Workday is now live at workday.rit.edu
with full support available beginning Monday, January 5.
We’ve replaced Oracle Self-Service with a modern, user-friendly system that makes managing your information—like pay, benefits, expenses, and more—easier than ever!
Workday's built-in workflows streamline approvals, making the process faster and smoother while eliminating forms and email chains.
What's in Workday?
- University finances: All financial processes move to Workday, including gifts, grants, endowments, budgeting, and more.
- Pay and expenses: All payroll, state and federal tax withholdings, and expenses are processed in Workday.
- Timekeeping: Kronos is retired. Nonexempt (hourly) employees, including student employees, enter time via kiosks, desktop, or app.
- Job postings: Staff job profiles align to the Staff Career Architecture project and auto-fill during hiring requisitions.
- Benefits: Open enrollment for the 2026 plan year will be in Oracle. Starting in 2026, all new employee enrollment and existing employee open enrollment move to Workday.
- Talent acquisition: Kenexa/BrassRing is retired. Recruiting and hiring for staff, student employees, and faculty move to Workday.
- Learning: Talent Roadmap, our current home for professional development courses, is replaced by Workday Learning, which is also the new location for LinkedIn Learning courses.
- Performance appraisals: The staff appraisal process moves from Talent Roadmap to Workday for a more consistent experience.
- Reporting: Workday's core functionality improves data entry in both HR and Finance, and offers real-time reporting and transaction drilldowns, reducing tedious manual reporting.
Our Progress
Workday is Live!
We are now in the "hypercare" or stabilization phase of the project.
The first 90 days after go-live are considered a stabilization period. During this time:
- Minor issues or corrections may occur, often related to security roles. If you think you are missing access that you should have, submit an RSC ticket.
- Additional training opportunities will be offered: see our training page for details.
- System enhancements may be released.
- Regular updates will be shared via email newsletter and on this website.
Your feedback is essential — please report anything that seems incorrect to help.rit.edu.
