    • Mobile Usage - iPhone
    You can also configure these additional mobile-specific domains in the System functional area:
    • Worklet: Dashboard
       enables users to view dashboards they have access to.
    • Self-Service: Notebooks
       enables iPad users to group worker profiles and reports for quick reference. They can create, view, and share notebooks with other users.
  4. (Optional) Set up restrictions for remote access to Workday.
    Create authentication policies with IP restrictions to control remote access to Workday across all platforms and device types.
  6. (Optional) Test features in a preview environment.
    To connect to your preview tenant on a mobile device, make sure you're using the latest version of the mobile app. In the app settings, enter your
