Unified Access Management (UAM)
We now enable Workday Adaptive Planning customers to:
- Create Adaptive Planning permission sets (action groups) in Workday.
- Assign permission sets to users based on security groups in Workday.
- Sync Workday security groups into Adaptive Planning to manage user access across the application.

By centrally managing security groups in Workday, administrators can automate:
- Permission set assignment.
- User access to reports, dashboards, modeling, and other application areas.
Changes
You can manage permissions and access for synced Adaptive Planning users from Workday.
What Do I Need to Do?
You must contact your Named Support Contact (NSC) to see if you're eligible for this feature and also to enable it.
Verify these prerequisites:
- User sync is enabled.
- Workday security domains:
- Unified Security Administration(Modify)
- Set Up: Adaptive Planning Group Sync(Modify)
- Adaptive Planning permissions:
- Admin Access>Users
- Admin Access>Permission Sets
Complete these steps in Workday:
- Run theMigrate Adaptive Planning Permission Sets and Assignmentstask.
- Run theUser Permission Comparison Reportto verify that permission set assignments match between Adaptive Planning and Workday.
- (Optional) Adjust any discrepancies in user permissions either in Workday or Adaptive Planning.
- (Optional) If you’re using ISU user:
- Create an ISU user group and add the ISU user to this group.
- Add the ISU user group to theMaintain UAM User Integrationtask.
- Run theActivate UAM Integration with Adaptive Planningtask.
- Run theSubscribe User Groups to Adaptive Planningtask and add security groups that you want to sync to Adaptive Planning.
- (Optional) If you want to sync UAM data to Adaptive Planning in real time, run theNotify Authorization Policy Changes to Adaptive Planningtask.
After you complete these configuration steps, user permissions will be managed from Workday and security groups will be synced to Adaptive Planning. You can then use synced Workday security groups in Adaptive Planning.
After implementing UAM, you can disable these APIs:
- perrmissionSets
- groups
What Happens If I Do Nothing?
