FDM Mapping
The FDM Mapping Sprint is still racing down the track to get 85% of UVA’s PTAOs mapped to the new Foundation Data Model by January. Mappers are meeting regularly with sprint and workstream leadership and working through questions and concerns. If you want to keep up with the FDM happenings, you can access the FDMResource page on the Community – you might be interested in the FDM Frequently Asked Questions, the archive of weekly FDM bulletins, or some of the demonstration videos we have posted there.

End-to-End Testing for Workday and Adaptive
Just like our FST teammates are working hard testing our latest Workday Financials tenant end to end, the Adaptive team will be doing the same with the budgeting software. End to end for Workday Financials cycle 2 is wrapping up soon, just in time for Adaptive end-to-end testing to begin their own six-week testing cycle. The next step for Workday Financials testing will be Cycle three end to end testing and then User Experience Review, which will occur in early spring of 2022.

Looking Toward Go-Live
Madhu Iyer has joined the FST team as the project Cutover Lead. He’s going to be in charge of planning for the resources and tasks required for us to make that final move from Oracle to Workday. Iyer has cutover management experience from Arizona State and Comcast.
The FST team is working on handling GL balance conversion, which is how we convert Oracle general ledger balances over to Workday and get them realigned across the FDM worktags. Also, we’re working hard on workflow control and approvals, which is a big area of concern for folks across UVA.
