HR Hierarchy data now in UWODS

October 26, 2023

Introducing HR Hierarchy

Historically, UW relied on financial org code (fin org) for HR reporting. With the introduction of Workday Finance, fin org was retired and a replacement was needed to support HR reporting going forward. A new HR Hierarchy structure that more accurately represents HR relationships was introduced to Workday. To learn more about the new HR Hierarchy, refer to https://hr.uw.edu/hrbais/hrhierarchy/.

Introducing a new HROrganization table in UWODS

The Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) introduced the UWODS database in July 2023, which provides HR/Payroll and Finance data sourced from Workday. The EDW recently added a new HROrganization table to UWODS that now provides HR Hierarchy data and is ready for you to query today for your own reporting needs.
