How Testing Supports Workday Extend and Prism Analytics.

Leveraging Workday Extend and Prism Analytics for Enhanced Business Insights.

Workday offers two powerful features—Workday Extend and Prism Analytics—that empower organisations to customise and extend the capabilities of the Workday platform, and gain deeper insights into their data. In this blog, we’ll explore how these features work, their benefits, and how Clientside Testing can help ensure their successful implementation.

Workday Extend:

Workday Extend is a feature that allows companies to tailor and extend Workday functionalities to meet their unique business needs. With Workday Extend, users can create custom applications, integrations, and workflows without requiring extensive coding knowledge. This user-friendly platform provides a non-technical interface for configuring Workday solutions to align with specific business processes. By leveraging Workday Extend, organisations can streamline workflows, automate tasks, and enhance overall productivity.

Benefits of Workday Extend:

Customisation: Tailor Workday functionalities to match specific business requirements.
Flexibility: Easily create custom applications and integrations without coding.
Efficiency: Streamline workflows and automate tasks to improve operational efficiency.
Scalability: Scale and adapt Workday solutions as business needs evolve over time.

Workday Prism Analytics:

Workday Prism Analytics is a powerful tool that enables organisations to gather, analyse, and visualise data from various sources across the enterprise. With Prism Analytics, users can create custom reports, dashboards, and data visualisations to gain insights and make data-driven decisions. By combining data from Workday’s core HCM and Financials modules with external data sources, Prism Analytics provides a comprehensive view of organisational performance and enables strategic decision-making.

Benefits of Workday Prism Analytics:

Data Integration: Consolidate data from multiple sources for a unified view of organisational performance.
Insights: Gain actionable insights through customizable reports and dashboards.
Decision-making: Make informed, data-driven decisions to drive business success.
Collaboration: Share insights and collaborate with stakeholders across the organisation.

Here’s how testing contributes:

Testing Workday Extend Customisations: When organisations utilise Workday Extend to tailor Workday functionalities, thorough testing is essential to verify that the customisations meet business requirements and operate as intended. Testing helps identify any issues or bugs in the custom applications, integrations, or workflows created through Workday Extend, allowing for timely resolution before deployment.

Testing Prism Analytics Reports and Dashboards: Similarly, testing is necessary to validate the accuracy and reliability of data visualisations, reports, and dashboards created with Prism Analytics. By conducting comprehensive testing, companies can ensure that the insights derived from Prism Analytics are accurate, actionable, and aligned with business objectives.

Ensuring Platform Integrity: Testing helps maintain the integrity of the Workday platform by verifying that customisations made through Workday Extend do not adversely affect the core functionalities of Workday. It ensures that the custom applications and integrations seamlessly integrate with existing Workday modules and workflows, preventing disruptions to business operations.

Validating Data Insights: In the case of Prism Analytics, testing validates the integrity of data sources and the accuracy of data transformations, calculations, and aggregations performed within reports and dashboards. This validation is critical for ensuring that stakeholders can trust the insights derived from Prism Analytics when making data-driven decisions.

Overall, testing plays a vital role in mitigating risks, ensuring quality, and maximising the value of Workday Extend and Prism Analytics implementations.
