Concept: Mass Generate Schedules for Organizations
For scheduling organizations that use static or manual scheduling, you can launch a background job to mass generate schedules. This enables you to generate many schedules at once while continuing to use your Workday tenant.
When you launch the job, Workday generates schedules in the background for all scheduling organizations that:
- You select.
- Are subordinate to the high-level scheduling organizations that you select.
For scheduling organizations that use manual scheduling, Workday generates blank schedules. Once the job is running, you can’t generate or modify schedules using the
Schedule Workers
report. You can generate schedules for up to 8 weeks at a time. To generate schedules for more than 8 weeks, you can configure multiple future job runs. When you configure multiple weeks, Workday creates schedules independently and in sequential order for each scheduling organization you select.
Workday skips scheduling organizations that already have a schedule created.
