Create Source Systems

Create Source Systems

Security:
Set Up: Map Worktags
in the Common Financial Management functional area.
You can create separate source systems for each external Enterprise Resource Planning endpoint (ERP) from which you want to upload consolidation data into Workday.
When legal entities transacting outside of Workday are on different instances of the same external ERP, Workday recommends that you create source systems for each entity in Workday. Creating separate source systems enables you to better manage the security permissions for Consolidation Data Mapping Definitions, Consolidation Data Mapping Tables, and file uploads.
For more information on configuring security, see Configure Consolidation Data Capture Security on Community.
