we will focus on the Worker business object Data Sources.
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There are two types of data sources--- Standard and Indexed.Within standard data sources you will find that many data sources all reference the same business object.For example, there are about 35 data sources that all reference worker/employee. Indexed Data Sources have filters that allow us to have one data source for a business object. Multiple filters can then be associated with that business object. Only Indexed data sources can have filters. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A data source can be designed to return all instances of the primary business object (All Workers), or it
can have built-in filtering logic defined by Workday. If it has built-in filtering, the filter comparison
value(s) can either be built into the data source (All Active Employees) or designed so the user is
prompted for the comparison value when running the report (Employees by Organization, which always
prompts the user for an Organization).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">For Reports pertaining to a Worker that focus on a Worker‘s current data or their data in a point in time:
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">WORKER (Primary Business Object)
o ALL WORKERS
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Every Data Source has a Primary Business Object. The result is that when you report against a particular
Data Source the output will yield 1 instance (row) for every instance of the Primary Business Object.
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">Example:</span> The ALL ACTIVE EMPLOYEES Data Source will yield one instance of data for every employee
that is active. The number of instances could be reduced by adding a filter to the report definition.
</span></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The Standard Report called Data Sources lists all data sources grouped by their primary business
object. This report is a valuable resource when you are determining which data source to use in your
report. It gives a description of each data source, lists built-in prompts and as well as which security
groups have access to it. </span></div>

<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<ul style="list-style-type: none;">
<li>
<span style="font-family: 'Calibri'; font-size: 12.000000pt;">Organizations enable you to group together resources, workers, costs, and other
organizations for business process routing, security, analytical, and reporting purposes.
</span><br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'; font-size: 12.000000pt;"><br /></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-family: 'Calibri'; font-size: 12.000000pt;">Generally, organizations have members and roles that support a specific business function.
Workday delivers a number of different organization types for different functional purposes
that are independent from one another.
</span><br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'; font-size: 12.000000pt;"><br /></span></li>
<li>
<span style="font-family: 'Calibri'; font-size: 12.000000pt;">For example, your supervisory organization reflects the reporting structure, and this may be
</span><span style="background-color: rgb(100.000000%, 100.000000%, 100.000000%); color: rgb(20.000000%, 20.000000%, 20.000000%); font-family: 'Arial'; font-size: 11.000000pt;">completely different from your costing structure for which cost centers and regions are used. </span><br />

create a separate company for each
internal entity with a separate tax ID. </span><br />

impact, such as hiring or terminations.
Employees and contingent workers
are assigned to a cost center when
hired. You can roll up cost centers into
cost center hierarchies, which can only

Locations can be structured as a

hierarchies have organizational roles

purposes. Location hierarchies can
also be structured as a hierarchy
whereby Location Hierarchy </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;"><span style="color: red;"><b>X</b></span></span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;"> can be

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">has fields and instances. </span></div>

For example, purchase </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">order lines are linked to a purchase order header, the purchase order header is linked to a </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">supplier, the supplier is linked to a company, and so on. </span></i><br />

However, in some cases it seems like we’re missing some things. For example, company cars are frequently a benefit in Europe, and one’s HR system often tracks them. PeopleSoft has a few pages to this point–the car is set up, it’s applied to an individual. An individual is attached to a car plan for eligibility. It all ties together at the end of the day and enables you to have the basis of the data required by the UK government P11D reporting. When we asked WD about this, 1) they didn’t understand the requirement 2) they have no car pages, the best you can do is set up a car under the company property pages (where you won’t have the required data fields that you need, such as c02 emissions) 3) no such report is pre-existing in WD (according to the WD supplied resource doing the demo). So now we’ll be stuck, having to make an access database, or something else on the side, to support the business requirement.</span><br />

As a global company, we have offices and employees in almost every country in the world.<br />
<br />
Much of our North American Workday implementation was based upon US requirements, with a handful of Mexico and Canada business needs sprinkled in. This design, configuration and use became 'the global footprint'.<br />
<br />
Now that we're looking at European countries as part of our next wave of implementation, in general the current use is getting challenged. In addition, the design is getting extended for business requirements that did not exist in the US, e.g. contract data.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
What is European contract data?</h3>
<h3 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
</h3>
First, I'm not talking about contractors. :) In Europe, most countries have the concept of employment contracts, so prior to accepting an employment offer, the contract provides a contract offer to the candidate (i.e. future employee), and the candidate may choose to sign 'as is' or negotiate some of the contract clauses. Then both the candidate and a company representative sign the contract to make it official. Each country will usually have different things that they put into their contracts, depending on local business practice. There is no 'Euopean contract'.<br />
<br />
<br />
If you get a big promotion such as from non-manager to manager or to a high position, you may get a new contract. Otherwise, for smaller promotions, your contract would just get an addendum with any new details.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
What kind of data is in a European contract?</h3>
<h3 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
</h3>
Often, you'll have some general and overarching principles that apply to all employees, such as an ethics policy or general details about working conditions.<br />
<br />
A contract will often hold basic data, such as the employee's name, home address, and job data such as title/position, the title/position that the role reports into, weekly hours, pay frequency, pay rate, hire date, seniority date (if differing for benefits calculations), notice period, probation date, etc.<br />
<br />
<b>As well, you'll find some 'eligibility' items </b><br />
<ul style="line-height: 1.4; margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em;">
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">if a company provides a contribution to a pension on the employee's behalf, what is the percent</li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">if a company car is provided, what is the level/budget or allowance in lieu of car</li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">holiday entitlement</li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">private medical scheme, if offered</li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">what sort of sick pay you are entitled to</li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">etc.</li>
</ul>
<h3 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
</h3>
<h3 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
What is the Workday functionality?</h3>
<br />
Workday gives us a page for contract data, it looks like this:<br />

<ul style="line-height: 1.4; margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em;">
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">Workday has the usual 'per country' configuration, so that you can set up your Contract Types per country, which is helpful.</li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">The attachments and comments feature is also there, so that is useful if we want to attach a copy of the contract.</li>
</ul>
Some of the job-related data found in the contract will be on the 'regular' Workday job pages. Other data such as pension or health, we can try to store on the benefits screens. However...<br />
<br />
<h3 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
Where we're challenged in Europe, trying to use Workday</h3>
<br />
There's a lot of great fields on this page, which we would definitely use. But we're struggling to figure out where to put the rest of the contract data. It's like we were invited to dinner and only served the appetizer. My current thought is that this page was designed without European input. Mexico does have more of a concept of contracts, so maybe that was the driver, who knows.<br />
<br />
Here are some areas that are providing heartburn at the moment. And specifically, our payroll systems in the countries do have the concept of contract data, and would like to receive it on an interface from Workday. Our HR people as well would like to be able to store and view this data. So where are the disconnects?<br />
<br />
<h4 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
<span style="color: purple;">1. Notice period</span></h4>
<h4 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
<b> </b></h4>
This particularly pains me, as it's such a basic concept that any European based HR system would contain. A notice period is included in your employment contract. The higher your position, the longer it is likely to be. None of this '2 weeks notice' in Europe!Notice period in the UK and Germany will be for 3 months. High level executives may have 6 months or a year even.<br />
<br />
This applies to both the employer and the employee, and may differ, although if we could just get the employee one, that would be great.<br />
<br />
Notice periods are often a 'date in words', for example: 3 months, 6 weeks, etc. There is an added complexity to some, such as 1 month to the end of the quarter. I've heard some other companies try to simplify and specify a number of day or weeks.<br />
<br />
In addition, local labor law may specify a minimum statutory period, but as a company you may wish to put a longer notice period into place.<br />
<br />
<i><b>Workday has no functionality in this area!</b></i><br />
<br />
There is a Workday Brainstorm (Workday's mechanism to make change requests to the application) from other companies to at least get a 'notice date' added.<br />
<br />
<h4 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
<span style="color: purple;">2. Dual contracts</span></h4>
<h4 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
</h4>
This comes up in various EU countries, in particular where we have better benefits than our NA counterparts. :) Often, an employee has a regular contract, and as a part of that may receive maternity benefits from either/both the company and/or government, depending on the country.<br />
<br />
The employee on maternity may receive their regular benefits, but may want to work part time during maternity leave. Usually in this case, the company will need to make a new contract with the relevant employment information.<br />
<i><b><br /></b></i><i><b>Workday only allows for one active contract at a time!</b></i><br />
<br />
Again, there's a Brainstorm to get this changed, or at least configurable to allow for two simultaneous contracts.<br />
<br />
A workaround is to use Workday's 'multiple jobs' functionality. If you put the employee into two distinct positions, the employee may have two active contracts at the same time. However, that's a lot of work to enable, both from a functional and technical side, just to get some minimal contract data into place on a 2nd contract.<br />
<b><br /></b><span style="color: purple;"><b>3. Contract renewal</b></span><br />
<br />
In Europe, for better or for worse, it's more difficult to terminate an employee. Often, we hire people on in temporary contracts. Depending on the country, you are allowed to extend the contract a certain number of times, but after extension number x, it automatically converts the emp into a 'regular' contract (with all corresponding rights).<br />
<br />
<b><i>Workday missed to include this functionality!</i></b><br />
<br />
<b>Workday workaround: </b> Use the freeform 'Contract ID' field and get the data input folks to consistently put in '0001' for 1st contract, '0002' for 2nd contract, etc. I don't like using freeform fields in this manner, as you end up doing extra auditing as people forget the 0's or make it length 5.<br />
<br />
There's a Brainstrorm for this one too.<br />
<br />
I could continue on here with my online gap analysis, but I think you get the idea.<br />

Why is this especially irritating?</h3>
<h4 style="margin: 0px; position: relative;">
</h4>
<b>PeopleSoft has a lot more functionality!</b> Granted, we probably only using 10% of the fields on the pages, but they met our needs. In my 'notice period' example above, we set up a contract clause for each notice period, such as the 'non competing' clause listed below. As each employee has a contract, you then choose the relevant notice period clause for that employee.<br />

In Summary</h3>
<br />
We're continuing to review the data against what our payroll systems need to receive. As the contract data pages are not very robust in Workday, we'll be left having to 'MacGyver' it in, or not store it at all.<br />
<br />
In discussions with our Workday certified consulting partner, the only thing they can tell us to do is: either don't store the data in Workday, or make custom objects, custom IDs etc. to accommodate it, recognizing that you don't have enough custom objects free to meet the needs. As well, it would just be generally ugly from a data entry and reporting perspective, as well as not in harmony in one place, with some fields on the contract data pages and others independently as custom objects etc.<br />
<br />
We currently have a workable solution in PeopleSoft, and in going to Workday it's seen by the users a going backwards as Workday does not come to the table with a real solution here.</div>
