Reference: Drill Through to Workday Transactions and Objects

Workday actuals transactions and business objects can contribute to data when you load the data through Workday Data Management. Workday Data Management is a combination of data sources, data loaders, and metadata loaders set up to bridge HCM and Financials to Adaptive Planning.
You can't drill through to Workday objects from:
  • Web reports.
  • Dashboard charts.
  • OfficeConnect
    .
  • Excel Interface for Planning
    .
Each area of your model uses different methods to drill into
Workday
and have different requirements.
