Workday Business Process Guide

A business process is a set of tasks that people initiate, act upon, and complete to achieve a business objective. In Workday, business processes route tasks to the roles responsible for completing them according to security rules. Any user with the appropriate role can initiate a business process, such as an employee starting an expense report. As an example, the hire business process is initiated through the "Hire Employee" task and then routes the "Propose Compensation" step to the compensation role before completing.

Workday Concept: Business Process

What is a business process?

 A business process is a set of tasks that people initiate, act upon and
complete in order to accomplish a desired business objective
 Once a business process is initiated, Workday routes the tasks to the
responsible roles (users who are capable of completing the tasks based on
their membership in security groups) and enforces security and business
rules throughout the business process

Who can initiate a business process?

 Initiation of a business process is dictated by the person’s security role in


the system
 Any user with the appropriate role can initiate a business process
 Any employee can initiate an Employee Self Service (ESS) business process
(i.e. The Create Expense Report business process)
