🛡️ Generate and review Workday documents with an ISU

Workday April 9th, 2023 2 minute read.

I've recently been working on a project to generate documents for worker job changes. In the first version, I used my account for the "Run as" user on the Review Document Steps. (This is a "no-no" because it would break if I ever left.) Today I had a chance to go back and set up it up the "right way" using an integration system user (ISU). It took a bit more time than it should have to find all these, so here's a quick summary for future reference:

  1. View access to domain: Document Generation Results1
  2. View access to domain: Business Process Administration2
  3. View access to domain: Manage: Business Process Definitions2
  4. View access to any underlying calculated fields
  5. View All access to any relevant business process security policies

  1. This one was a bit hidden since I'm only using "Review Document" steps and it was only mentioned with 'Generate Document' 

  2. These were actually documented with 'Review Document'
