What's New on Site?
Welcome to ConfigBot for Workday!
WEB RELEASE
Admin Only Role
A new user role called Admin Only has been added, which allows users to manage other users, assign and update their permissions, and access reports.

Updated Modal Layout
The Automation modal layout has been redesigned to improve usability and provide a cleaner, more structured interface. The new design introduces a two-column layout that clearly separates system information, authentication inputs, and advanced configuration options. Key instance details are now grouped in a dedicated System Info section, allowing users to quickly verify settings before execution. Authentication fields are better organized with improved spacing, visibility controls, and conditional inputs. Advanced automation steps are placed in a separate panel, reducing clutter and making configuration easier. Overall, the updated layout enhances readability, efficiency, and the user experience when starting automation workflows.

New Modules
Benefits
The Benefits Module enables organizations to automate the comparison and management of Benefits-related configurations across environments. ConfigBot helps validate setup components such as Benefit Providers, Benefit Annual Rate Types, Insurance Coverage Targets, Benefit Groups, Health Care Rates, Benefit Event Types, Coverage Targets, Cross-Plan Insurance Maximums, Insurance Rates and Coverage, Passive Event Rules, Benefit Plan Year Definitions, Benefit Defaults, Coverage Types, Enrollment Prerequisites, Eligibility Rules, and Enrollment Event Rules.
By automating these configurations differences and ensuring consistency across tenants, ConfigBot reduces manual validation effort, enhances benefits administration accuracy, and supports reliable migration, compliance, and ongoing maintenance of Benefits configurations in Workday.
