Steps: Set Up Account Provisioning Groups
You can use the account provisioning functionality to manage access to third-party
applications for workers. You can add workers to provisioning groups from the related
actions menu on a worker profile.
When you hire or terminate an employee, you typically need to request a change in their
access to third-party applications. Example: You hire a new sales person and they need
access to WebEx and Salesforce. If you submit the requests outside of Workday, your IT
department must manage them individually. Instead, you can request access for all 10
people at once through Workday provisioning groups.
Provisioning groups provide these benefits:
- Your managers or HR staff drive the account provisioning process instead of the IT department.
- You can manage organizational changes from your enterprise HCM application.
