⚠️ Organization security gotchas on Workday reports
Ever create a report, think you've given the ISU/ISSG all the security it needs, only to find out that the organization field is blank? I've ran into this issue at least 3 times in 2023 alone.
The issue:
- Set up the security for an integration system user to own and run a report with organization related fields.
- There are organization or organization hierarchy fields that are blank when the report is ran as the ISU.
If you check security on the organization fields, they look "OK":
Functional Area: Tenant Non-Configurable
Permitted Security Groups: All Users
So what's missing?
It always seems to be one of two security permissions that are missing.
- View & Get for Manage: Custom Organization may be required for custom organizations.
- View & Get for Reports: Organization may be required for Lookup Hierarchy type fields.
