Optimizing the Supply Chain by Aligning the Planning and Sourcing Functions

Tuesday, May 9th

Workday Strategic Sourcing has a special place in my heart, because it's where I started my career with Workday. During that time, I was involved in the project to better connect spend management + financial planning in Workday, so I'm excited for you all to hear about this powerful combo and how it can enable your team to better understand forecasts to actuals when it comes to spend with third party suppliers.

Has there ever been a moment where you were working on a configuration or setting up some sort of functionality, and it wasn’t completely covered in the broad array of what Workday provides in our solution?

Specifically, have you thought, “I wish Workday could do this one thing…” whether that be a specific type of reporting or interacting with an outside tool that provides key details for your business? Well, that’s Workday Extend.

Extend opens our APIs in a dev kit that allows our customers with unique processes to create custom functionality with the same security, same data, and core information that exists in Workday.
