Full set: 192 questions

Domain Staffing Models

Answer options
A: Edit Staffing Model
B: Supervisory Orgs by Staffing Model
C: Maintain Staffing Models Correct answer
D: Create Supervisory Organizations
Correct Answer:
C. Maintain Staffing Models
Explanation

The task Maintain Staffing Models is used to create, define, and edit the properties of custom staffing models within the Workday tenant. If a custom staffing model is in use by multiple supervisory organizations, any edits made to that model's definition using this task will be applied to all organizations that utilize it. This provides a centralized way to manage the characteristics of a staffing model, thereby affecting multiple organizations simultaneously.

Why Incorrect

A. Edit Staffing Model: This is not a standalone task. The staffing model for a single supervisory organization is changed via the Edit Supervisory Organization task.
B. Supervisory Orgs by Staffing Model: This is a standard report used to view a list of supervisory organizations grouped by their assigned staffing model. It is a reporting tool, not an editing task.
D. Create Supervisory Organizations: This task is used to establish new supervisory organizations. While a staffing model is assigned during creation, this task does not edit existing organizations.

1. Workday Documentation, "Staffing Models Reference": This guide details the setup and maintenance of staffing models. It specifies that the Maintain Staffing Models task is the central administrative task for creating and editing the definitions of custom staffing models. A change to a model's definition via this task impacts all organizations assigned to that model. (Reference: Workday HCM Core Administration Guide, Section: Staffing Model Configuration).

2. Workday Documentation, "Set Up Organizations": This documentation outlines the process for creating and editing supervisory organizations. It confirms that changing the staffing model for an existing, single organization is performed using the Edit Supervisory Organization task, not a bulk-action task. (Reference: Workday HCM Implementation Guide, Chapter: Organizations in Workday, Section: Supervisory Organizations).
