Question #6 (Topic: Demo Questions)
You are creating a custom report that displays employee salary amounts. You need to ensure that compensation analysts have the appropriate security permissions to view this information for all employees.
How do you confirm the security group's access to salary amounts?
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
In Workday, access to sensitive data such as salary amounts is controlled at the report field level through security domains . Even if a user has access to the report itself or the data source, they will not be able to see secured fields unless their security group has permission to the domain that specifically secures that field .
In Workday, access to sensitive data such as salary amounts is controlled at the report field level through security domains . Even if a user has access to the report itself or the data source, they will not be able to see secured fields unless their security group has permission to the domain that specifically secures that field .
The Workday HCM Reporting documentation explains that report fields are securable items and are governed by domain security policies. To confirm whether compensation analysts can view salary amounts for all employees, you must review the domain security policy associated with the Salary Amount report field and verify that the appropriate security group has View (or higher) access.
From the Workday documentation:
“Security access to report fields is controlled by domain security policies. Users must have access to the domain that secures a report field in order to view its data.”
“Even when users have access to a report or data source, secured fields will not display unless domain permissions are granted.”
Running Activate Security Policy Pending Changes applies changes but does not confirm access. Assigning users to a security group does not ensure that the group has the correct domain permissions. Reviewing only the data source security is insufficient because salary visibility is controlled at the field/domain level.
Question #7 (Topic: Demo Questions)
You need a calculated field that returns whether or not the initiator for a Manage Goals event is the worker's manager.
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
The True/False Condition calculated field is used to return Boolean results (True or False) based on defined criteria. In this scenario, the field must evaluate whether the event initiator equals the worker’s manager. By setting that condition, the calculated field will return True if the initiator is the manager and False otherwise.
The True/False Condition calculated field is used to return Boolean results (True or False) based on defined criteria. In this scenario, the field must evaluate whether the event initiator equals the worker’s manager. By setting that condition, the calculated field will return True if the initiator is the manager and False otherwise.
From Workday Reporting documentation:
“True/False Condition – Creates a Boolean field that evaluates a condition and returns True or False depending on whether the condition is met.”
Thus, the correct answer is B. True/False Condition .
Question #8 (Topic: Demo Questions)
You transferred ownership of your report to an HR Analyst. Then, you run the Custom Report Exception Audit report, and a critical error appears next to the report you just transferred.
Why could this be?
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
When ownership of a custom report is transferred in Workday, the system immediately evaluates whether the new report owner has full security access to all components of the report. This includes access to the data source , all report fields , calculated fields , and any secured domains referenced by the report. If the new owner lacks access to even one secured field or domain, the report becomes invalid for that owner.
