Print Custom Reports after Design Deployment

Create a report design file and deploy it to Workday for use as a business form layout.
  1. Sign in to your Workday tenant and search for the custom report.
  2. Click
    Print
    to generate a PDF that applies the new report design. The
    Print Layout
    page displays with a message indicating that the print job has been submitted for processing.
    You can't print in Proxy mode.
  3. Click
    Refresh
    . Workday displays a link to the generated PDF file.
    A link to the PDF is also available in the
    My Reports
    area, as indicated by the
    Status
    message.
  4. Click the link to the PDF file, then click
    OK
    to open the file.
    PDFs generated for Workday custom reports might require you to install language packs when viewing the document using Adobe Reader. You only need to complete this task once. This is likely to happen if you're viewing a PDF that includes Chinese characters on a computer that isn't typically used for viewing Chinese documents. This is normal behavior and helps to reduce the size of the PDFs, by not including the required fonts in every PDF generated.
    Always print checks at 100% scale to ensure that the MICR line appears correctly.
