Verify Workday manager sync

Use this when a customer expects manager relationships to come from Workday.

You need:

  • Customer organization.
  • Employee email.
  • Expected manager name or email.
  • Whether Workday sync is supposed to be enabled for the organization.
  1. Open ActiveAdmin.
  2. Find the customer organization.
  3. Check whether Workday integration status is visible for the organization.
  4. Find the employee record, if available.
  5. Check the manager field or relationship shown in ActiveAdmin.

ActiveAdmin employee detail page showing a synthetic Workday-sourced manager relationship.

  1. Compare it with the customer-provided expected manager.
  2. Do not change manager fields unless a runbook explicitly authorizes that change.

You can say whether ActiveAdmin shows the expected manager relationship.

  • Workday sync state is not visible in ActiveAdmin.
  • The manager relationship is wrong for many users.
  • The customer asks which source of truth wins between CSV, SCIM, and Workday.
  • You need Workday credentials, job logs, or sync payloads.
