Workday Activity Codes

Activity Codes are optional, but can be used to further categorize spending within a Worktag. Activity Codes can be added to a transaction when providing a Worktag for an Invoice (including Standard Engagement Contract , SEC), Expense Report (including Pcard reconciliation) or Journal Entry.

For example, add AC10001 Activity Code to a Worktag (under Additional Worktags) to show that the expense was for an activity/event where you would like to keep track of all of the expenditures.  A blank key can be created by going to  Activity Codes (gDoc)  (choose ‘Make a Copy’, then edit).  This blank key has all of the available codes available that can be assigned by those who manage the Worktag combination.   Each Finance manager or monitor is responsible for knowing what each Activity Code represents.

If an Activity Code was added as a part of a Worktag, when an Invoice (including Standard Engagement Contract , SEC), Expense Report (including Pcard reconciliation) or Journal Entry was requested, the Activity Code would appear in the Finance Report in Workday within each transaction.  Each Workday report provides the ability to filter the results by the Activity Code.
