(a) Question : A client is preparing to begin their FDM

design. Which initial approach aligns best with Workday's FDM methodology?

• Configure all legacy data in Workday as-is
• Begin mapping integrations before identifying business

dimensions

• Identify reporting needs and design FDM to support them
• Start with payroll configuration

Correct Answer: C

(b) Question : During a kickoff session, the client asks for an

overview of what the FDM includes. Which of the following best defines the purpose of the Foundation Data Model?

• Storing historical HR data
• Capturing payroll tax rules
• Structuring key data elements for transaction processing

and reporting

• Automating journal entry approvals

Correct Answer: C

(c) Question : The customer wants to create a unique code

block for each transaction. Based on FDM principles, what should you advise?

• Encourage it to support legacy data
• Recommend using independent worktags instead
• Create linked dimensions for each code block
• Use cost center hierarchies as a workaround

Correct Answer: B

(d) Question : A customer asks how Workday uses worktags

in transactions. You explain they are:

• Used for reporting only
• Grouped to form GL account codes
• Attributes that describe and classify transactions
• Assigned to integrations only

Correct Answer: C

(e) Question : While designing FDM, you discover the

customer tracks profitability by product. What is the correct design approach?

• Use a ledger account for each product
• Create a worktag representing the product business

dimension

• Roll each product into the revenue category hierarchy

• Use the item description field instead

Correct Answer: B

(f) Question : Which of the following is true about worktags?

• They rely on code blocks to function
• Each worktag can reflect multiple business dimensions
• A single worktag type must contain only one business

dimension

• Worktags are optional for Workday transactions

Correct Answer: C

(g) Question : In a transaction, which of the following best

describes how worktags affect reporting?

• They restrict data entry fields
• They allow users to track business dimensions on each

transaction

• They limit posting to the general ledger
• They are only visible in payroll reports

Correct Answer: B

(h) Question : A user asks how FDM design supports

scalability. The best answer is:

• By enabling custom scripts to automate hierarchies
• Through independent worktags that can evolve over time
• Through integration with external databases
• Via limiting the number of worktags to 3 per transaction

Correct Answer: B

(i) Question : A customer wants to include product line,

channel, and region in every spend transaction. What advice aligns with best practice?

• Use cost centers for all three
• Create one composite custom worktag
• Map each to a unique worktag type
• Rely on memo fields to track this

Correct Answer: C

(j) Question : Why does Workday discourage designing FDM

solely for integrations or conversions?

• It complicates tax setup
• It increases data storage costs
• It doesn't optimize day-to-day reporting and transaction

use

• It slows down journal posting speeds

Correct Answer: C

(k) Question : A client is interested in combining multiple

business dimensions into a single worktag. What's the best response?

• Combine for simplicity
• This is encouraged to reduce tagging errors
• Recommend maintaining 1 worktag per dimension
