Important FST Training

As part of the Financial Systems Transformation (FST) program, the University of Chicago will implement a new chart of accounts (COA), replacing the existing financial accounting system (FAS). The COA will become the system for organizing the University's financial accounts in the general ledger, the complete bookkeeping record for the entire institution's financial transactions. As a Tier 1 system with a direct impact on FST, Workday will be retrofitted to seamlessly integrate with the Oracle and Orbit systems. The Workday cutover build is integral part to ensuring accurate payroll costing allocation post FST go-live. Workday retrofits include mapping of all FAS and FAS Sub-accounts to the new COA and POETAF strings across Earnings, Positions, Worker, OTP, post 7/1 PAPs, and Supervisory Organizations, creation of the payroll expense cost correction process in Workday, and updating all reports that have financial data.

Effective 7/1/2024, any new staffing or organization changes that require financial organizations to be listed will need to include a new COA or POETAF string. To prepare for this, please take the following trainings in Workday Learning:

• HR Partner Training
• COA and POETAF
• Workday Payroll Expense Cost Correction Training
