Workday provides these reports as worklets that you can add to your Report Administrator dashboard:
  • Custom Report Exceptions by Owner
    Contain reports:
    • That fail exception audits, organized by report owner.
    • Enabled as worklets but not available on any dashboards.
    • Temporary reports past their deletion date.
    • That you can't share with any users.
    • Containing items marked
      Do Not Use
      .
  • Custom Reports Not Run
    A list of reports not run in the tenant for the past 365 days. Helps to identify reports that might have fallen off user radars or might no longer have value.
  • Recently Created and Modified Reports
    Reports added or modified in the last 90 days. This can help you measure or identify needed education and change management activities specific to these updates.
  • Recently Updated Calculated Fields
    A list of calculated fields created or modified in the last 7 days. Useful when researching when report results unexpectedly change.
  • Scheduled Reports That Will Fail
    Proactively identify actively scheduled reports with scheduling exceptions and that will fail on their next scheduled run. A commonly caught error is a nonexpired report schedule associated with a user who is no longer authorized to run the report.
  • Slowest Reports Run in Background
    A worklet that displays the average report execution time, in milliseconds. Sorted with the slowest average time at the top. By default, the report returns results from the last 90 days, however you can adjust the number of days.
You can also add tasks including these to the Dashboard Menu for quick access:
  • All Custom Reports

When you hide standard reports, Workday doesn't display them in searches. If you can't find a specific report, access the

task to determine if you hid it.
Once you configure the dashboard, you can add it as a worklet to your Home page. You can also access the Report Administrator dashboard on Android, iPad, and iPhone devices.
