- Worktags are labels assigned to transactions in Workday that indicate their business. Worktags are meant to be combined to help users easily categorize transactions in Workday and establish common relationships through classification. Worktags help you find information more easily, filter searches down to focused results, and analyze information in aggregated and summarized reporting by business dimension
- Company is the primary balancing Worktag; Fund is the secondary balancing Worktag
- Driver Worktags are identified by Program, Grant, and Project
- Selection of a Driver Worktag will auto-populate Worktags like Cost Center, Fund, Appropriation, Function, Allocation CIP, Activity
- Revenue Category, Spend Category, Bank Code are Worktags to provide more granularity.
