Steps: Create Workday Credentials in Adaptive Planning

Sync your integration system user (ISU).

For headcount planning with a workforce planning configuration manager, work with a Workday-certified implementer to set up the feature. If you don't have access to an implementer, contact your Customer Success Manager to engage Professional Services.

Enable the

OAuth 2.0 Client

setting on the

Edit Tenant Setup - Security

task.

Security:

Data Designer
permission in Adaptive Planning.

Integration Operator
permission in Adaptive Planning.

Set Up Tenant Setup - Security
domain in the System functional area.

Security Administration
domain in the System functional area.

For headcount planning with a workforce planning configuration manager, ensure the integration system security group (ISSG) for your ISU includes Modify access to the Set Up: Adaptive Planning
domain in the System functional area.

You can create a credential to authenticate a specific Workday tenant and ISU with a Workday data source in an Adaptive Planning instance. A Workday credential must exist to:

Create a Workday data source in Adaptive Planning.

Activate a Workday Adaptive Planning instance in the workforce planning configuration manager in Workday.

Create loaders to import data and metadata from Workday to Adaptive Planning.

Create a Workday external system for drillback into Workday.

Publish plans from Adaptive Planning to Workday.

Publishing plans from Adaptive Planning to Workday requires a Workday credential configured with a JWT bearer token.

If you use workforce planning in Adaptive Planning, we create a Workday credential for you. You must edit the credential so that you can use it.

In Adaptive Planning, go to

Integration

Design Integrations

Create or edit your Workday credential in the

Credentials

section of the

Component Library

If you create a new Workday credential, name your credential so you can identify the Workday tenant it connects to.

If you use workforce planning, we already created a credential named Workday Credential for you to edit.

We automatically populate the

Client Grant Type

with Jwt Bearer Grant
. To publish plans, we require your credential to use the Jwt Bearer Grant
client type.

We automatically populate the

Connection

with

Local

indicates that this credential matches the Adaptive Planning instance initially paired to a Workday tenant by the Provisioning team. Only local connections let you set up Workday external systems for drilling and publishing plans from Adaptive Planning.

To create a credential for a different Workday tenant, select

External

Selecting

External

prevents you from using a credential for publishing plans and drilling from Adaptive Planning to Workday.

As you create the connection to a different Workday tenant, consider:

옵션	설명
