Welcome to the new world of Workday Finance and the FDM!
Please submit any and all questions regarding the FDM, cutover, our new and updated intake forms, and Workday Finance functions either through our General Inquiry form (preferred) or by sending an email to teamcas@uw.edu. We will route your questions, comments, and ideas to the appropriate subject matter experts on our team. Please do not contact our team members directly.
These are the approximate turnaround times for the Administrative Support Team (AST) to complete AST relevant tasks on a given transaction. For estimated turnaround times for specific business processes, please refer to the relevant service area page.
Support for Finance Transformation
AST serves as a Shared Environment for the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) and is the initial point of contact for CAS units with finance and supply chain questions. With the launch of Workday Finance, we will also help CAS units perform transactions such as requisition processing, travel and expense entry, and invoice generation, as well as post-award grant analysis and reporting. We’ve compiled a set of resources and FAQs to help answer questions about the transition to Workday Finance.
