What should these companies do?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Comprehensive and Detailed 150 to 250 words of Explanation From Workday Record-to-Report/Course Guide/topics:

Both companies can use the same Import Accounting Journal spreadsheet template. Worktag columns are driven by the template structure and tenant configuration rather than requiring a permanent company-specific template for every legal entity. Users can edit or regenerate the template to expose the necessary worktag reference columns, then populate only the worktags applicable to each company's journal lines.

Separate templates may be maintained for convenience, but Workday does not require one template per company merely because the companies use different worktag combinations. Users should not insert arbitrary spreadsheet columns without using the supported template structure, because the integration expects defined field names, reference-ID formats, and hierarchy relationships. Sharing an account set is also not sufficient by itself; worktag availability, required-worktag rules, custom validations, security, and company-specific valid combinations still apply when the journals are imported. During upload, Workday validates the company, ledger accounts, currencies, worktags, and balancing requirements and then launches the Accounting Journal Event. Therefore, the supported approach is to use the same template and make the required worktag columns available by editing or regenerating that template.

I wonder if option D could apply if both companies are using the same accounting system. But I’m not confident about that.

I’m a bit confused about option C. Can they really just add columns when filling out the spreadsheet? That seems too easy.

I remember a similar question where we had to customize templates for different departments. I feel like option B might be the right choice here.

I think option A makes sense since they can just edit the same template, but I'm not entirely sure if that would work for different worktags.
