In the past, Researchers and Faculty submitted paper forms to acquire up to date grant information. Administrators and Staff, if available, could assist by accessing PeopleSoft and reports.
- Colleges followed separate processes and often involved a multi-step process to provide data.
- Grants had to email a checklist or email a confirmation to members outside of the systems.
Workday leverages a unified system which hosts all grants information. Researchers, faculty and appropriate administrative and staff members now have visibility into data.
- Data is accurate, immediately available and accessible through reports and dashboards.
- Reports and dashboards have drill down capabilities providing multiple layers of real-time data.
