Next Up: Playback Sessions
Once the Working Sessions are completed, the next phase is the Playback Sessions. During these, consultants will walk the Project’s Core Team, Leads, Designees and SMEs through each business process configured during the Design and Working Sessions. The consultants will demonstrate how each activity will move through Workday based on how the Design Sessions and Working Groups configured the Business Processes. Examples include: hiring, job changes or transfers, and processing payroll and expense reimbursements. Also included are functions that will touch all employees (sometimes referred to “Day in the Life”): requesting leave, reviewing pay stubs; reviewing or changing benefits or dependents, etc.
