Steps: Set Up Student Leave of Absence Returns

Steps: Set Up Student Leave of Absence Returns

To comply with your institutional practices, you can:
  • Require students to request returning from a leave of absence.
  • Route return requests to the appropriate roles for approval.
By default, Workday automatically returns students on the return date specified on their leave of absence request.
  1. Configure the
    Student Request Return from Leave of Absence Event
     business process and security policy in the Student Records functional area.
    This business process enables:
    • You and your students to request their leave of absence returns.
    • You to route return requests to the appropriate roles for review and approval.
    • You to create a questionnaire for the business process using the
      Run Create Questionnaires
       task. The questionnaires enable you to collect information about why a student is returning from a Leave of Absence.
  2. Access the
    Maintain Return from Leave of Absence Policy
     task.
    Configure whether or not students in an academic unit and level need to request returning from a leave of absence.
    Security:
    Set Up: Academic Records
     domain in the Student Records functional area.
  • You can use the
    Request Return from Leave of Absence for Student
     task to request returns for students.
  • Students can use the
    Request Return from Leave of Absence
     task to request returns.
  • When the business process completes, Workday:
    • Sets the program of study record back to
      In Progress
       as of the specified return date.
    • Flags the student for the nightly job orchestration to incorporate the financial aid impacts of their reactivation.
