Payroll and Benefits Cutover

This KB lists resources and cutover dates related to the Workday implementation that are specific to payroll and benefits.

Data Audits

Audits of payroll related data will begin in March and run through June. The HR team will be working with departments to ensure all data within HRS and ancillary systems is correct in order to ensure a smooth transition to Workday. 

In June, employees, time approvers, managers, and HR will experience a number of hard deadlines related to payroll. It is imperative that employees and department staff understand and adhere to these deadlines to ensure payroll processes accurately and on time.
