- Select the workspace that best suits your preferences or requirements.
- Navigate to the generated workbook (in my case, Iteration #2) and open the workbook.
- Navigate to the worksheet tab labeled as ‘Time Calculation Tags”.
- Provide the “Name of Time Calculation Tags” in the given format, add “Row Number”, select Yes or No for “Temporary” and select Yes or No for “Hide from Calendar View” and then select the processing status as “Pending”.
- Close the Workbook, navigate back to your workspace, click on the hamburger menu and select start configuration option.
- The Start Configuration pop-up window will appear. Enter your Workday password and provide any relevant execution notes. Then, select the checkbox for the “Time Calculation Tags”. Finally, click the "Confirm and Start" button.
- You can track the progress of iteration by clicking on Information Icon (i).
- Once the status shows "Complete," then return to the workbook to confirm that the data was successfully added. The following rows and their fields will be highlighted in green, indicating successful execution. Additionally, the Processing Status will be changed to Processed.
- To confirm the changes made, navigate to the ‘Time Calculation tags' window by searching for it by name using the search bar on the Workday Home page.
