Example: Create Dependent Publish Schedules for Datasets

This is an example of a publish schedule with a dependency.
As an HR Analyst, you’re responsible for creating a weekly report that includes employee hiring and turnover data from your New York office. You’d like the data in the report to be as fresh as possible. You need to:
  • Bring in the latest hiring and turnover data from your New York office every Monday morning.
  • Make the data available for reporting only after you’ve brought in the latest data.
  • Create a base dataset from SFTP. Schedule the integration to occur every Monday at 8 a.m. EST. Name the base dataset
    New York Hiring and Turnover Weekly
    . Run the integration once to enable the publish option.
  • Security:
    Prism Datasets: Publish
    domain in the Prism Analytics functional area.
If you're new to Workday, you don't have access to create or edit base datasets.
  1. Access the
    View Dataset Details
    report for the
    New York Hiring and Turnover Weekly
    dataset.
  2. From the related actions menu of the
    View Dataset Details
    report, select
    Publishing
    Create Schedule
    .
  3. In
    Run Frequency
    , select

  4. In

    Prism
    Dataset Integration Schedule: New York Hiring and Turnover Weekly

Workday publishes the
New York Hiring and Turnover Weekly
dataset only after the successful integration of data from the SFTP server.
