New Workday Process for Change Orders on Purchase Orders 

Starting on Feb. 27, Workday will launch a new process for Change Orders on Purchase Orders. This update gives more flexibility in who can create and edit Change Orders. This change mirrors access that was previously available in ShopUW+. 

What’s Changing? 

After this update, all employees will be able to create and edit Change Orders for any Purchase Orders they are able to access in Workday, including editing Change Orders that have been saved for later. 

Before: 

  • Only employees with the Requisition Validator security role could create Change Orders. 
  • Saved Change Orders could not be edited. 

Now:  

  • All employees can create and edit Change Orders, including those saved for later.  
  • Access to Purchase Orders is determined by security roles (such as Program Manager, Cost Center Manager, FIN Analyst UW, and Employee as Self). 

Resources 

  • Access the Create Change Order KnowledgeBase resource for instructions on the new process after 5 p.m. on February 27. 
  • For Workday questions or support, explore Get Help resources on the Workday website.
