Concept: Manage an Engagement

Workday enables these options for managing your engagements.
Option
Description
Duplicate an engagement
To copy an engagement, select
Duplicate
from the
More Actions
menu.
Run an engagement now
Workday sends engagement items 4 times each day. You can view the last and next run times on the
Engagement Builder
report.
To run an engagement as soon as possible, select
Run Now
from the
More Actions
menu. Workday moves the selected engagement to the front of the queue for the next run.
Search for an audience or engagement
Use these search prefixes to locate an audience or engagement in Global Search:
  • aud:
  • cam:
If the
View Audience
or
View Campaign
reports are hidden, you won't be able to use these prefixes to search. Access the
Hide Workday Delivered Report
task to determine if these reports are hidden.
Send a message
You can create a conditionally scheduled message as part of your engagement without assigning a learning course. To send a message independent of a learning course, click
Add Item > Message
.
Suspend an engagement
To suspend an engagement, select
Suspend Engagement
from the
More Actions
menu.
Workday suspends engagement items until you select
Resume Engagement
from the
More Actions
menu.
If you suspend an engagement, the engagement completes its run but won't run again. If the end date for your suspended engagement has not passed, reminders are still sent for suspended engagements and for learners with existing in-progress assignments.
To prevent learners from receiving reminders for a suspended engagement, use the
Waive Learning Assignment
task to waive the associated learning assignment.
Verify email notifications
Use the
Business Process and Integration Notifications Indexed
report to verify email notifications were sent. You can verify content, recipients, and timing.
View engagement run logs
To view your engagement run logs, select
View Run Logs
from the
More Actions
menu.
Click the number in the
Errors and Warnings
column to view details about the error or warning.
