What report allows you to view compensation components that a worker is: * Assigned and eligible for * Unassigned and eligible for * Assigned and ineligible for?
Correct Answer: C
TheEmployee Compensation Auditreport is the primary Workday-delivered report designed to analyze the relationship betweencompensation eligibility rulesandactual plan assignments. It explicitly categorizes compensation components into three critical groupings: * Assigned Eligible Compensation Components * Unassigned Eligible Compensation Components * Assigned Ineligible Compensation Components This makes the report uniquely suited for identifying configuration gaps, data integrity issues, and compliance risks. Compensation administrators commonly use this report to validate allowance, bonus, and salary plan assignments after eligibility rule changes, organizational updates, or mass events. Other reports do not provide this level of eligibility comparison. Compensation Summary focuses on current compensation amounts only. Employee Compensation Details by Job Profile provides structural views without eligibility analysis. Compensation Rule Assignment lists rules, not worker-level assignment outcomes. Therefore, the correct answer isEmployee Compensation Audit, making optionCcorrect.
Question 27
You want to ensure managers assign the correct cost centers to new hires. You decide to limit the list of cost centers managers can select at the time of hire. How do you accomplish this?
Correct Answer: A
In Workday HCM, organizations such as cost centers are assigned to workers during hire and job change events. To ensure data accuracy and governance, Workday provides two key configuration controls for organizations: default organizations and allowed organizations. While default organizations prepopulate values, only allowed organizations control which values are selectable. To limit the list of cost centers that managers can select during the hiring process, you must configure the allowed organization on the supervisory organization. This configuration defines the specific cost centers that are valid for workers hired into that supervisory organization. By restricting the allowed cost centers, Workday ensures managers can select only from an approved list, preventing incorrect or unauthorized cost center assignments. Configuring a default organization-whether on the supervisory organization or from the position-only sets an initial value. It does not prevent the manager from changing the cost center to another valid option. Therefore, options B and C do not meet the requirement to limit selection. Option D is incorrect because job profiles are not used to control organizational assignments such as cost centers; they define job architecture, not financial or organizational governance. From a Workday Pro HCM best-practice perspective, allowed organizations are the primary mechanism for enforcing organizational assignment rules at the time of hire. Applying this configuration at the supervisory organization level ensures consistent cost center usage for all workers hired into that organization while still allowing flexibility across different parts of the enterprise. Therefore, the correct and fully Workday-verified answer is Configure the allowed organization on the supervisory organization.
Question 28
What report allows you to view each worker's compensation details , including total base pay, compensation package, and compa-ratio , for one or more organizations you manage or support, and optionally their subordinates?
Correct Answer: D
The Compensation Spreadsheet is a powerful Workday reporting and analysis tool that allows managers and HR partners to view detailed compensation information for employees across one or more organizations they manage or support. It supports side-by-side viewing of key metrics, including: * Total base pay * Compensation package * Compa-ratio * Position in range * Allowances and bonuses The spreadsheet format is specifically designed for managerial review, planning, and analysis , with optional inclusion of subordinate organizations. It is widely used during compensation review cycles and off- cycle analysis. Other reports have more limited scope: * Employee Compensation Audit focuses on eligibility mismatches * Job Profile reports focus on structure, not worker-level pay * Total Rewards is employee-facing and not manager-analytic Therefore, the correct answer is Compensation Spreadsheet , making option D correct.
Question 29
A company with salaried and hourly employees has headquarters in London , with additional offices in New York and Milan . What configuration allows the company to enter one total compensation amount for employees based in Milan ?
Correct Answer: A
In Workday, the Manage Basis Total configuration enables organizations to enter a single total compensation amount , which Workday then allocates across multiple compensation plans according to predefined rules, percentages, or limits. This is particularly useful in countries like Italy, where compensation discussions often focus on total compensation rather than individual components. When Manage Basis Total is enabled on a compensation basis, administrators or managers can enter one total amount during a staffing or compensation event. Workday automatically distributes that amount across salary, allowances, and other included plans based on the compensation basis configuration. Eligible Earnings Override is a payroll-specific tool and does not control compensation entry behavior. Total Base Pay and Total Salary & Allowances are reporting or calculation concepts, not data entry mechanisms. By using Manage Basis Total , the company ensures consistency, simplifies compensation entry, and enforces internal rules for Milan-based employees. Therefore, the correct answer is Manage Basis Total .
Question 30
What options are available when configuring a business process notification?
Correct Answer: D
When configuring Business Process Notifications in Workday, administrators can define the recipient based on a specific Workday Account . This allows precise targeting of individuals or security groups (e.g., HR Partner, Manager, or specific role-based accounts) who should receive the notification. Option D is correct because "Recipient based on Workday Account" ensures the system routes the notification to the appropriate user or group dynamically, based on the context of the business event. This is essential for process transparency and timely action. Option A ( Sender based on Workday Account ) is incorrect - the sender is system-defined ("Workday Notification"), not configurable by user account. Option B ( On exit ) and Option C ( Trigger on In Progress ) are not valid notification configuration options; triggers are defined by process status changes such as "Awaiting Action," "Completed," or "Denied."
