Steps: Set Up Unified Spend Actuals Discovery Board

To help you make informed decisions on managed and unmanaged spending across your organization, you can use a
Unified Spend Actuals
discovery board. This discovery board enables you to view and customize visualizations (vizzes) of actual spend from:
  • Ad hoc payment lines.
  • Expense report lines.
  • Procurement card lines.
  • Supplier invoice lines.
The
Unified Spend Actuals
discovery board uses the
Unified Spend Actuals
analytic data source to aggregate data for vizzes. This analytic data source is available to Prism Analytics customers only.
  1. Create a role-based security group for discovery board users. Workday secures data from the
    Unified Spend Actuals
    analytic data source by role on the cost center through the
