Reference: Default Establishment Assignments

Workday assigns default establishments to workers according to this logic:
  • If there's no establishment in the employment agreement/offer, then Workday retains the existing establishment for a job or position if the location and legal entity remains the same.
  • If there's no establishment in the employment agreement/offer and if the location or company changes for a job or position, then establishment populates from the legal entity/location.
  • If there's no establishment in the employment agreement/offer and the legal entity/location has multiple establishment options, you'll have to select an establishment manually.
  • If there's no establishment in the employment agreement/offer and legal entity/location, you'll have to select an establishment manually.
