Implementation of Workday Finance this July will coincide with preparation for FY24 merit. When UW shifts to Workday Finance — commonly referred to as ‘cut-over’ — select Workday processes will be temporarily limited or restricted. Specific cut-over details are still being worked out by the Finance Transformation (UWFT) team and the Integrated Service Center (ISC), but they will likely impact unit ability and/or the timeframe to correct Workday data in preparation for merit. It is, therefore, important to audit and begin correcting data now.
While merit specifics (e.g., merit percentage) have not yet been officially authorized by the provost and approved by the Board of Regents, UW plans to release the FY24 Merit Process Guide in early March 2023. When released, the guide will be available on the
Office of Planning and Budgeting website. The guide will have “TBD” placeholders that will be updated as information becomes available; however, general guidance related to data clean-up should not be affected. The expedited release of the FY24 Merit Process Guide is intended to support units in preparing for merit now instead of waiting until late spring quarter.
