Frequently-Asked Questions

Who sets up the award category figures in Workday? 

The campus unit will enter the budget information into SAGE budget at the time of award, and connect the budget to the Award Setup Request.  Typically the budget should align with the categorical breakdown on the award document.  

After OSP and GCA have approved the Award Setup Request, the SAGE Budget data will flow to Workday via integration. 

Campus will continue to use that same SAGE Budget over the life of the award, to capture changes needed. In the near-term, GCA will manually update Workday with any modifications to budget, until the SAGE integration is expanded to cover modifications.
