- In the Workday search bar, input the transaction (ie. MP1234567, PO1234567, etc.)
- If you don’t see any results, be sure to select More Categories to expand your search categories. Sometimes results are hidden in these categories.
- If your search still doesn’t turn up any results, you may not have the security roles to view that transaction.
- To check your security roles, go to your profile, then open the Actions menu. Toward the bottom of the menu, hover over Security Profile, and select View Role Assignments for Worker Position.
- Or simply run Role Assignments for Worker Position; once in the report you can select any of the headers to filter and/or sort based on your needs.
