Reference: Academic Progress Evaluation Triggers

Workday displays a student’s academic progress on the
Academic Progress
report on the Academics profile group of the student profile.
To ensure that this report displays the most accurate and recent data, Workday automatically evaluates academic progress and updates the report:
You can also manually evaluate academic progress using the
Launch Academic Progress Evaluation
task. See Evaluate Academic Progress.
On the academic progress report, the
Last Evaluated Date
displays the date that Workday most recently evaluated the academic progress for the student.
This table lists the events that cause Workday to automatically evaluate academic progress, either immediately or through the nightly job.
