What Your Agent Does In Workday

  • Answers Time-Off Questions

    When an employee asks how many vacation days remain, the agent looks up the balance and replies with the date the next batch is added.

  • Prepares Requests

    For a transfer or a change of manager, it gathers the details and fills out the request, then holds it for the right approver.

  • Builds Team Reports

    Ask for a list of open positions by department, or who is out next week, and it returns a clean table you can share.

Ask In Your Own Words

Type it in any project chat, or send it from your phone. Your agent works in Workday for you, with your own login, and reports back in the thread.

  • Who on the support team is on leave next week?

Questions About Workday And Your Agents

Does the agent see private employee data?

It sees what the Workday user you connect can see. Use a role with limited access and keep the agent out of shared channels.

Can it approve things on a manager’s behalf?

No. Approvals stay with the person who owns them. The agent can prepare the request and remind the approver.

Does my agent see my Workday password?

No. Your Workday login stays in your Vault, a safe your agents can use but never read. You can remove an agent’s access, or disconnect Workday, at any time in Settings.
