Steps: Customize Requisitions

You can customize the requisitioning process by:
  • Writing new descriptions for shopping options.
  • Hiding or requiring Workday-optional fields.
  • Customizing the guided tour on the
    Create Requisition
    task.
If you opt into the
Requisitions Experience Unification
feature from the
Maintain Feature Opt-Ins
report, we direct you from the
Create Requisition
task to the
Requisitions
worklet for a more streamlined requisitioning process. See Create Requisitions in the Requisitions Worklet.
