Workday cloud data transformation

Whether it is Human Capital Management, Payroll, Financial Management, Student, or others implementing Workday is a major undertaking.

Too often, the responsibility for the translation of data from legacy systems to Workday is put squarely on a team who are not data migration experts. In most organizations, internal IT staff and business-process subject-matter-experts are not expected to be data migration experts.

Data migration is a critical and risky component. Risks associated with insufficient data migration solutions often lead to:

•  Project delays or failure

•  Increased project cost

•  Inability to use all Workday functionality

•  Broken interfaces

•  Inaccurate reporting, both internally and to local/federal governing bodies

•  Poor utilization of key staff members’ areas of expertise
