Workday Launched Thursday. How To Resources are Right Here!

The launch of VNSNY’s new Workday human resources, finance, and payroll system is this Thursday, October 31st. But no need to wait until then to find out how intuitive Workday is to use. You can begin taking a look at the Workday “just-in-time” resources in advance—they’re just a click away! All other resources will be available in time for go-live.

To view these resources, open your browser to the VNSNY Intranet first and then click on the links below. You can also access the Workday resources by going to the VNSNY Intranet home page and clicking on the Workday icon.

Quick reference guides for fast learning. Click here to view close to 50 step-by-step reference guides that will teach you how to use different Workday applications. (If the guides do not come up right away, try opening your Intranet browser first and then click on the link above.)

See-for-yourself training videos. Click here to watch 14 Workday training videos! In each of these 2- to 3-minute videos, a Workday expert demonstrates how to navigate a different Workday function.

FAQs! This list of frequently asked questions is designed to help you trouble-shoot the most common issues that Workday users encounter.

And introducing… Super Users! They’re our very own Workday caped crusaders—minus the capes! Over 100 VNSNY staff members across the organization have gone through special training so they’ll be prepared to answer any question about Workday that you might have. To find a Super User near you, just look for the special Workday Super User banner attached to his or her work area.  Click here for the list of our Super Users.

HRConnect—your friendly instructor of last resort. “If you still have questions after trying the guides, the videos, the FAQs and the Super-Users, you can always contact HRConnect via Ask HR,” notes Andrew Wise, VNSNY’s Vice President for Talent Management & Organizational Development.

Plus, stay tuned for a Webinar on time tracking. Three Web-Ex seminars will also be available starting in early November to explain how employees can log in their hours worked. Stay tuned for details.

Besides being reachable through the links in this article, the Workday resources will also be available on the VNSNY SharePoint site. “We’re working hard to make the shift to Workday as smooth as possible,” says Andrew. “To help the transition to Workday, I encourage everyone to check out these training materials, starting today!”
