Reference: Workday Everywhere Notifications

Workday Everywhere notifications can be organized into these frameworks:
  • Workday Everywhere.
  • Workday Tenant.

Workday Everywhere Framework

You can use the
Set Up Notifications for Workday Everywhere
task to enable Workday Everywhere to deliver Slack or Microsoft Teams notifications to workers.
Workday Everywhere delivers notifications to all workers, including those not connected to Workday for Slack or Microsoft Teams. These notifications provide a direct option to connect but exclude specific data or actions to protect sensitive information. Workday recommends that all workers connect to Workday for Slack or Workday for Microsoft Teams to get the most out of notifications.
Workday Everywhere supports these notification types for connected users:
Notifications

You can configure Workday Everywhere to deliver notifications when someone receives anytime feedback.

  • The feedback, badge, recipient’s name, and giver’s name unless the feedback was given anonymously.
We deliver anytime feedback notifications to everyone the feedback is shared with. Example: Unless the feedback is private, we notify the recipient and their manager.

Workday Tenant Framework

You can configure Workday Tenant framework notifications for business processes on the
Edit Tenant Setup - Notifications
task where Workday Everywhere channels are available to be added to notification routing rules for the Approvals notification type in the
Business Processes
parent notification type.
Workday Everywhere supports these notification frequencies:
  • Immediately
  • Mute
When you enable this feature, you can configure these frequencies in your personal notification preferences.
You must include an
Approval
business process step and enable the corresponding system notification to receive notifications through these channels, as the
Action
step is not supported. See Reference: Edit Tenant Setup - Notifications and Create Notification Routing Rules.
