Attach Files on Associated Intercompany Journals

Attach Files on Associated Intercompany Journals

  • Set up financial accounting structure.
  • Set up journal sources.
You can attach files on intercompany accounting journals so that Workday can copy them to any associated child intercompany accounting journal. Displaying the attached files on the child journals provides associated companies:
  • A strong audit trail.
  • Increased accountability.
You can also restrict access to the attached files on the child intercompany journals and prevent users in companies from accessing the attached files.
