As teams get ready for year-end, your Workday tenant benefits from a check-up before heading into a new year. Year-end is a natural checkpoint, but it’s easy to let routine maintenance slip when teams are heads-down closing out the year. That’s why we’ve created our Annual Calendar + System Maintenance Guide, a curated guide handcrafted by Invisors, walking through the key tasks and configuration checks worth prioritizing before year-end and into the new year. Once you’ve gone through the guide and have your customized checklist in hand, questions often come up: how to best implement a suggestion, or what else is worth checking before year-end closes out. **That’s where our Workday Tenant Assessment + Optimization comes in.** Invisors delivers proprietary dashboards to flush out anomalies in your core set-up, data quality, user adoption and process efficiency. Using a consultative approach + data-driven insights, we tailor our solution to help address your unique findings + teach you how to use our data dashboards to continually monitor progress and emerging trends.

The guide pairs a full-year calendar of Workday business cycles with a maintenance checklist that links directly to the Workday Community resources you need to act on each task, covering Finance, Payroll and HR in one place. The interactive checklist tool builds on that foundation: rather than scrolling through every item on the full list, you select the functional areas that apply to your tenant and get back a personalized set of tasks, in the order they typically come due, that you can check off, assign an owner to and download for your own records. Together they give you both the big picture for the year and a working list you can act on right away. #### How is the interactive checklist tool different from just downloading the guide?  The guide is a reference you keep open all year; the tool is meant to get you moving today. Instead of reading through tasks for every functional area, you tell it which parts of Workday you support (HCM, Payroll, Benefits, Financials, etc.) and it filters the full task list down to what’s actually relevant to you, grouped by when it typically needs to happen. You can track progress, assign an owner to each item and download your personalized version to share with your team. If you’d rather see everything at once, including areas outside your own, the full guide is still there to download as well.  #### Is this guide relevant if my organization doesn't use a calendar fiscal year? Yes. The maintenance checklist portion of the guide is built around recurring system tasks rather than specific calendar months, so it applies regardless of your fiscal year structure. The business cycle calendar itself is oriented to a standard January-December year, so organizations on a different fiscal calendar will want to map the dated milestones to their own cycle rather than following the printed dates literally. The underlying logic, tying maintenance activities to business cycles rather than treating them as one-off annual events, holds up either way.  #### How does my organization split up these tasks among our team? Workday AI refers to the growing set of artificial intelligence capabilities embedded across the Workday platform, including intelligent automation, agentic AI, analytics and employee productivity tools. These capabilities help organizations streamline operations, improve decision-making and enhance experiences across HR, Finance and IT. Through innovations such as AI agents and conversational experiences powered by Sana, Workday is making it easier for employees and managers to find information, complete tasks and take action through natural language interactions.
