Workday Foundation Data Model (FDM) Guide
Reporting Summary for Financial Foundation Data Model (FDM) Values
Financial FDM worktag values are easily found in Workday reports. As new values are created, or existing values inactivated, these reports will reflect those changes in the system.
Find Worktag values
To pul a report of worktag values, simply type the name of the worktag type, followed by “FDM Values” in the search bar in Workday. For example:
- Balancing Unit – FDM Values
- Cost Center – FDM Values
- Gift – FDM Values
- Ledgar Account – FDM Values
- Spend Categories – FDM Values
It is not necessary to input anything in the parameters to run these reports. Simply click Okay.
Some worktag types do not have their own report and are found in one of these reports:
- Custom Worktags – FDM Values (such as Financial Class, Location, Work Order)
- Custom Organizations – FDM Values (such as Academic Period, Assignee)
Guiding Principles ‐ Costing Allocations for College‐backed Personnel
